Re: [eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - Dec 2, 2003



Help:
- Tomcat plug-in converted into an OSGi bundle
- Minor defect fixes

PDE:
- Using new debug launching APIs to improve launching performance
- JUnit tests for main PDE scenarios near completion.
- Defect fixes

Update:
- Added code for restartable downloads (download in ranges; in case of
download failure, wizard can pick up from a file range instead of trying to
download the same large file again); the restriction is that Eclipse must
be up (only works within the same session).
- Removed test code that tried to download plug-ins in several parallel
connections - didn't improve performance. Could be because servers don't
give you separate sockets for HTTP connections - may try again with FTP
(the word on the street is that FTP actually gives you a new socket which
makes a difference).
- OSGi runtime issues - aftershocks (infinite loop during the startup in
the update configurator)
- Working on scenarios that will be supported in 3.0
