Re: [eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - Nov 16, 2005

JDT/Core
- added API IOpenable#findRecommendedLineSeparator() that finds the line
  separator for the given Java element.
- added new API for org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.CompilationUnit to find
comments
  associated by the default heuristic
  @see CompilationUnit#firstLeadingCommentIndex(ASTNode)
  @see CompilationUnit#CompilationUnit#lastTrailingCommentIndex(ASTNode)
  @see CompilationUnit#columnNumber(int)
  @see CompilationUnit#getPosition(int,int)
- finished cleanup up DOM AST bindings for generics (all references should
  denote parameterized types, vs. generics in cases). Waiting on JDT/UI
  blessing before releasing
- working on CompilationParticipant API for build operation
- working on null reference analysis
- changed some javadoc compiler options default values (see 110964)
- a tool to automate the update of the build notes is available on this
update-site:
  http://www.eclipse.org/jdt/core/tools/jdtcoretools/update-site/
  This is matching the format of the JDT/Core buildnotes. But the code can
be easily
  customized for a different format
- bug fixing
