[eclipse-dev] Compatibility Release 4.x (x>1) to 4.1

[Sven Klemm <sven.klemm@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

you state that “Eclipse 4.1 will be compatible with Eclipse 4.0 (and all earlier 3.x versions).”

but also restrict that for

-          API Contract Compatibility

-          Binary (plug-in) Compatibility

-          Source Compatibility

-          Workspace Compatibility

Is there the same compatibility of eclipse 4 like eclipse 3 (e.g. 3.6 to 3.5) after the “real” release of eclipse 4 with 4.1. Means that a change from 4.1 to 4.2 is like a change from 3.5 to 3.6?

Or is there a change in the compatibility policy by the eclipse developers?

 

What next?: keep on developing eclipse; it rocks (i start to build rcps with eclipse version 2  ;))!

 

Kind regards

Sven Klemm
