I think we should support Orbit and use it for WTP 2.0 if possible. Let's get rid of all our third party content and pull it in from Orbit.

[eclipse.org-committers] Eclipse Project Declaration for Orbit





Project Declaration for Eclipse Orbit

The Eclipse Orbit Project is a proposed open source project under the Eclipse Tools Project (http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/orbit/).

This project will provide a repository of bundled versions of third party libraries that are approved for use in one or more Eclipse projects. The repository will maintain old versions of such libraries to facilitate rebuilding historical output. It will also clearly indicate the status of the library (i.e., the approved scope of use). The repository will be structured such that the contained bundles are easily obtained and added to a developer's workspace or target platform.

You are invited to comment on and/or join the project. Please send all feedback to news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.tools.orbit.

Subject: RE: [wtp-dev] Using Java 5 language features in WTP 2.0

Attachments: ATT8046604.txt

Ok, so I’d like to request PMC approval to use Java 5 features in wst.common.facet.core and facet.ui plugins. The reason is that the API of both of these plugins has been designed from the start to utilize parameterized collections (generics) and enumerations. The API in these plugins has been shipped in a “provisional” state for the 1.0 and 1.5 releases. The current plan is to move this API into the “declared” status for the 2.0 release. However, that cannot happen until collections in the API are properly parameterized and the fake enum classes are replaced with real enums. Note that this is not the only issue currently blocking the API declaration, but the plan is to resolve the other issues in the 2.0 release.

 

- Konstantin

Subject: [wtp-dev] Using Java 5 language features in WTP 2.0

 

On the status call today we agreed to the following policy:

  • Implementations in the “common” component will be restricted to 1.4.x VM levels, which implies Java 1.4 language features (no Java 5 features, such as generics). However, developers can request permission of the PMC to use Java 5 language features on a plugin-by-plugin basis.
  • All other components in WTP are free to use Java 5 language features, and WTP as a project will require a Java 5-level VM in the 2.0 (“Europa”) release and will need to be compiled with a Java 5-level compiler.

 

Maintenance releases on the 1.x lines (1.5.1, 1.5.2, etc.) are unchanged – they are still restricted to Java 1.4 language features and must compile and run on a Java 1.4 JDK/VM.
