<h1>Eclipse 3.5 Java Debug Build Notes</h1>
<h2>Summary of API changes in 3.5</h2>
<h3>Configurable problem severity when a compatible JRE cannot be bound to specified execution environment </h3>
<p><strong>Description:</strong> In release 3.4 and earlier, when a project was bound to an execution environment (for example, J2SE-1.4), and the workspace did not have a strictly compatible JRE installed (for example, only a J2SE-1.5 JRE was available), a build path problem with a warning severity was issued. Since 3.5, API has been added to allow the severity of the problem to be ignored, a warning, or an error. See the newly added constants in JavaRuntime: <code>PREF_STRICTLY_COMPATIBLE_JRE_NOT_AVAILABLE</code>, <code>VALUE_IGNORE</code>, <code>VALUE_WARNING</code>, and <code>VALUE_ERROR</code>.</p>
<h3>OSGi Profile Properties for IExecutionEnvironment </h3>
<p><strong>What is affected:</strong> Clients contributing an execution environment can provide an associated OSGi system profile properties file. </p>
<p><strong>Description:</strong> In release 3.4 and earlier, clients could contribute an execution environment, but when that environment was bound to a build path for a plug-in project, default compiler compliance settings were not set appropriately. Since 3.5, clients may specify an OSGi system profile properties file with an execution environment. The properties file provides information about system packages, default source and target compiler settings, etc. When provided, tooling will be able to leverage the information to create default access rules for system packages and properly set default compiler compliance settings for projects bound to the contributed environment. See the newly added method <code>IExecutionEnvironment.getProfileProperties()</code> and the new extension point attribute <code>profileProperties</code>.</p>
<p><strong>Action required:</strong> Clients contributing an execution environment should provide an associated OSGi system profile properties file. </p>
