| <h1>Eclipse 2022-03 (4.23) Plug-in Migration Guide</h1> | |
| <p>This guide covers migrating Eclipse 4.22 plug-ins to Eclipse 4.23.</p> | |
| <p>One of the goals of Eclipse 4.23 was to move Eclipse forward while remaining compatible | |
| with previous versions to the greatest extent possible. That is, plug-ins written | |
| against the Eclipse 4.22 APIs should continue to work in 4.23 in spite of any API changes.</p> | |
| <p>The key kinds of compatibility are API contract compatibility and binary compatibility. | |
| API contract compatibility means that valid use of 4.22 APIs remains valid for | |
| 4.23, so there is no need to revisit working code. Binary compatibility means | |
| that the API method signatures, etc. did not change in ways that would cause | |
| existing compiled ("binary") code to no longer link and run with the | |
| new 4.23 libraries.</p> | |
| <p>While every effort was made to avoid breakage, there are a few areas of incompatibility or new | |
| APIs that should be adopted by clients. | |
| These documents describe those areas and provide instructions for migrating 4.22 plug-ins to | |
| 4.23.</p> | |
