| |
| <p>Plans do not materialize out of nowhere, nor are they entirely static. To |
| ensure the planning process is transparent and open to the entire Eclipse |
| community, plans are posted in an embryonic form and then revised from time to |
| time throughout the release cycle. </p> |
| |
| <p>The first part of the plan deals with the important matters of release |
| deliverables, release milestones, target operating environments, and |
| release-to-release compatibility. These are all things that need to be clear |
| for any release, even if no features were to change. </p> |
| |
| <p>The remainder of the plan consists of plan items for the components under |
| the Eclipse MDT project. Each plan item covers a feature or API that is to be |
| added, or some aspect that is to be improved. Each plan item has its own entry |
| in the Eclipse <span class=SpellE>bugzilla</span> database, with a title and a |
| concise summary (usually a single paragraph) that explains the work item at a |
| suitably high enough level so that everyone can readily understand what the |
| work item is without having to understand the nitty-gritty detail. </p> |
| |
| <p>Not all plan items represent the same amount of work; some may be quite |
| large, others, quite small. Some plan items may involve work that is localized |
| to a single subsystem; others may involve coordinated changes across several |
| projects within the same top-level project; and others may involve coordination |
| with other top-level projects. Although some plan items are for work that is |
| more pressing that others, the plan items appear in no particular order. </p> |
| |
| <p>Fixing bugs, improving test coverage, documentation, examples, performance |
| tuning, usability, etc. are considered routine ongoing maintenance activities |
| and are not included in this plan unless they would also involve a significant |
| change to the API or feature set, or involve a significant amount of work. The |
| intent of the plan is to account for all interesting feature work.</p> |
| |

| |
| <p>The 1.1 release is targeted for late June 2008. All release deliverables |
| will be available for download as soon as the release has been tested and |
| validated in the target operating configurations listed below.</p> |
| |
| <h2><a name="_Target_Operating_Environments"></a>Target Operating Environments</h2> |
| |
| <p>In order to remain current, each release of an Eclipse project targets |
| reasonably current versions of underlying operating environments and other |
| Eclipse projects on which it depends. </p> |
| |
| <p>Most of Eclipse is "pure" <span class=SpellE>Java<sup><span |
| style='font-size:9.5pt'>TM</span></sup></span> code and has no direct |
| dependence on the underlying operating system. The chief dependence is on the |
| Eclipse Platform, and on the Java 2 Platform that runs it.</p> |
| |
| <p>The MDT 1.1 release depends on the following:</p> |
| |
| <ul type=disc> |
| <li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; |
| mso-list:l4 level1 lfo10;tab-stops:list .5in'><span style='font-size:10.0pt; |
| font-family:Arial'>Java 2 Platform 1.5<o:p></o:p></span></li> |
| <li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; |
| mso-list:l4 level1 lfo10;tab-stops:list .5in'><span style='font-size:10.0pt; |
| font-family:Arial'>Eclipse Platform 3.4<o:p></o:p></span></li> |
| <li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; |
| mso-list:l4 level1 lfo10;tab-stops:list .5in'><span style='font-size:10.0pt; |
| font-family:Arial'>EMF 2.4<o:p></o:p></span></li> |
| <li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; |

| font-family:Arial'>GMF 2.1<o:p></o:p></span></li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p>The 1.1 release of MDT is designed to run on any configuration supporting |
| the above components.</p> |
| |
| <p>The Eclipse Platform runs in a variety of operating environments. Testing is |
| focused on a handful of popular <span class=header>combinations of operating |
| system and Java 2 Platform; these are our </span><em><span style='font-family: |
| Arial'>reference platforms</span></em><span class=header>. Eclipse undoubtedly |
| runs fine in many operating environments beyond the reference platforms we |
| test. However, since we do not systematically test them we cannot vouch for |
| them. Problems encountered when running Eclipse on non-reference platform that |
| cannot be recreated on any reference platform will be given lower priority than |
| problems with running Eclipse on a reference platform.</span></p> |

| |
| <h4><span style='font-family:Arial'>Internationalization<o:p></o:p></span></h4> |
| |
| <p>Eclipse is designed as the basis for internationalized products. The user interface |
| elements provided by the various Eclipse projects, including dialogs and error |
| messages, are externalized. The English strings for MDT are provided as the |
| default resource bundles. Translations are not provided with this release. |
| However, the plug-in fragment mechanism provides the means by which |
| translations into any number of other languages can be incorporated.</p> |

| <h2><a name="_Compatibility_with_Previous"></a>Compatibility with Previous |
| Releases</h2> |
| |
| <h3>Compatibility of EODM 1.0 with 0.9</h3> |
| |
| <p>The EODM 1.0 component of Eclipse MDT will be compatible with EODM 0.9, |
| except in those areas noted in the <i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>EODM |
| 1.0 Migration Guide</i>.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>API Contract Compatibility:</b> EODM 1.0 will be upwards |
| contract-compatible with EODM 0.9 except in those areas noted in the <i>EODM |
| 1.0 Migration</i><i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'> Guide</i>. Programs |
| that use affected APIs and extension points will need to be ported to EODM 1.0 |
| APIs. Downward contract compatibility is not supported. There is no guarantee |
| that compliance with EODM 1.0 APIs would ensure compliance with EODM 0.9 APIs. |
| Refer to <i><a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Evolving_Java-based_APIs">Evolving |
| Java-based APIs</a></i> for a discussion of the kinds of API changes that |
| maintain contract compatibility.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Binary (plug-in) Compatibility:</b> EODM 1.0 will be upwards |
| binary-compatible with EODM 0.9 except in those areas noted in the <i>EODM 1.0 |
| Migration</i><i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'> Guide</i>. Downward plug-in |
| compatibility is not supported: plug-ins compiled against EODM 1.0 will likely |
| be unusable with EODM 0.9. Refer to <i><a |
| href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Evolving_Java-based_APIs">Evolving Java-based |
| APIs</a></i> for a discussion of the kinds of API changes that maintain binary |
| compatibility.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Source Compatibility:</b> Source files written to use EODM 0.9 APIs will |
| usually compile and run successfully against EODM 1.0 APIs, although this |
| cannot be guaranteed. In some cases, it may be necessary to make minor changes |
| to the source code to disambiguate things like imports or overloaded method |
| invocations. Downward source compatibility is not supported. If source files |
| use new APIs, they will not be usable with earlier versions.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Workspace Compatibility:</b> EODM 1.0 will be upwards |
| workspace-compatible with EODM 0.9 unless noted. This means that workspaces and |
| projects created by an Eclipse with EODM 0.9 installed can be successfully |
| opened by an Eclipse with EODM 1.0 installed. This includes both hidden |
| metadata, which is localized to a particular workspace, as well as metadata |
| files found within a workspace project, which may propagate between workspaces |
| via file copying or team repositories. User interface session state may be |
| discarded when a workspace is upgraded. Downward workspace compatibility is not |
| supported. Metadata files created (or overwritten) by the newer version will |
| generally be unusable with older versions.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Non-compliant usage of API's</b>: All non-API methods and classes, and |
| certainly everything in a package with "internal" in its name, are |
| considered implementation details which may vary between operating environment |
| and are subject to change without notice. Client plug-ins that directly <span |
| class=GramE>depend</span> on anything other than what is specified in the API |
| are inherently unsupportable and receive no guarantees about compatibility |
| within a single release much less with an earlier releases. Refer to <i><a |

| except in those areas noted in the <i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>UML2 |
| 2.2 Migration Guide</i>.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>API Contract Compatibility:</b> UML2 2.2 will be upwards |
| contract-compatible with UML2 2.1 except in those areas noted in the <i>UML2 |
| 2.2 Migration</i><i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'> Guide</i>. Programs |
| that use affected APIs and extension points will need to be ported to UML2 2.2 |
| APIs. Downward contract compatibility is not supported. There is no guarantee |
| that compliance with UML2 2.2 APIs would ensure compliance with UML2 2.1 APIs. |

| |
| <p><b>Source Compatibility:</b> Source files written to use UML2 2.1 APIs will |

| use new APIs, they will not be usable with earlier versions.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Workspace Compatibility:</b> UML2 2.2 will be upwards |
| workspace-compatible with UML2 2.1 unless noted. This means that workspaces and |
| projects created by an Eclipse with UML2 2.1 installed can be successfully |
| opened by an Eclipse with UML2 2.2 installed. This includes both hidden |
| metadata, which is localized to a particular workspace, as well as metadata |

| via file copying or team repositories. User interface session state may be |
| discarded when a workspace is upgraded. Downward workspace compatibility is not |
| supported. Metadata files created (or overwritten) by the newer version will |
| generally be unusable with older versions.</p> |
| |
| <p><b>Non-compliant usage of API's</b>: All non-API methods and classes, and certainly |
| everything in a package with "internal" in its name, are considered |
| implementation details which may vary between operating environment and are |
| subject to change without notice. Client plug-ins that directly <span |
