| The Data Tools Platform (DTP) project provides a framework and exemplary tooling for accessing database data. |
| This is the plan for the DTP 1.8 release, which is part of the "Helios" (Eclipse 3.6) release train. This is |
| the fourth Eclipse release train in which DTP has participated. |
| </div><h2><a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a></h2><div> |
| DTP provides two main deliverables: a "source" build for developers, which includes source code, |
| and a "runtime" build for users, which provides only what is needed to use DTP. |
| </div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="release_milestones">Release Milestones</a></h2><p>The DTP project is a "+1" project for the Eclipse Helios release train. In general, "+1" projects |
| are release a working day after the base platform is released. Note: the current Galileo build will be used |
| as the Helios build for milestones M1 and M2.</p><table border="1" align="center"><tr><td><b>M3</b></td><td>11/9/2009</td><td><div>Release train M3 +1 (M3 GA on 11/13/2009)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>M4</b></td><td>12/14/2009</td><td><div>Release train M4 +1 (M4 GA on 12/18/2009)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>M5</b></td><td>2/1/2010</td><td><div>Release train M5 +1 (M5 GA on 2/5/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>M6</b></td><td>3/15/2010</td><td><div>Release train M6 +1 (M5 GA on 3/19/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>M7</b></td><td>5/3/2010</td><td><div>Release train M7 +1 (M5 GA on 5/7/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>RC1</b></td><td>5/17/2010</td><td><div>Release train RC1 +1 (RC1 GA on 5/21/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>RC2</b></td><td>5/24/2010</td><td><div>Release train RC2 +1 (RC2 GA on 5/28/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>RC3</b></td><td>5/31/2010</td><td><div>Release train RC3 +1 (RC3 GA on 6/4/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>RC4</b></td><td>6/7/2010</td><td><div>Release train RC4 +1 (RC4 GA on 6/11/2010)</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>Final</b></td><td>6/14/2010</td><td><div>Release train Final +1</div></td></tr><tr><td><b>1.8</b></td><td>6/23/2010</td><td/></tr></table><div/><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="target_environments">Target Environments</a></h2><div> |
| <p>The DTP project is compiled with Java 5. It is compatible with (but does not require) Java 6.</p> |
| <p>DTP 1.8 will be compatible with Eclipse version 3.5 and above.</p> |
| </div><h3>Internationalization</h3> |
| <p>DTP is included in the Babel project.</p> |
| <p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="compatibility">Compatibility with Previous Releases</a></h2><div><div> |
| The goal for DTP 1.8 is that it will be "binary compatible" with DTP 1.7. That is, client applications that |
| use DTP API's will not need to be recompiled to run with DTP 1.8. |
| </div></div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="themes_and_priorities">Themes and Priorities</a></h2><div>The DTP project is has reached a stage of maturity where stability has become more important than |
| adding new features and function. The primary participating companies (Actuate, IBM, and Sybase) continue to use |
| DTP, but they have reduced the amount of resource assigned to the project so that change activity is limited |
| to small enhancements and important bug fixes. This is reflected in the themes for this release.</div><h3>Improved RCP Enablement</h3><p>Improve the enablement in DTP for the creation of RCP-based data access tooling. |
| One of the oldest open requests since DTP started has been for the creation of a stand-alone RCP tool for |
| database development. We have some enhancements in this area (developed with the help of Ingres) we want to |
| get into DTP. These enhancements will "incubate" for a while and won't be part of the regular build, but |
| will be available for user to try out and extend.</p><h3>Improved Result Set Handling in the Open Data Access Framework</h3><p>Enhance the ODA API to support specifying dynamic result set operations and handle additional |
| result set types.</p><h3>Continuing Quality Improvements</h3><p>Continue fixing important bugs as identified by the participating companies and the |
| DTP community.</p><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p></div> |
