Ganymede: Cannot find ClosePerspectiveAction and IEvaluationService [message #329896]

Hello,

I am trying to upgrade my projects from Eclipse 3.3 to Eclipse 3.4. I
got some compile errors about following two types:

For import statement of
"org.eclipse.ui.internal.ClosePerspectiveAction", I got error
“ClosePerspectiveAction cannot be resolved to a type”.

For import statement of
"org.eclipse.ui.internal.services.IEvaluationService", I got error
“IEvaluationService cannot be resolved to a type”

So, where is the “ClosePerspectiveAction” class and "IEvaluationService"
interface located now?

Is there any document that lists all the moved or renamed
class/interface/package ?

Thanks,
Hongying

The "internal" designation in the package indicates that these classes are
part of internal code that isn't intended to be part of the official Eclipse
API. Internal means use at your own risk. The classes and methods in these
packages can change at any time. Any code that depends on them will have to
be examined closely with each change to Eclipse. Because they are internal,
these changes aren't documented and generally won't be included in any
migration documents.

Unless someone else can give you some information on what happened to the
classes, you are probably on your own in figuring out how to replace the
functions that the classes were providing to you.

You would use the ClosePerspective command (placed using the
org.eclipse.ui.menus extension or programmatically called using
IHandlerService methods).

IEvaluationService is now public API (CTRL+SHIFT+O should find it).

Later,
