Grid Plans [message #16820] Fri, 10 November 2006 15:59 Go to next message

I saw some summer postings which made very loose references to timelines for
grid-related topics. It sounded very open at the time, and I am wondering
whether plans have been firmed up at all.

More specifically, are their rough estimates for the following ..

1) Moving the Grid from Alpha to Beta or Production within the Nebula
Project
2) Graduating the Grid into SWT and the main Eclipse Platform
3) Releasing early versions of the Grid Viewer

Is this the right place to ask such questions? As you can probably infer I
am excited about the possibilities the Grid has to offer and anxious to
learn more.

Thanks in advance.

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

1.) Yes this will coincide with the main 3.3 release.
2.) This is really up to the SWT guys. If it does happen I wouldn't
expect it until post 3.3.
3.) There has been alot of good work in JFace 3.3 that will make this
easy. As soon as this stuff has been committed to JFace I will release
the associated GridViewer. In other words - soon.

Yea this is definitely the right place to ask. Specifically for #1 we
should be more explicit on the project page too.

Regards,
-Chris

I'll restart my work on this next week and my hope is to have
Widget-Independency in JFace as of M4.
