A couple options for
editor problem;
a)
Move API
in editor to 3.2 (move our annotation navigation to Eclipse 3.2) and forget
about CDT 3.0.x for Eclipse 3.2.
b)
Move API
in editor to 3.2 (move our annotation navigation to Eclipse 3.2) and patch CDT
3.0.x stream to work with Eclipse 3.2 (change methods to not collide with
changes made in AbstractTextEditor and properly override AbstractTextEditor to
use our annotation navigation).
c)
Make
both HEAD and CDT 3.0.x stream the same for Eclipse 3.2 (change methods to not
collide with changes made in AbstractTextEditor and properly override
AbstractTextEditor to use our annotation
navigation).

Subject: [cdt-dev] Proposal for Release
Schedules
Hey
gang,
We talked about this at this
month’s conference call and I’d like to get the community’s input and call for
a vote on this.
Essentially, we want to avoid
triple streaming. We have a need to move to Eclipse 3.2 before API freeze
happens next month to validate that we are happy with any API changes (which
we aren’t but kind of lost that first battle). We are also considering
maintenance work on the CDT 3.0.x stream for the Jan timeframe. And finally,
we have some sizable changes that we had considered for a CDT 3.1 for
Feb/Mar.
I think this is a little too much
release activity for the number of committers we have working on the CDT
today, and the consensus on call was that this was that we should probably
only have one release in the Feb-ish timeframe. What we haven’t figured out if
there will be enough content to call it a 3.1 or if it could be a 3.0.2. But
we can work that out as we go.
So my proposal is this: move HEAD
to Eclipse 3.2, which requires some code changes due to API changes in the
abstract editor and allows us to start working towards any new APIs that are
coming (e.g. debug). Use the cdt_3_0 stream for the next release towards the
end of Feb.
Toughts?
Doug
