Re: [eclipse-pmc] Request to correct Ant/External tool bundle version numbers

I agree - we need a guidline to follow for the 3.4 release, and we need to 
find the right way to expose this relevant information to developers in 
the IDE.

I also think this is useful, as an indication. Now component owners are 
the ones understanding the contract changes beyond signature changes.

The thing is that we are late in the game to perform such changes, and we 
need to agree that these are to be treated as API changes. 
I am sensible to the fact that reverting may cause more badness than 
leaving it in. I am collecting data on this right now.

However, no more of these changes should occur beyond Ant - unless the PMC 
told you so.

I don't think this warning is useless... it is useful information.

The tooling knows that no API changes have been made to a bundle, and yet 
there is a minor version change. This is useful information. I think we 
should enhance API tooling to flag this specific case as a warning rather 
than an error (by default). Developers could choose to set this problem 
severity to "ignore".

This means that the check made by API tools on the minor version is 
useless and should be removed.

Given the reactions in the community, I would vote to live with the few 
inconsistencies, and revert to plug-in version numbers from M6.

[eclipse-pmc] Request to correct Ant/External tool bundle version numbers








GOALS/BENEFITS:
Correct the version of Ant and External tools plug-ins in the 3.4 release.

ASSOCIATED BUGS:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=220385
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=231305

RISKS:
Bundles that have incremented their version requirement on these bundles 
will be broken.

PERFORMANCE IMPACT:
none

DESCRIPTION:
The following bundles incorrectly had their minor version numbers 
incremented during the 3.4 release, when in fact there were no API 
additions. Propose to correct the bundle versions to reflect this.

org.eclipse.ant.core:           should be 3.1.300 (and was incorrectly 
3.2.0)
org.eclipse.ant.ui:             should be 3.2.300 (and was incorrectly 
3.3.0)
org.eclipse.ui.externaltools:   should be 3.1.300 (and was incorrectly 
3.2.0)

NOTES:
There are other bundles in the same situation (for example, I know of 
org.eclipse.pde.core), so we should decide on how we are going to treat 
this problem in general for the 3.4 release.
