Re: [gmf-dev] Listing all our plug-in dependencies accurately

[Anthony Hunter <anthonyh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Team, I have raised 135527 Remove
usage of org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility.

We should not need to depend on this
plug-in:

http://help.eclipse.org/help31/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/porting/3.0/faq.html

What is the purpose of org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility?

The move in 3.0 to an OSGi-base runtime
made some of the existing core runtime APIs obsolete. Wherever possible,
obsolete APIs in the org.eclipse.core.runtime.* packages, along with the
implementation behind it, were moved from the org.eclipse.core.runtime
plug-in to a new org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility plug-in. By default,
newly-created plug-ins depend on org.eclipse.core.runtime and are expected
to use only non-deprecated runtime APIs. On the other hand, existing plug-ins
migrating from 2.1 will depend by default on org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility
and can make use of the old APIs as well (the org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility
plug-in re-exports APIs of org.eclipse.core.runtime). While the org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility
plug-in is likely to be included in Eclipse IDE configurations, it's dead
wood that's unlikely to be included in products based on RCP configurations.

Cheers...
Anthony

Hi Richard, 

Yes, this was my mistake.  I used a tool to update the manifest files,
and I suppose that was the version that I had in my environment.  I
have delivered a fix for: 

org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility;bundle-version="[3.1.0,4.0.0)",
org.junit;bundle-version="[3.8.0,4.0.0)"

I presume this is what caused the continuous build to fail, too.

Very sorry for the inconvenience, 
Linda

Hi All,

Some of the runtime plug-ins are now expressing in Require-Bundle:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility;bundle-version="[3.1.100,4.0.0)"

(which causes errors in my workspace).  Looking at the platform, they
are using:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility;bundle-version="[3.1.0,4.0.0)"

This does not cause a workspace error, and I believe it’s what we should
be using.  Or, have I missed something?

Thanks,
Rich

Hi Team, 

As part of the plug-in versioning, http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/documents/plugin-versioning.html
we have a requirement that we list all our plug-in dependencies accurately.

For example if the 'Require-Bundle' section looks like this initially:

Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.core.runtime,
org.eclipse.ui.ide, 
org.eclipse.jface, 
org.eclipse.jface.text, 
org.eclipse.xsd 

It will get changed to this: 

Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.core.runtime;bundle-version="[3.2.0,4.0.0)",
org.eclipse.ui.ide;bundle-version="[3.2.0,4.0.0)",
org.eclipse.jface;bundle-version="[3.2.0,4.0.0)",
org.eclipse.jface.text;bundle-version="[3.2.0,4.0.0)",
org.eclipse.xsd;bundle-version="[2.2.0,3.0.0)"

We (Richard) already has added the .qualifier to the Bundle-Version for
our GMF plug-ins, we need to sweep the Require-Bundle next. 

The runtime team will get the runtime plug-ins done for this weeks milestone
build. 

Cheers...
Anthony
