Re: [lsp4e-dev] Release in 2 weeks?

Hey!

I created this to enable re-use on Eclipse 4.6:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=516975

I also submitted a patch to turn the generic editor dependency into an optional one.
And I had to turn a lambda for SafeRunnable into an inner class (to avoid a compilation issue).

Hope this turns out to be useful… :-)

Mylyn Wikitext in the latest release is compatible with Eclipse 4.6, so that works.

Cheers,
-Martin




> - As far as I know, the 0.2.0 release will not be usable with Neon.x, only with Oxygen.x. Is that correct?

> Yes. The 2 reasons why this isn't working against Neon are:
> * it integrates with Generic Editor, which is shipped only with Oxygen, but
> ** we could make the dependency to generic editor optional as it's not a static code dependency (Generic Editor is "only" referenced in an extension in plugin.xml). If you think it's worth it, please provide a patch.
> ** Older builds of Generic Editor (prior to asynchronous content asssist https://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/news/4.7/M5/#manually-create-content-types#async-content-assist , so M4) can be installed and work against Eclipse Neon.
> * It requires some newer mylyn wikitext bundles; which might also work on Neon, I didn't try.

> If Platform releases in 4.8/Photon a new feature LSP4E wants to leverage, it will be part of the game to influence Platform to backport it to 4.7/Oxygen stream.
> If a Platform feature we want to leverage cannot be backported, we'll probably have to write on multiple branches at the same time to support both Oxygen and Photon stream..
