[ve-dev] Migrations to VE 1.2

[Rich Kulp <richkulp@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

We just performed some important changes
in VE for VE 1.2. Extenders of VE (with respect to Palette and Override
files) should go to the following link. This link contains migration instructions
and information as to what and why changes were made. It is important to
check because while the old formats will be supported for VE 1.2, when
VE 1.3 comes out they will not be supported. So it would be best to migrate
code/files when stepping up to VE 1.2.

These migrations are moving us toward
API's for certain parts of VE. There will be more coming down the pike
in the future.

These changes are available starting
with the following build:

http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ve/downloads/drops/N-N20050915-200509151449/index.html

The link to the migrations docs is:

http://www.eclipse.org/vep/WebContent/docs/migration/migration.html

Developers should bookmark this link
because this is where all of the future migration changes will be listed.
Any major changes will be noted with a mailing list note too.

Thanks,
Rich
