To all who have implemented an Open
Data Access (ODA) data source extension, please read on...
A number of enhancements have been
identified in the ODA framework to support additional features
requested by the community.
Please see the following link that
describes these enhancements and proposed API changes in the
org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda bundle version 3.2, for
release in DTP 1.7 (Galileo).
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Galileo_DTP_ODA_API_Changes_Spec
New methods will be added to the ODA
Java interfaces. This means that compiling your existing ODA runtime
driver implementation with these latest ODA interfaces would require an
upgrade to implement the additional methods.
The ODA framework will provide
binary backward compatibility support of an ODA data source
extension, whose source were compiled with a version earlier than these
ODA 3.2 API interfaces.
If an ODA extension has not
implemented a new interface method, the ODA Consumer Helper framework
will throw an
UnsupportedOperationException on its behalf.
For any comments and feedback, please
add them to the project wiki page or corresponding Bugzilla entry.
These API changes are targeted to commit in CVS later this week for the
Galileo M6 milestone.

DTP ODA Component Lead
