CDT 9.0
This page is attempt to collect possible API breaking proposals for next CDT release
Proposed API-breaking changes
- Remove all methods, interfaces and classes that have been deprecated since CDT 8.2.0 and are not currently used in CDT code.
- Rewrite error parsers to use a better regex library (java.regex.Pattern is part of API now) because build is horribly slow from IDE stricltly because of error parsers.
- Rewrite ui for debug tabs, all current ui controls are APIs...
- Switch to java 1.8
- Extract CDI so that it does not have to be installed by default
Proposed process
- Select an API-breaking change to work on
- Estimate the impact (code changes) of the change on the APIs
- Communicate that impact to the cdt-dev list to notify possible impacted parties
