Themes and Priorities

Release Deliverables

The DTP 1.5 release will be distributed as follows:

• A "end user" download, containing binaries for all DTP 1.5 components and end-user documentation
• A "extender" (or "SDK") download, which adds extender documentation and source code to the "base" distribution
• An update site, containing feature definitions for component sets within DTP

The following feature definitions are planned for DTP 1.5:

• Model base feature (org.eclipse.datatools.modelbase.feature)
• Connectivity feature (org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.feature)
• Open Data Access (ODA) feature (org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda.feature)
• Open Data Access (ODA) designer feature (org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda.designer.feature)
• SQL Development Tools feature (org.eclipse.datatools.sqldevtools.feature)
• Enablement feature (org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.feature)
• Enablement Open Data Access (ODA)feature (org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.oda.feature)
• Enablement Open Data Access (ODA)designer feature (org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.oda.designer.feature)
• User documentation for Connectivity feature (org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.doc.user)
• User documentation for SQL Development Tools feature (org.eclipse.datatools.sqldevtools.doc.user)
• Welcome Page content feature (org.eclipse.datatools.intro)
• Extender ("SDK") feature (org.eclipse.datatools.sdk)

Additional features, or changes to the features above might occur based on evolving requirements. This document will be updated to reflect the current planned feature definitions for DTP 1.5 going forward.
