Discussion Topics
EclipseCon
- Tom is doing a demo at EclipseCon and is doing an example with framework extensions and was wondering if he should use M5 or if he can use a p2-ized build. The thought is that it might just work. There is currently an open p2 bug for this.
p2 integration
- we will probably need a rebuild (before the build is already done :-)
- today's build should contain a p2-ized SDK
- running off the bundles.info file and not the update.configurator discovery mechanism
- can't just drop bundles into your plug-ins directory and have them installed
- we will have a drop-ins folder where people can put bundles and have them discovered and installed
- if people are replacing bundles, then they will have to update their bundles.info file
- we can look at sorting the file by bundle id to make it easier
Security
- discussions around security integration into p2
- trust
- where do we put the bundles when it graduates? Platform? RCP?
- contain a UI component so prob Platform
- discussion around who will be adopting the new support
- Oleg is working with the CVS team
x-internal
- at one point we had talked about having all bundles in the RCP being able to run in strict mode
- Tom has found a case where a bundle outside the Platform has an extension which depends on an internal class
- this doesn't work in strict mode
- we need to re-visit how far up we want to enforce the right headers (friends, internal, etc)
- we will add it to the discussion topics for the arch call tomorrow
