  • Some small bugs were fixed.

1.0.0 M8 (2012-01-04)

  • Vex now uses the new namespace org.eclipse.vex. Unfortunately this will break all existing Vex plug-in projects which reference org.eclipse.wst.xml.vex. Those can be fixed with a simple search and replace of the namespace in the vex-plugin.xml file. You also have to fix the namespace of the Vex project nature in the .project file.
  • XML Schema is now supported to define the structure of documents. bug 250838
  • The namespace declarations can be edited for each element in a document. Go to Document > Edit Namespaces...

  • A new plug-in (org.eclipse.vex.projectplan) provides a configuration for the Eclipse project plan schema, which is our reference for document types that use multiple schemas. bug 366469

  • The sort order in the insert element popup was tweaked: the elements which start with the given search term now appear before the elements which only contain the search term. bug 362475
