List of bug fixes and enhancements in 0.21.0-SNAPSHOT
Compiler
- Use JDT compiler which is Java 8 enabled (Luna M7 for now)(bug 430986)
NOTE: you may need to allow access to maven repository https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/eclipse-staging/ in your maven settings.xml
Packaging
- If you use Java 7 or higher, symbolic links in product tar archives are now preserved as a link instead of inlined.
This is mostly useful for MacOS distros which use a symbolic link to the launcher binary Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/eclipse or generally if you have create symbolic links for root files. See bug 429809 - Add support for 256x256 BMPs used for product icons on Windows (bug 433971)
