Eclipse 4.0 development concluded in July 2010. See Eclipse4 for details.
Eclipse 4.0 development concluded in July 2010. See Eclipse4 for details.
As we move into the end-game, it's important to prioritize the issues so we have a good idea about what will and what might not be fixed.
- The general list of open e4 bugs is e4 bugs
- Please open new bugs here
- Our list of features that won't be addressed in 4.0 E4/SDKMissingFeatures
We ask that you do not edit this wiki page directly, at this point. Please add Boris and Susan to the CC list of any bug you think should be on the list, with a comment like "This bug should be a P1 (or P2, or P3) on the priority list."
See here for information about developing the compatibility layer.

Workspace recovery
If in the event that the SDK gets into a state that it will no longer start on your workspace but starts on a new one, you may want to try resetting the state of your workbench by deleting the deltas.xml file.
