Topics
Lazy-Start vs. Bundle-Activation-Policy
What do we tell people, and what do we do for Equinox bundles?
- people have been asking what to do
- we need to provide direction
- if they switch, their bundles won't run in old (3.2) environments
- for instance SWT doesn't care what version or even if they are started
- people can use both headers if they want
- if you rely on something in the new Equinox, then use the new header
- currently a bug report open so they should add a native code header so they can run on other frameworks
- SWT actually looks for the JAR and does the extraction themselves
- will recommend that people just add in the new header and don't remove the old one
- PDE shouldn't give a warning (we asked them not to)
- they are adding a check to ensure that the headers are compatible
- tom to send note to eclipse-dev and cross-project-dev
- tom is looking at our bundles to update them so they run on other frameworks
Ganymede CQs
Two days until Ganymede CQ deadline - are all CQs in for Equinox?
- security work is done
- prosyst is done
- jetty is done
- there is a bug open to make the CQ requirements for graduation process clearer
Eclipse 3.4 M5
Coming soon... how do we look?
- andrew to talk to pde/ui to ensure p2 export stuff is good
- security
- not much externally
- doc review
- working on kiosk login model
- p2
- good progress
- some pde integration
- provide installer
- some tooling work
API freeze
- should we send a note to the community reminding them about the api freeze if there are bugs out there that have slipped through the cracks.
- will ask at arch meeting for pmc member to remind community of API freeze
- are people able to determine whether or not their fix will require API?
- we need to go through the bug reports
- can use api keyword for bugs which require new api
p2 Post-M5
- talk to pmc
- graduation review feb 13
- pascal to prepare the slides (and call on others if necessary)
Package "uses" Clause
- tom sent note to mailing list
- can't do much for 3.4
- might add some timeouts and when we hit them, choose best combination so far
Bundle Format Header
- haven't made changes yet
- framework won't do anything with the header
- advice for provisioning and pde
- decided that Eclipse-BundleShape is good
