Eclipse 3.4M3 is coming out soon and with that, I thought I’d offer everyone a sneak peek at what’s going on from the PDE side of things. However, before I do that, I’d like to mention that for the first time, PDE had more bugs fixed from contributors than committers. So I first like to thank the following people for their contributions this milestone:
- Adam Archer
- Ian Bull
- Joern Dinkla
- Kevin Doyle
- Gary Duprex
- Les Jones
- Danial Nachev
- Ketan Padegaonkar
- Jacek Pospychala
- Remy Suen
- Curtis Windatt
- Darin Wright
In terms of what was done for this milestone, let me show one of my favorite ones:
It’s now possible to refactor extension points and have it automatically update referencing extensions found in the workspace. This was a bit painful before if you had to do it by hand and happened quite frequently to me because I’d define an extension point like thing and forgot to pluralize it into things.
For the rest, you’ll have to wait until Friday 🙂
