What's new in this drop
(Massive update in build-notes takes into account all action between 2004-05-20
and 2004-06-24)
API changes
- New APIs have been added to support client notification of file encoding and
content type changes. Unfortuanatly this API was added too late in the release
cycle for implementation to follow. It will be addressed soon after 3.0 ships.

What's new in this drop
(Massive update in build-notes takes into account all action between 2004-01-27
and 2004-05-20)
API changes
- API in the
org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility plug-in has
been deprecated. See the Porting Guide for more details.
- As per the plan item (bug
37696) the
org.apache.xerces plug-in has been removed from
the Eclipse SDK builds.
- A new preference mechanism has been rolled out and the old preferences have
been re-written in terms of the new APIs. See the
org.eclipse.core.runtime.preferences
package in the org.eclipse.core.runtime plug-in for more details.
- Users are now able to build working sets rather than having to build the
entire workspace. See the plan item bug report (bug
50816) for more details.
- The
org.eclipse.core.resources API is no longer dependant on
classes which reside in the compatibility layer. Only one method existed,
IProject#getPluginWorkingLocation(IPluginDescriptor) and this
has been replaced by IProject#getWorkingLocation(String). See
bug 59355
for details. Note that the implementation of the Resources plug-in still relies
on the compatibility layer and the removal of this dependancy is an issue
which will be addressed post-3.0.

What's new in this drop
(Massive update in build-notes takes into account all action between 2003-10-08
and 2004-01-27)
API changes
- Equinox work on new runtime has been merged into HEAD on dev.eclipse.org
and is now apart of the regular (integration, nightly and milestone) builds.
Check the Platform/Core team web site for more information as well as a porting
guide for API changes. Note: as a result of the changes, some of the Runtime
code has been refactored into a new project. (
org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility)
This is covered in the on-line documentation.
- Changes have been made to the concurrency model and Core now exposes a new
job API for clients. Details can be found on the Platform/Core team web site
and in the
org.eclipse.core.runtime.jobs package.
- The Auto-Refresh Plug-in (which was originally contributed to Core by Jed
as a separate plug-in) has both been integrated into Core as well as been
converted to use the new Jobs APIs. The
ResourcesPlugin.PREFS_AUTO_REFRESH
preference is exposed as a Work-in-progress preference in the Workbench preferences.

Eclipse SDK Build 20031008 (M4)
What's new in this drop
API changes
- Released early versions of new core runtime API (in the
org.eclipse.core.runtime and org.eclipse.core.runtime.registry packages) for
supporting dynamically installing plug-ins (without requiring restart), and
registering listeners for changes in the plug-in registry. See
plan item page for more info on this.
-
Support was added for progress monitors that provide feedback when the current
thread is blocked due to ongoing background activity. See the new type
IProgressMonitorWithBlocking for more details.
-
A new preference was added to the runtime plugin for specifying a performance
setting (Platform.PREF_PLATFORM_PERFORMANCE). Users set the value of this preference
depending on the speed of their computer. Any component can use this setting to
determine if CPU-intensive features should be enabled. The platform job scheduler
will use this value to decide how much concurrent background activity it will allow.
This API is experimental and still under development.

Eclipse SDK Build 20030923
What's new in this drop
API changes
- Autobuild in the background!! When automatic build is enabled, it now runs
in a background thread. This makes all workspace changing API more responsive.
See plan item bug report
36957 for more details.
- New constant ResourcesPlugin.FAMILY_AUTO_BUILD for manipulating the
background autobuild job. This allows clients to query or join a background autobuild
in progress.
- New API on IResource to get or set the local file system time stamp. This
uses an in-memory cache to greatly improve the performance of retrieving or
changing the local time stamp. New methods are IResource.getLocalTimeStamp
and IResource.setLocalTimeStamp. See API javadoc for more details.
-
There have been various tweaks to the IJobManager API that caused breaking changes.
Job.run has been made protected to prevent clients from calling it directly, and
IJobManager.endRule now requires the scheduling rule to be specified as a parameter.
Other highlights
- Several deadlock problems were fixed for this build. Please continue to enter
bug reports against platform core if you see new deadlocks.

Eclipse SDK Build 20030811
What's new in this drop
API changes
- Added experimental API to IJobManager for applying a scheduling rule to a particular
thread. This is a breaking change because it required adding a method to ISchedulingRule.
- Made API changes in resources plug-in to support scheduling rules. IResource
now extends ISchedulingRule, so any resource handle can be used as a job scheduling
rule. New API on IWorkspace allows running an IWorkspaceRunnable with a given
scheduling rule applied. This will block until it is safe to run, and then batch the
changes as in a normal IWorkspaceRunnable.

What's new in this drop
Since we've been neglecting to update our build notes for the past little while,
this file contains a multitude new APIs and functionality that we have
added to the Platform/Core component and is not necessarily restricted to those
changes between the 2002-11-15 and 2002-11-19 builds.
API changes
- In order to help with sorting markers by their creation time, we added a timestamp to markers. See:
IMarker.getCreationTime() for more details.
- Linked Resources - New API has been added to support the creation and manipulation of linked resources. Full
details can be found in the proposals on the
Top Ten Issues
page on dev.eclipse.org.
- Path Variables - We added support for workspace path variables. These can be used in conjunction with linked resources
(described above). See the following classes/methods for more information: IWorkspace.getPathVariableManager,
IPathVariableManager, IPathVariableChangeListener, IPathVariableChangeEvent.
- Build Order Computation - The algorithm to calculate the default project build order in the workspace has changed.
The new API for this method is: IWorkspace.computeProjectOrder. The old method (IWorkspace.computePrerequisiteOrder)
has been deprecated.
- We added basic line information to plug-in model objects. This is set by the parser when they are read
from the plugin.xml file. See PluginModelObject.getStartLine() for more details.
Other highlights
- Classloader Properties - We added some classloader performance enhancement. They are described in
this document.

-
Added new API IWorkspace.loadProjectDescription(IPath) which loads a project
description file from a .project file on disk. The resulting description
file can be used to create the project via the IProject.create APIs. This
method is useful for discovering the name of a project from a .project
file. See IWorkspace.loadProjectDescription for more details.
-
Added API for IPluginDescriptor.find to match the API Plugin.find. These
methods are functionally equivalent except the method on IPluginDescriptor
does not require the plugin to be activated. Also note that the resulting
URL is NEVER a platform: URL and thus does not need to be resolved via
Platform.resolve. (although calling #resolve will be a no-op and not cause
any harm) See IPluginDescriptor for more details.
-
Added new API IResource.isSynchronized(int) which will return a boolean
value indicating whether or not the given resource is considered to be
synchronized with the local file system to the given depth. See IResource.isSychronized

What this means:
- Fragments are now able to live as siblings of their plugins. That
is, they both can reside in the same /plugins directory.
- Fragments living in the /fragments directory will NOT automatically
be found when running.
How to fix your fragments:
- Move your fragments from <eclipseInstall>/fragments/ to <eclipseInstall>/plugins/.
- Nothing else should be necessary to make this work. (e.g. you do
NOT need to rename the fragment.xml file).

Plugin registry caching has been enabled by default. On startup, a registy
cache is checked against the plugin and fragment files on disk. If it is
determined that there are no changes then the cache is used rather than
parsing the XML files. If the user does not want to use the registry cache
mechanism, then there is a command line argument "-noregistrycache" which
can be used to enforce parsing of the XML files.

Added org.eclipse.core.boot.BootLoader.getOSArch(). This method returns
the string name of the current system architecture. The value is a user-defined
string if the architecture is specified on the command line, otherwise
it is the value returned by java.lang.System.getProperty("os.arch").

IFile.create with force true does not handle case variants
-
The compromise is that methods that create files and folders on disk will
return
a special status constant in the CoreException if a case variant collision
is
detected. This constant is IResourceStatus.CASE_VARIANT_EXISTS.
The idea is
that at least this allows the programmatic detection of this case,
so
appropriate handling can be written.

magic 'aux' name not handled by refactoring (1GEUO7L)
-
Added platform specific resource name validation checks to IWorkspace#validateName.
The given refactoring case still doesn't give pretty results (big error
dialog), but there's no more walkbacks. The API comment was updated.

3133 API - clarify IProjectDescription.setLocation (1GKS62X)
Added the following paragraph:
* This operation maps the root folder of the project to the exact
location
* provided. For example, if the location for project named
"P" is set
* to the path c:\my_plugins\Project1, the file resource at workspace
path
* /P/index.html would be stored in the local file system
at
* c:\my_plugins\Project1\index.html.
