Hi
Unfortunately there is notionally and actually deprecated API.
I have been continuing to use org.eclipse.ui.editorActions for probably
more than 5 years.Since I could see no easy recommended way forward, I
raised
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=455985
3 years later the bug has acquired no comments.
Clearly we have to ignore major version rule change rules otherwise
almost any active project would need a major change every release. So it
seems we must have an active detector for actually deprecated API.
Perhaps actually deprecated API is centrally registered for the required
two year interval and tested by some perhaps twice yearly mandatory
build (detected by a referenced repo spelling change in *.aggrcon).
Two phases:
- notional deprecation - the developers don't like it and have a long
term phase-out goal
- announced deprecation - alternative is available, two year timeout in
progress

Hi Konstantin
Did DTP not participate in Oxygen in June? There the class was already
deleted, so, DTP should have run into this in June already.
Note that we announced the deletion on this mailing list.

Dani,
It wasn’t an internal. It was a deprecated class that was removed.
Since DTP isn’t actively being developed, no one saw the deprecation
warnings. A major version bump would have allowed the removal to be
caught earlier…
org.eclipse.jface.util.ListenerList (removed)
org.eclipse.core.runtime.ListenerList (replacement)
Thanks,
- Konstantin

Do you have a bug report for that? The platform usually doesn't break
APIs. Did DTP maybe use internals?

Could someone forward this to the Planning Council, please?
I am currently working with Nick Boldt to transition DTP releng
responsibility. In the meantime, the version of DTP in Oxygen.2 has
compatibility issues. It was last build with Oxygen.0.M4 and platform
made an API change after that which broke some of the DTP
functionality. The 1.14.1 release that contains the fix is ready to
go. Since EGit has initiated a respin, would it be possible for DTP to
join. The change is low risk. Basically changing package names for a
class that now must be found in a different plugin and corresponding
version updates.
Thanks,
- Konstantin
