Re: [platform-dev] Vote to stop bug auto-closing in all Eclipse platform projects

2022-02-22 Thread Karsten Thoms
+1 for stopping auto-close I understand both sides and I don’t like to have so many bugs unattended, but that’s just reality due to lack of resources. ___ platform-dev mailing list platform-dev@eclipse.org To unsubscribe from this list, visit

[platform-dev] Unit test fragment

2020-10-20 Thread Karsten Thoms
Dear all, As discussed in yesterday’s SDK meetup I would like to see some real unit tests for platform related internals. Many non-trivial functionality is buried in private methods and are hard to test just from API. In order to add tests on a more fine grained level when solving bugs I would

[platform-dev] How to add a bundle to the aggregated build?

2020-04-15 Thread Karsten Thoms
We are using in an e4 RCP project the bundle org.eclipse.e4.ui.progress. The bundle is build with the platform-ui build. However, it is not part of the org.eclipse.e4.rcp feature by intention (see discussion in bug#559967) and is not part of the I-build repository. ATM we are building it

Rolf, you are right. As a community all of us should take a little care of reading new bug reports (apologies from me, too). Although reporters should not expect that there can be a solution soon, at least some feedback should show that reports have been noticed. And if it is not Platform, then

Re: [platform-dev] CodeMining or Code Mining

2018-05-24 Thread Karsten Thoms
I’d prefer „Code Mining“. I would like to argue that „Mining“ is an action verb and somehow disjunct from the noun „Code“, and describes the action that is performed on code. This is somehow different from „CodeLens“, which is a compound of two nouns. But I’m not a (natural) language expert.

In EPL 2.0 FAQ [1] it is mentioned that "Users and adopters of Eclipse projects should expect the next simultaneous release of each Eclipse project will be using EPL-2.0.“ For such an Eclipse project migrating to EPL 2.0, does this imply a major version change? Or is a minor version change
