Eclipse Object Teams 2.7.0
Primary tabs
Release Date:
Wednesday, June 27, 2018
Deliverables:
Features to be included in the release (no change from previous release):
- org.eclipse.objectteams.otdt: The full Object Teams Development Tooling
- org.eclipse.objectteams.otdt.core.patch: Feature that replaces the original jdt.core with the enhanced variant for OT/J
- org.eclipse.objectteams.otequinox: Feature that adds OT/J capability to Equinox (using standard OSGi API)
- org.eclipse.objectteams.otequinox.turbo: Optional parts of the original OT/Equinox implementation (pre Luna) that builds on Equinox specific API.
Compatibility:
Language and tool are planned to be source compatible, but binary compatibility is not fully possible due to changes in the underlying Java 9:
- Classfile flag AccTeam conflicts with the newly introduced AccModule and will no longer be generated into .class files
- Several int constants in the tooling need to change their values, so code compiled against OTDT 2.6.0 or earlier will have to be recompiled.
The language version of OT/J remains stable wrt the latest published specification (OTJLD 1.3, May 2011).
This release is part of Eclipse Photon.
