Eclipse Layout Kernel 0.9.0

Release Date
Deliverables

The release consists of ELK features bundled in an update site (p2 repository and zip file for offline use), non-Eclipse components published at Maven Central, and a zipped version of the documentation website for reference.

The update site contains two sets of features:

Runtime library for end users.

SDK features for developers.

Compatibility
  • rectpacking uses the phase infrastructure, hence several layout options are renamed to fit into that
  • considerModelOrder.components no longer uses the FORCE_MODEL_ORDER strategy but instead can use the MODEL_ORDER (with works similar to FORCE_MODEL_ORDER) strategy or the GROUP_MODEL_ORDER strategies

 

Internationalization

This release is not completely localizable. Many UI strings have been externalized, but not all. No other languages other than English are provided.

Target Environments

ELK works with Java versions starting at 11 and has been tested with Eclipse 2022-09 and 2023-06.
