Release

3.0.0

Description

There are 3 main themes for 3.0:

  • Add support for Java 9 and JPMS
  • Improve API and deprecate APIs we can not support in the next major release 4.0
  • Improve Library character of e(fx)clipse and make none framework parts consumable for more developers

The other important work we've done in the 3.0 cycle was to move the complete development to github where we've split the project into 2 repositories:

  • https://github.com/eclipse/efxclipse-rt
  • https://github.com/eclipse/efxclipse-eclipse
API Certification

The project leadership certifies that the APIs in this release are "Eclipse Quality".

This release is part of Eclipse Oxygen
