  • Release Plan(active tab)
  • Review Information
Release Date: 
Tuesday, July 20, 2021
Deliverables: 
  • TCF Core Java and Python bindings, and Docs (tagged as 1.7 in the org.eclipse.tcf git repository)
  • TCF C Agent, Lua example and Building Blocks (tagged as 1.7 in the org.eclipse.tcf.agent git repository)
  • org.eclipse.tcf.repo downloadable p2 repository, includes:
    • TCF C/C++ Debugger (Eclipse plug-ins and features)
    • TCF Target Explorer (Eclipse plug-ins and features)
    • CDT GDB Remote via TCF/TE Launcher (Eclipse plug-ins and features)
    • org.eclipse.remote file system provider for TCF targets (Eclipse plug-ins)
Compatibility: 

TCF API and Protocol will remain compatible:

  • TCF protocol must remain 100% compatible on the wire with TCF 1.6 (it's part of the TCF value proposition)
  • TCF Java API must remain 100% binary compatible with TCF 1.6 (we have clients coding against it)
  • TCF Python and C API should remain 100% compatible (we have clients but this is source compatibility so they can rebuild or use version checks)
  • All API Additions must be tagged with @since 1.7 comments.
Internationalization: 

TCF Eclipse Plug-ins are prepared for Internationaization using the standard methods of the Eclipse Platform. No explicit testing for internationalization has been performed though.

Target Environments: 
  • TCF 1.7 Jenkins builds and tests run from Eclipse 3.8.2 and up, on Java 8 and up.
  • Moving forward, support for Eclipse 3.8.2 will continue on a "best effort basis".
This release is part of Eclipse IDE 2023-09, Eclipse IDE 2023-06, Eclipse IDE 2023-03, Eclipse IDE 2022-12, Eclipse IDE 2022-09, Eclipse IDE 2022-06, Eclipse IDE 2022-03, Eclipse IDE 2021-12, and Eclipse IDE 2021-09.
