Release

4.0.0

Description

This release comprisies the TM Terminal implementation and the legacy Remote System Explorer (RSE).

TM Terminal has been merged with the TCF Terminal implementation to form a unified VT100/ANSI terminal emulator package. It supports a range of connector types, such as Local, SSH, and Telnet, as well as integration with the org.eclipse.remote framework.

RSE is now considered legacy code and this release only contains minor bug fixes. The RSE version will remain at 3.7.

API Certification

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

End of Life

RSE is now considered deprecated and the goal is to eventually replace it with org.eclipse.remote. However there are still a number of stakeholders using RSE, so it will continue to be included in the TM release while it is being maintained.
