Description Ian Bull CLA 2009-01-13 22:45:07 EST
API Tooling should be enabled in the metadata bundle.
Comment 1 John Arthorne CLA 2009-01-14 14:08:50 EST
Since we're not declaring API in this release, what value would it give us?
Comment 2 Ian Bull CLA 2009-01-14 14:21:01 EST
It was for the @noimplement / @noextend that we talked about. Maybe API tooling is not needed for this functionality to work.  If not, I can close this as invalid.
Comment 3 John Arthorne CLA 2009-01-14 15:01:26 EST
I don't care either way, just wondering what the motivation was. I think unless it's an API package the API tooling will just ignore it anyway, but it might give you things like code-assist on the javadoc tags.
Comment 4 Ian Bull CLA 2009-01-15 01:13:36 EST
Since I have already added the javadoc tags, the code assist is no longer needed.  We can close this now, and worry about this when we are going to specify API.
