Description Thomas Watson CLA 2009-09-10 15:19:29 EDT
Eclipse has never supported updating from one major release to the next. Now with p2 Eclipse will be able to upgrade from one major release to the next.
Comment 1 Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2009-09-10 16:16:50 EDT
Nice.
Comment 2 Pascal Rapicault CLA 2009-09-17 16:59:27 EDT
3.6 M2 Automated tests have been added to ensure that this is supported. At this point it is unclear if more work will be needed.
