Description Neil Hauge

EclipseLink 2.1 will ship with Helios, and as a result Dali should support EclipseLink 2.1 in that timeframe.  Questions to be answered include:

- Should we have an EclipseLink 2.0.x platform in addition to a 2.1.x platform, or simply replace 2.0 support with 2.1?  I assume that the EL ORM schemas have changed from 2.0 to 2.1.  In order to support both we would need to have a platform for each of these releases.  Obviously supporting both is more work.


We also need to add library providers (both downloadable and OSGi) to account for EL 2.1.

A 2.1 platform should be added in addition to the 2.0 platform.  This platform won't necessarily contain any specific support for 2.1 features, but will include general support for 2.1 libraries and XML artifacts.

Added basic support for 2.1 platform, with model, ui, and library provider support.

Will need to add 2.1 downloadable library support once it is released.
