Description Dani Megert

3.7.

The Eclipse project update site (http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.7) lists the JRE execution environment descriptions. There are some issues with them:

1. "PDE/API Tools Environment Descriptions" EE description.
The details section says it is for JRE-1.1 but below there is already:
"PDE/API Tools Environment Descriptions JRE 11"
==> "PDE/API Tools Environment Descriptions" entry needs to be removed or fixed.

2. Use a better name: those are not API Tools Environment descriptions but
   JRE Execution Environment descriptions.

3. Don't use plural: each of the entries is one description.

4. Use the correct EE names as listed on the 'Execution Environments' 
   preference page (e.g. "JavaSE-1.6" instead of "J2SE 16").
    

For example:
"PDE/API Tools JRE EE Description for 'J2SE-1.6'
or:
"PDE's JRE EE Description for 'J2SE-1.6'

I pushed a new feature for the EE descriptions to the API tools repo: 
http://git.eclipse.org/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui.git/commit/?id=f1c5be7135ca5ced7957b6bc0c7fe096ed24148e

and 

http://git.eclipse.org/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui.git/commit/?id=b598635585f91ba828ead56bf06e8a4107efdf99

Kim can we get a test build using the updated feature?

Sure, I have the changes needed for that in my workspace, will run a test build first thing Monday.

Test build was successful, changes pushed to integration as well.

Comment 4 Michael Rennie

Pushed the remainder of the cleanup to:

http://git.eclipse.org/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui.git/commit/?id=bc0f609fef6651ff253dd69994c0a0a7fe116adc

Which includes removal of the old individual features for each EE description that have never been used.

The updated references in the descriptions will be pushed as part of the fix for bug 369402
