Description Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2006-04-18 18:45:51 EDT 
3.2 RC1

I created a customized SDK for our company developers based on 3.2 RC1. However, when writing a tutorial I noticed that the execution environments were not available for simple Java projects. A little research showed that even such basic execution environments like J2SE-1.4 are defined in PDE core.

A workaround is to include PDE core in my bundle. However, I'd like to see the execution environment definitions moved down to JDT. Otherwise it doesn't make sense if every client has to redefine it in it's own plug-ins.

Gunnar, what do you expect to be done on the PDE/UI side man?

Sorry, I couldn't classify better. There is not PDE core component. Should it be moved to JDT or Platform instead?
Comment 3 Wassim Melhem CLA 2006-04-18 18:52:19 EDT 
yes, please move to whoever component you feel should contribute these EE's.

I'm not sure what that would be.  jdt/debug?  jdt/ui? jdt/core? it's all fuzzy right now.  but a jdt component would be a good side, since there is nothing to be done on the pde side.
Comment 4 Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2006-04-18 18:54:36 EDT 
moving to jdt
Comment 5 Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2006-04-18 18:54:54 EDT 
moving to jdt core
Comment 6 Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2006-04-24 10:27:28 EDT 
moving to JDT debug

Deferred for post 3.2
Comment 8 Alexei Dets CLA 2007-01-28 16:29:18 EST 
Is it possible to expect fix for this bug in 3.2.2 or at least 3.3?

Currently _regular_ (not plugins etc.) Java or J2EE projects created under Eclipse with PDE installed and utilising this new useful & _advertised_ "Execution environments" feature just break if imported into another Eclipse with JST/WST installed but without PDE (that is _not_ necessary for such projects).
Comment 9 Darin Wright CLA 2007-01-29 20:16:19 EST 
This is fixed in 3.3 - the EE's are now contributed by JDT.
Comment 10 Darin Wright CLA 2007-01-29 20:17:58 EST 
Fixed with bug 163444
