Once Orbit contains the latest version of ASM, we should look at updating to it.
To decide if it is worth updating, ASM has a link to the differences from 3.2 (what we are currently using) to 3.3: http://asm.ow2.org/jdiff32to33/changes.html The ASM page: http://asm.ow2.org/ The 3.3.x docs: http://asm.ow2.org/asm33/javadoc/user/index.html The history (whats new sort of): http://asm.ow2.org/history.html
ASM 3.3.1 is now approved. Well, updating is generally the right thing to do (especially if other projects, like ECF, are moving up to the latest ASM). From the looks of it, it doesn't look like any API changed so we just have to do some testing on our end. This should be a less PITA than Ant...

Any update on this? The Fedora Linux project would appreciate moving to the latest version of ASM.

API tools bundles are referencing asm 3.2.0 up to 4.0.0. So it should work straight forward with asm 3.3.1. The first thing would be to update the orbit map entries: # Orbit bundles for API tooling plugin@org.objectweb.asm,3.3.1=p2IU,id=org.objectweb.asm,version=3.3.1.v200909071300,repository=http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/S20110304120314/repository plugin@org.objectweb.asm.source,3.3.1=p2IU,id=org.objectweb.asm.source,version=3.3.1.v200909071300,repository=http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/S20110304120314/repository to point to 3.3.1. And then try a test build.
Kim, can you do a test build for us with ASM 3.3.1?
I'll run one later this week, after we have an I-build.

Moving to Platform/Releng. There is nothing to change to API Tools.
Ankur, we should still verify that everything works fine for API Tools once it consumes AST 3.3.1
Sure. I will do the testing as soon we have the build.

Fixed and tagged for I-build. You're welcome Chris :-)
I've reverted this change for the I-build rebuild, I'll release it again tonight.
Did you release the new changes Kim?
Yes, Chris ASM 3.3.1 was released for N20110406-2000.
