Description Dennis Huebner CLA 2019-01-24 03:48:35 EST 
Hi,
I noticed that you guys are working on 4.4 Maintenance branch.
When do you plan to release 4.4.3? Or is there already an update site somewhere (Jenkin?) with the current branch state? 

Kind Regards,
Dennis

Hi,
The latest version of Eclipse available is 4.10. 
There is no plan to release 4.4.3. The fixes in the 4.4 maintenance branch after 4.4.2 are already in recent releases of Eclipse.
Are you looking for any particula fix?

Hi Lakshmi,

I can't use a newer eclipse platform version for my RCP product for various reasons. 

I' m looking for a 477979 fix 
https://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/commit/?h=R4_4_maintenance&id=f831fd92be30cc567a335553b5568100e650bab1

Now I see that you have an another version flow as the eclipse platform :( 
Was a bit misleading to see the tag https://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/tag/?h=R4_4_2 from 2015

So, I'm using org.eclipse.swt 3.103.2 and eclipse Luna as platform


Would it be possible to prepare an Update site for the SWT component which can be installed in eclipse 4.4.x?

Sorry, we don't have any new builds or update sites for 4.4.x maintenance branch.

You can try one of these options:
1. The fix for Bug 477979 is in 4.6. You can take the SWT plugins from the 4.6 build, rename the versions, replace it in your build and check if it works for you.

2. You can build SWT from source (using R4_4_maintenance branch) and export the SWT plugins and replace it your build. To setup SWT source from Git, please see - https://www.eclipse.org/swt/git.php.
