I am now seeing many errors in "plugin.xml" files, where no errors previously 
existed.  I'm curious as to why this is happening.

List of Problems
Comment 2 Wassim Melhem CLA 2004-10-26 12:53:44 EDT 
We have upped the default severity of several important compiler flgs, 
particularly ones that will prevent your plugin/extension from running.

Are you suggesting that the warnings are bogus?
Comment 3 Wassim Melhem CLA 2004-10-26 13:10:47 EDT 
Looking at the problems, your plugin.xml should not have the <packages> 
element anymore as it has not been used since 3.0.
Also some of the Platform/UI schemas, e.g. the one for 'commands' need to be 
updated.

You can lower the severity of these problems to IGNORE if you want, but these 
problems should be addressed.

General problems with the workbench.
Comment 5 Douglas Pollock CLA 2004-10-26 14:24:59 EDT 
I've corrected most of these.  However, there are still two outstanding issues: 
1.) It would be nice to be able to disable these errors for our test plug-in.  
(Bug 77042). 
2.) I don't understand why "test" is being listed as an illegal child element 
of enablement.  This should be a valid include from the 
"org.eclipse.core.expressions" schemas.  Unless I missing something...?  (Bug 
77043)
Comment 6 Douglas Pollock CLA 2004-10-26 14:34:03 EDT 
I've committed a fix for all the errors that are not covered by those two bugs.  
As a workaround, the following settings will remove the remaining errors: 
 
Required attributes not defined: Error -> Warning 
Illegal elements:                Error -> Warning
Comment 7 Douglas Pollock CLA 2004-10-28 09:15:02 EDT 
It is unlikely that the remainder of this bug will be fixed for M3, but it 
should be fixed for 3.1.

*** Bug 78158 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 9 Douglas Pollock CLA 2004-11-10 13:12:19 EST 
I have updated the per-project PDE compiler settings for "org.eclipse.ui.tests" 
to change the settings mentioned in comment #6.  However, one of those settings 
shouldn't be required, and is waiting for Bug 77043 to be resolved by PDE.

this has been a long time ago
