WTP Development Status Meeting 2007-04-26
Attendees
Announcements
- The Eclipse Wiki was reorganized over the past weekend and our previous WTP Wiki Home Page is no longer the preferred starting point. The new approach is to tag individual pages with one or more category markers and generate an overall category page automatically. Instructions for tagging existing and new WTP wiki pages can be found at WTP's category page, http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Category:Eclipse_Web_Tools_Platform_Project.

WTP 2.0
- Remaining Europa Timeline
March 2007 - June 2007 Platform +1 WTP M7 - RC0 May 04 May 11 May 18 RCn... Europa Jun 29 Jun 29 Jun 29
- Europa To Do's
- Ensure all plugin manifests have execution environments specified - David to open bugzilla, each component needs to do this for RC0. Update?
- Move WS bundles to orbit - Update?
- Use signed plugin jars - This is not a requirement anymore, but we will still investigate.
- Each component must run the eclipse copyright tool to ensure all files have a proper copyright. Update?
- Component Leads - Take a look at the new New WTP 2.0 Plan document published by Raghu and make any updates for your component. The purpose is to have a good clear picture of what we achieved and what we wanted to acheive but deferred. Update?
- April 6th - May 18th, WTP RC0
April 2007 - May 2007 Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday 30

Declare WTP 2.0 RC0
- Build Status
- Please smoke test and update wiki to declare RCO I Build.
- JUnits?
- Component Leads: please update the exception section of WTP_2.0_Ramp_down_Plan_for_Europa with the relevant info and bugzilla numbers for exceptions to M6 feature complete.
- API Violations Review - Repeated this week now that people have had time to digest. Any questions?
- Background
- The belief is the platform is solid and there is no need to fix, but in reality, when we move to the 3.4 base, that's when the platform is likely to make internal changes. So if we have internal dependencies, we may be broken out of the gate and lose time in M1. Also, make sure your plugin ranges are correct.
- Action 1 = For any violation, open a bug to request API or fix code to not use internal discouraged access. An example is using images or labels from other plugins, these should be copied into your plugin. Also, using internal classes instead of the API interfaces.
- Action 2 = If you do have a clean plugin of API violations/discourage access, switch prereq ranges wide so you can react to small version number changes without issue.
- Action 3 = To be able to develop with discouraged access enabled, we need to update plugin's .classpath rules. Should we turn off defaults to expose all warnings to get a quicker resolution?
- Known Issues
- Investigatating possible issue with API violation scan reports with respect to DTP usage.

XML/JSP Component Team
- Finishing 2.0 contributions including new tests
- Updating performance tests
- Updating tutorials (105989,175052,181979) to match RC0/2.0 UI changes
- Ongoing triaging of incoming bugs
Web Services Component Team
- CQ IPzilla 1373 has been approved. Initial submission by WSO2 has been checked into CVS and in a WTP 2.0 build. This contribution includs the following RFEs:
- Two new Axis2 Web services tools tutorials under the Web Services tutorials section:

- CQ IPzilla 1374 Upgrading Axis 1.3 to 1.4 has been approved. Axis 1.4 JARs have been checked into Orbit. We are working on moving Web services tools to use them.
- 176493 - Making the message / transport pluggable in WSE is targetted to RC0.
Java EE Component Team
Dali JPA
- Dali Webinar presentation last Tuesday was well attended (41 total)
- Continuing with bug and enhancement work for M7/RC0
- Dali name-space change is complete, but is not in this weeks I-Build
JSF
releng
- Investigating improving usage scans and test coverage reports
- Running Performance and API tests
- Stay tuned for a suggested generic WTP project level compiler setting to add to every project
Performance
- Known Issues
- Switch the 2.0 performance tests baseline to be the latest 1.5.x
- The XSD and WSDL tests are not running. Adding them causes the suite to hang. Needs investigation.
- The baseline test needs to be rerun each week to eliminate false "hiccups" in performance.
- Action Items
- Improve the UI readability and cohesiveness of the output result pages
- Improve the actual tests. Why do some take so long? Why do some results fluctuate? Why do some have 160% performance degradations? Are the tests even still valid?
- Allow committers to reliably and efficiently run perfomance suites in the workspace before checking in code
- Add JSF and JPA performance JUnits
