New Stuff

• DSDP/TM/3.0 Ramp down Plan for Ganymede
  • We have RC3, so from now on EVERY checkin must get a +1 by two reviewers BEFORE (except emergencies, documentation-only or unittest-only things). Also applies to "incubation". Rules do not apply to TCF
  • Please do NOT only ask me for reviewing, it doesn't scale

• TM 3.0 RC2 Testing Status (as per yesterday's E-Mail)
  • Test Configurations -- especially for bug 231453 from cross-project list
    • (no-test) TM installed into Eclipse 3.4 dropins/ -- That's what we always do
    • (no-test) TM installed into Eclipse 3.3. -- Martin has target platform against 3.3 now
    • Test TM as part of the JEE Package -- AI DaveD, or Kevin; AI Martin tell Dave when JEE has TM RC3
    • Test TM initial install from TM Update Site -- Martin
    • Test Ganymede TM initial install from Ganymede -- AI DaveD
      • Dependencies: When Remotecdt / Discovery selected, CDT / EMF must be installed automatically
      • DaveD: Quicktest on official Ganymede Site with RC2 (today), RC3 again when available
    • Test Update Scenarios
      • Updating 3.0 to 3.0.1 -- referencing TM site, not Gany site -- 3.0RC3 to I-build -- AI Martin
      • Updating TM 2.0 to 3.0 -- Eclipse 3.3/TM 2.0 (including discovery, cdt), use TM 3.0 update site, update to TM 3.0 -- AI Martin

• • Test Areas
    • Connection Import / Export -- AI Xuan
    • Documentation: New Docs for Import/Export, EFS, Useractions? Correct hyperlinks? -- nobody has time

Hot Bugs being discussed

• bug 233461 Refresh expanded Folders -- IFileService#list to return children and parent in one step, how to be API compatible?
  • DaveM: Not in favor of changing API, don't expect getFile() to be expensive, Cache in Service Layer. Against explicit API change. Plain semantic change is the least of the evils.
  • Martin against Caching on Service Layer.
  • Original bug as specified must be fixed - want the fix in there as soon as possible, because it fixes IRemoteFile problems
  • AI Martin can easily adapt unittests to run performance metrics
  • Split up the bug: Original bug 233461 for the original problem only, include a small patch WITHOUT API change but with unittests. Create a new bug for the API Changes / Preformance Improvements, with the 2nd part of the patch. Discuss API separately. Original bug to be committed into an I-build today. AI Martin and Dave to hook up on Skype later today.
• bug 235600 Downrev ftp, local, ssh, telnet features to 2.1.0 was intentional!
• bug 235221 Files truncated on exit of Eclipse -- AI DaveD prioritize bug
• bug 199596 [refresh][ftp] Changing a file/folder's Read-Only attribute doesn't always update IRemoteFile -- is it fixed now? -- patch not yet committed?
• bug 234038 [files][refresh] Changing file permissions does not update property sheet or refresh tree -- is it fixed? -- patch not yet committed? -- AI DaveM create new bug for Tableview
• bug 235145 Remove Create Project Action -- AI DaveD: Document the process of creating a remote project, but get rid of the action? - Martin: See FAQ, TM and RSE FAQ#Why is the Outline View empty when editing a remote PHP or C file?
  • Decision: Action is not ready for products, therefore remove it now or allow to programmatically disable it
• bug 234026 [apidoc] IFileService#createFolder() does not specify whether parent folders are created
  • Update Service Docs and Impl to make the Service create parent folders
• bug 227750 [efs][regression] Eclipse with RSE 3.0 don't start or Display problems -- DaveD: Sounds like should be deferred to 3.1
