<p>As per the Target Management
<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/development/plan.php#M4">plan</a>,
we reached API Freeze for RSE 1.0M4.</p>
<p>In fact we have reviewed and documented all relevant APIs, and they
have proven useful in earlier proprietary versions of RSE.<br/>
Yet, due to a lack of public feedback so far we still want to
<b>declare the APIs provisional for now</b>.</p>
<p>This means, that we reserve the right to change any API after RSE 1.0
in a not backward compatible way. All such API changes will be voted on
by committers on the <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/dsdp-tm-dev">
dsdp-tm-dev</a> developer mailing list, and documented in a migration guide
for future releases.</p>
<p>Currently, we see the following areas for potential API changes:
<ul>
<li>Classes and Interfaces that are not meant for public use will be
moved to packages tagged as <tt>internal</tt>. This will apply
particularly to the "implementation" plugins for the ssh, ftp and
local subsystems (these do not define any new APIs anyways).</li>
<li>The <tt>IConnectorService</tt> interface may be slightly modified
in order to allow for better UI / Non-UI separation.</li>
<li>Some more RSE Model classes may be moved from the UI plugin to the
non-UI core plugin.</li>
</ul>
If you want to start programming against RSE APIs now, best let us know
about your endeavours and keep yourself up-to-date. Stay in contact with
the <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/dsdp-tm-dev">
dsdp-tm-dev</a> developer mailing list, and give feedback to make the
APIs better.

(<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=162098">bug 162098</a>).</li>
<li><b>Added</b> IProgressMonitor parameter to the <b>IRemoteFileSubSystem</b> and <b>IRemoteProcessSubSystem</b> list APIs. Each of
these methods, such as listFiles(), now includes an IProgressMonitor as the last parameter
(<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=160777">bug 160777</a>).</li>

<a href="http://dsdp.eclipse.org/help/latest/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.rse.doc.isv/reference/misc/runtime-options.html">
runtime-options documentation</a>.</li>
<li><b>Removed</b> the <b>org.eclipse.rse.ui.passwordPersistence</b> extension point.
The same functionality is achieved by using the data known from the
IConnectorService implementations of a systemType (supportsUserId(), supportsPassword()).
As long as a subsystem supports user id and password, the password can also be persisted.
Persistence is always done case sensitive; Persistence cannot be disabled for system types.</li>
<li><b>Moved</b> several <b>RSE Model Objects and Interfaces</b> from org.eclipse.rse.ui to core:
<ul>
<li>(UI) <code>org.eclipse.rse.filters</code> --&gt; <code>org.eclipse.rse.core.filters</code></li>
<li>(UI) <code>org.eclipse.rse.model</code> --&gt; <code>org.eclipse.rse.core.model</code></li>
<li>(UI) <code>org.eclipse.rse.references</code> --&gt; <code>org.eclipse.rse.core.references</code></li>
<li>(UI) <code>org.eclipse.rse.subsystems.servicesubsystem</code> --&gt; <code>org.eclipse.rse.core.subsystems</code></li>
</ul>
Client code can be adapted to the new locations easily by invoking "Organize Imports" except for
the following additional changes that need to be made:
<ul>
<li><b>Event handling methods</b> for <code>ISystemResourceChangeEvent</code>,
<code>ISystemPreferenceChangeEvent</code>,
<code>ISystemModelChangeEvent</code>,
<code>ISystemRemoteChangeEvent</code> have been removed from
<b>ISystemRegistry</b>, such that they are available only in the
<b>SystemRegistry</b> implementation. This applies to the fireEvent(),
postEvent() and corresponding add...Listener() methods. The simplest
fix in user code is to get the SystemRegistry from RSEUIPlugin
instead of SystemRegistry as described below.</li>
<li>Use <code>RSEUIPlugin.getTheSystemRegistry()</code> instead of <code>SystemRegistry.getSystemRegistry()</code></li>
</ul>
Note that wherever possible, client code should only refer to the model object
interfaces in <code>org.eclipse.rse.core.*</code> and not use the actual
implementations which still reside in the UI plugin (these will be moved
to core eventually, too).
</li>
<li><b>Renamed</b> the <b>RemoteProcessSubSystem</b> interface to <b>IRemoteProcessSubSystem</b> to conform with naming conventions.
</li>
