Build Notes for TM @buildId@
@dateLong@

New and Noteworthy
  • TM @buildId@ requires Eclipse 3.3 or later for the SSH component. Other components may work with earlier Eclipse versions, but these have not been tested. Platform Runtime is the minimum requirement for core RSE and Terminal. Discovery needs EMF, and the RemoteCDT integration needs CDT.
    Building the RSE SSH service requires Eclipse 3.4 or later for the fix of bug 224799; the fix also requires 3.4 at runtime, but the code contains a backward compatibility fallback to also run on Eclipse 3.3 if that particular fix is not required.
  • Important Bug Fixes, Enhancements and API changes:
    • API: WinCE IRAPISession.CeRapiInvoke() has been added [238773].
  • At least __ bugs were fixed: Use this query to show the list of bugs fixed since TM 3.1M2 [build notes].
  • For details on checkins, see TM SearchCVS, the RSE CVS changelog, and the TM Core CVS changelog.
  • For other questions, please check the TM and RSE FAQ as well as the TM 3.0 Known Issues and Workarounds.
Getting Started

The RSE User Documentation now has a Tutorial that guides you through installation, first steps, connection setup and important tasks.

If you want to know more about future directions of the Target Management Project, developer documents, architecture or how to get involved,
the online Getting Started page as well as the TM and RSE FAQ are the best places for you to get started.

API Status

For the upcoming TM 3.1 release, only backward compatible API changes are planned, especially in order to support improved componentization and UI/Non-UI splitting. In the interest of improving the code base, though, please take care of API marked as @deprecated in the Javadoc. Such API is prime candidate to be removed in the future. Also, observe the API Tooling tags such as @noextend and @noimplement.
