Tharindu/Asiri, How hard would it be to have XEclipse work with both XWiki Core 1.1 and 1.2? I feel this would be the best thing to do since we do want XWiki 1.1 users to be able to use XEclipse. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent On Aug 16, 2007, at 3:13 PM, Vincent Massol wrote:

Hi (Catalin),

I think the XMLRPC API has been modified in XWiki 1.1M4. Is that correct?

If so, we really must specify in the release notes what has been changed as otherwise users who had XMLRPC code will see their code failing.

In addition, XMLRPC in xwiki core 1.2-snapshot seem to have broken lots of APIs too.

I think we need to: 1) slowly review each modification/breakage and decide if we want it. Also we need to decide if we can avoid breaks by deprecating existing APIs instead. 2) document each single API break in the release notes for XWiki 1.2M1

Last, because of this I believe the XEclipse plugin doesn't work anymore... :-(

I wanted to release the Eclipse plugin today but I can't. We need to decide if we want XWiki 1.1 compatibility and/or XWiki 1.2 compatibility. 2 solution if we want compatibility with both: - XWiki 1.2 doesn't break compatibility - XEclipse has logic to make it work with both

WDYT?

Thanks -Vincent
