Is there anyway to obtain version 5.0.1 anymore? All I can find on the download page is version 5.1 and 5.1.1. If not, what are the major differences between 5.0 and 5.1? Is there any reason something developed on 5.0 wouldn’t run on 5.1? We have already developed and tested our application on 5.0.1, but if customers won’t be able to get 5.0 anymore, we will have to retest on 5.1.
Thanks
sebboh,
The prior release is not available from the website any longer, but if you absolutely need it, you can send an email to support at myeclipseide.com, explain the circumstances, and I’m sure we can help you out. Please be sure to reference this thread in the email.
The major differences are compatibility with the latest Eclipse 3.2.2 stack as well as a slew of new features and bug fixes. The New & Noteworthy has the rundown.
We have already developed and tested our application on 5.0.1, but if customers won’t be able to get 5.0 anymore, we will have to retest on 5.1.
I’m not quite sure I understand this since there’s no run-time association between applications you build and the IDE. It would only be a concern if you deliver to your end users the MyEclipse projects that you use to build the application or something, right? Typically you only test on the run-time infrastructure like Tomcat 5.5 or whatever. Am I missing something specific or different to your application?
Do you mean you based a product on MyEclipse, or you developed a project with MyEclipse (like a web application?). I wouldn’t expect any breaks as the releases should be mostly the same.
If you do decide to test with 5.1.1, please grab the all-in-one installer for the most optimized install/experience.
Thanks for the replies,
Sorry, I guess the way I worded it was confusing… Yes, we do deliver to our customers the actual projects built in MyEclipse so that they can customize and build their own applications on top of ours. Our test team certifies that the projects build and run in MyEclipse 5.0.1/WebLogic 9.2, for example, so that customers can feel confident using same versions of MyEclipse and WebLogic. It’s similar to saying that MyEclipse 5.1.1 works with Eclipse 3.2.2, except that we cannot deliver MyEclipse with our product, so customers must obtain it directly from here. Does that make sense?Anyway, it sounds like we will have to test on MyEclipse 5.1.1. Doesn’t sound like it should make a huge difference.
Thanks for your help.
Thank you for clarify, in this situation I would expect any breaks, but extra testing is never a bad idea.
We should be shipping 5.5M2 soon, so I don’t know if you and your team will want to start testing with that release so when 5.5 GA is out, you are all up to speed. We will have some nice additions in the 5.5 release.
