CDT 4.0 is scheduled to be delivered in June 2007 as part of the Europa Simultaneous Release. Guidelines for this release are available here here.
Release Deliverables
The release deliverables are the same as with previous releases.
- Source code in CVS tagged "CDT_4_0".
- CDT run-time, i.e. org.eclipse.cdt feature, downloadable as a tar/zip per supported platform.
- CDT SDK, i.e. org.eclipse.cdt.sdk and org.eclipse.cdt features, downloadable as a tar/zip per supported platform.
- Contents of SDK available from the CDT update site.
- Contents of CDT run-time available from the Europa update site.
- Release review slides, including project log.
Release Milestones
The CDT will follow the Europa schedule for milestones and final delivery. These generally follow the milestones of the Eclipse Platform by one week. The following are the dates for when the milestones will be generally available along with links to the plans listing the state of the CDT features for that milestone.
- Thursday, Dec. 21, 2006 - Milestone 4 (4.0 M4) - plan.
- Friday, Feb. 16, 2007 - Milestone 5 (4.0 M5) - plan.
- Friday, Mar. 30, 2007 - Milestone 6 (4.0 M6) - plan - API freeze.
- Friday, May 11, 2007 - Milestone 7 (4.0 M7) - plan - Code freeze.
The code freeze date is the RC0 date which marks the beginning of the ramp down. All features should be implemented and only bug fixes of increasing criticality should be fixed marching towards the Europa release date of Friday, June 29, 2007.
Target Operating Environments
Builds of the CDT are available for the following host operation system and architecture combinations (there are no windowing system specific plugins in the CDT):
- Windows - x86
- Linux - x86, x86_64, ppc, ia64
- Mac OS X - ppc
- Solaris - sparc
- QNX Neutino - x86
The download status show that Windows x86 and Linux x86 are by far the most widely used, and, thus, tested and have the best support.
The current plan is to support Java 1.4.2 run-time environments with CDT 4.0. Some optional components will require Java 1.5.0. We are still looking for concrete examples of CDT users that can not move to Java 1.5.0. If you have such an example, please report it to cdt-dev@eclipse.org.
