This release features a switch to the Eclipse RCP 3.2 platform from Eclipse 3.1 RCP.  The primary benefits of this change are as follows:

  • A number of SWT bugs are fixed, for example on Mac OSX the text fields are now large enough for the text.
  • There are many many many new fun SWT tricks that can be played, from animated GIFs to customized selections in tables and trees to images and text on a button.
  • There are also many new features that programmers will be interested in.
  • On Linux Cairo now works on all recent distributions so we now only have a single MapEditor implementation that we have to maintain, which means less bugs.

There were also a few critical bug fixes that have been fixed.







Cheers and enjoy,

The uDig Team
