Description Terry Heatlie 2002-03-27 23:32:13 UTC
The SIM core (API, SPI, and utility classes) should be part
of the NetBeans 3.4 distribution.
Comment 1 Jaroslav Tulach 2002-04-02 08:16:27 UTC
Get the module into standard distribution till feature freeze might be
a bit hard. See time descriptions in
http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=249069&listName=nbdev

If you want to provide an API, it might be useful to ask Rudolf Balada
to add your module into automated API tests (even not part of regular
build). Also expect that the apis will need few weeks to settle down.
Comment 2 Terry Heatlie 2002-05-15 21:22:37 UTC
The SIM stuff has been "provided".  Now we need to work to create
unit tests, apichanges doc, etc and become part of the build.
It is not necessary that we be part of the installer for 3.4.

Comment 3 Jaroslav Tulach 2002-05-17 08:25:26 UTC
The standard name for your module public api should be
org.netbeans.api.sim 

On the other hand it is good that you have not used that package,
because you have no description of usecases and how they map to the
API. Will you create some?
Comment 4 Terry Heatlie 2002-05-17 16:55:18 UTC
We will create use cases and examples.
Yes, this is why we didn't put the API in the public
place yet.
