[Studio] Status update and release preparation

[Stefan Seelmann <ma...@stefan-seelmann.de>]

Hi all,

yet another status update on Studio.

>From my perspective the major issues after Tycho build migration are
resolved and we can start with replease preparation.
* The UI looks fine now, unwanted items are hidden
* NLS (en, fr, de) works again
* UI tests are quite stable (Linux, Mac, Windows) and also run on Jenkins
* New update mechanism works locally, further tests need to be done
during release
* Legal files and license headers are fixed.
* We have stable API (1.0.0-M30) and ApacheDS (2.0.0-M20) to use

There are stil 15 unresolved isses for 2.0.0-M9, I think most of them
(especially OpenLDAP configuration) can be postponed?

Those are the issues we should fix:
* DIRSTUDIO-1038: Dispose the various org.eclipse.swt.graphics.* objects
* DIRSTUDIO-1014: Cannot remove the 'finished operations' in the
progress pan

The update of help plugins content I'd suggest to postpone ;)
* DIRSTUDIO-1008: Update and cleanup help plugins

Then finally I'll work on those and try to make the release:
* DIRSTUDIO-1024: Define release process
* DIRSTUDIO-1023: Generate P2 repository / update site

Are there any other blockers?

I'll also go through Jira and update/close issues that are probably
fixed with Luna (Crashes with Linux GTK and Yosemite).

Kind Regards,
Stefan

Great job, Stefan !

I can work on that one. Not all of those swt.graphics.* classes need to
be disposed :

Color        -> dispose()
DeviceData   -> no
Image        -> dispose()
ImageData    -> no
ImageLoader  -> no
Font         -> dispose()
FontData     -> no
FontMetric   -> no
GC           -> dispose()
Point        -> no
Rectangle    -> no
RGB          -> no

Not that I know.

Thanks !

FTR, I'm making progress on the OpenLDAP configuration plugin :
- I now have a common Table widget in common.ui that I can use for many
multi-value attributes
- The OpenLdap Tuning page is almost completed, with 4 sections :
network, Index limits, Ldap limits and concurrency parameters
- The Overview page is done : it allows users to configure some basic
elements (ServerID, config dir, Log level and directory, pid file) and
have some links on the other pages

What remains to be done is :
- migrate the Security related attributes which are currently in the
Options page to the Security page
- Add an Overlay page to provide some configuration elements for
existing overlays
- review the Database page

and more important :
- review the ACL widget
- check that we can work with a configuration directory, and not only
with a connected remote server
- add a way to check the modified configuration before injecting it into
a remote server (some parameters are to be injected before some others,
othewise we would get a failure). In any case, we should be able to push
the complete configuration, or nothing.

Anyway, all those changes will be injected in the next revision, not
this one.

Thanks Stefan!

Release preparation and figuring out the process works quite well. I'll
be busy the next days, I'll continue on Thursday and am confident to be
able to start a vote next weekend.

Kind Regards,
Stefan
