Enhancing Developer's Understanding and Remediation of API Tool Errors in Eclipse

Vikas Chandra (IBM)

API tool errors frequently pose challenges for developers working in the Eclipse environment. These errors often lead to confusion and frustration as developers struggle to comprehend their underlying causes, prevention methods, and potential solutions. In this session, I  aim to address these concerns by providing valuable insights into API tool errors, enabling developers to gain a deeper understanding of their implications and equipping them with the necessary knowledge to navigate and mitigate these issues effectively.

Hitchhiker’s guide to Eclipse PDE project development in VSCode

Mattia Dal Ben (Eurotech)

In this talk we’ll cover how we, in the Eclipse Kura team (an Eclipse PDE-based project), switched from an Eclipse IDE-only development environment to supporting a more diverse set of tools and popular editors such as VSCode, Neovim and Emacs. The goal of this talk is to provide the audience with the necessary instruments and know-how to follow our footstep and showcase the benefits (and limitations) of this kind of setup.

What's new in PDE - From Manifest-First to Code-First

Christoph Laeubrich (Self-employed)
Hannes Wellmann

In the past PDE was exclusivly focused on the so called manifest-first aproach, that is you maintain your osgi-manifest by hand, but with the 2023-06 release PDE now supports a new code-first aproach where the manifest is generated automatically, but still retains the tools you know and allows even a mixed aproach for easy migration (no "big-bang" required).

Migrating from PDE to Bndtools in Practice

Amit Kumar Mondal (Deutsche Telekom AG)
Jochen Hiller (Deutsche Telekom AG)

QIVICON is an Eclipse SmartHome based solution from Deutsche Telekom AG. It utilises OSGi to provide a modular Java runtime.

Since the beginning, QIVICON leveraged Eclipse PDE with Maven & Eclipse Tycho as its build technology but over the time, the complexity increased. It became hard to get an overview and manage the runtime and build dependencies. Especially maintaining target configurations for IDE and CI/CD build, having different embedded gateways for installation increased complexity significantly.
