482<li>The Java compiler now uses multiple CPUs when running in batch mode. See bug <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=142126">142126</a>.</li>
483<li>In order to avoid breaking existing clients while fixing bug
484<a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=102780">102780</a>,
485the new formatter behavior (i.e. format comments while formatting the whole
486compilation unit) will be activated only if a specific flag was set.
487<p>
488This flag is defined in CodeFormatter and named <code>'F_INCLUDE_COMMENTS'</code>.
489Clients will have to combine it with existing CodeFormatter.K_COMPILATION_UNIT
490or CodeFormatter.UNKNOWN kinds to see the fix for this bug activated...
491</p>
492Here's its complete new API changes done on
493<code>org.eclipse.jdt.core.formatter.CodeFormatter</code>:
494<pre>
495/**
496 * Flag used to include the comments during the formatting of the code
497 * snippet.
498 *
499 * This flag can only be combined with following kinds:
500 * . {@link #K_COMPILATION_UNIT}
501 * . {@link #K_UNKNOWN}
502 *
503 * Note also that it has an effect only when the option
504 * {@link DefaultCodeFormatterConstants
505 * #FORMATTER_COMMENT_FORMAT_JAVADOC_COMMENT}
506 * is set to {@link DefaultCodeFormatterConstants#TRUE} while calling
507 * {@link #format(int, String, int, int, int, String)} or
508 * {@link #format(int, String, IRegion[], int, String)} methods
509 *
510 * For example, with the Eclipse default formatter options, the formatting of
511 * the following code snippet using {@link #K_COMPILATION_UNIT}:
512 *
513 * public class X {
514 * /**
515 * * This is just a simple example to show that comments will be formatted while processing a compilation unit only if the constant flag <code>F_INCLUDE_COMMENT</code> flag is set.
516 * * @param str The input string */
517 * void foo(String str){}}
518 *
519 * will produce the following output:
520 *
521 * public class X {
522 * /**
523 * * This is just a simple example to show that comments will be formatted while processing a compilation unit only if the constant flag <code>F_INCLUDE_COMMENT</code> flag is set.
524 * *
525 * * @param str The input string
526 * */
527 * void foo(String str){
528 * }
529 * }
530 *
531 * Adding this flavor to the kind given while formatting the same source
532 * (e.g. {@link #K_COMPILATION_UNIT} | {@link #F_INCLUDE_COMMENTS})
533 * will produce the following output instead:
534 *
535 * public class X {
536 * /**
537 * * This is just a simple example to show that comments will be formatted
538 * * while processing a compilation unit only if the constant flag
539 * * <code>F_INCLUDE_COMMENT</code> flag is set.
540 * *
541 * * @param str
542 * * The input string
543 * */
544 * void foo(String str){
545 * }
546 * }
547 *
548 * <i><u>Note</u>: Although we're convinced that the formatter should
549 * always include the comments while processing a
550 * {@link #K_COMPILATION_UNIT kind of compilation unit}, we
551 * have decided to add a specific flag to fix this formatter incorrect behavior.
552 * This will prevent all existing clients using the {@link #K_COMPILATION_UNIT}
553 * kind to be broken while formatting.</i>
554 *
555 * @since 3.4
556 */
557public static final int F_INCLUDE_COMMENTS = 0x1000;
558</pre>
559Note that CodeFormatter.UNKNOWN and CodeFormatter.K_COMPILATION_UNIT
560specification will be updated to include this new possible combination:
561<pre>
562/**
563 * Unknown kind
564 *
565 * Note that since 3.4, the {@link #F_INCLUDE_COMMENTS} flag can be added
566 * to this constant in order to get the comments formatted if a
567 * compilation unit is processed.
568 */
569public static final int K_UNKNOWN = 0x00;
570
571/**
572 * Kind used to format a compilation unit
573 *
574 * Note that using this constant, the javadoc comments are only indented while
575 * processing the compilation unit.
576 *
577 * <b>Since 3.4</b>, if the corresponding comment option is set to
578 * <code>true</code> then it is also possible to format the comments on the fly
579 * by adding the {@link #F_INCLUDE_COMMENTS} flag to this kind of format.

731<li>The batch compiler now uses the <code>Class-Path</code> clause of jar files
732 manifests to complete the classpath. For jar files that are specified on a
733 <code>-classpath</code> option, the compiler follows <code>Class-Path</code>
734 clauses recursively and appends each referenced jar file to the end of the
735 classpath, provided it is not on the classpath yet. See bug
736 <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=97332">97332</a> for
737 further details.</li>
738<li>Added APIs to call the batch compiler from a stand-alone application:
739 <code>BatchCompiler#compiler(String, PrintWriter, PrintWriter, CompilationProgress)</code> and
740 <code>BatchCompiler#compiler(String[], PrintWriter, PrintWriter, CompilationProgress)</code>.

742<li>All search reference matches may now have a local element. Clients can access
743this local element using the <code>getLocalElement()</code> method on the new
744<code>ReferenceMatch</code> API class:<pre>
745
746/**
747 * An abstract Java search match that represents a reference.
748 *
749 * This class is not intended to be subclassed by clients.
750 *
751 * @since 3.4
752 */
753public abstract class ReferenceMatch extends SearchMatch {
754...
755/**
756 * Returns the local element of this search match, or <code>null</code> if none.
757 * A local element is the inner most element that contains the reference and that is not
758 * reachable by navigating from the root of the {@link IJavaModel} using
759 * {@link IParent#getChildren()}.
760 *
761 * Known element types for local elements are {@link IJavaElement#ANNOTATION},
762 * {@link IJavaElement#LOCAL_VARIABLE} and {@link IJavaElement#TYPE_PARAMETER}.
763 * However clients should not assume that this set of element types is closed as
764 * other types of elements may be returned in the future, e.g. if new types
765 * of elements are added in the Java model. Clients can only assume that the
766 * {@link IJavaElement#getParent() parent} chain of this local element eventually leads
767 * to the element from {@link #getElement()}.
768 *
769 * The local element being an {@link IAnnotation} is the most usal case. For example,
770 *
771 * . searching for the references to the method <code>Annot.clazz()</code> in
772 *
773 * public class Test {
774 * void method() {
775 * @Annot(clazz=Test.class) int x;
776 * }
777 * }
778 *
779 * will return one {@link MethodReferenceMatch} match whose local element
780 * is the {@link IAnnotation} '<code>Annot</code>'.
781 *
782 * . searching for the references to the type <code>Deprecated</code> in
783 *
784 * public class Test {
785 * @Deprecated void method() {}
786 * }
787 *
788 * will return one {@link TypeReferenceMatch} match whose local element
789 * is the {@link IAnnotation} '<code>Deprecated</code>'.
790 *
791 * . searching for the references to the field <code>CONST</code> in
792 *
793 * @Num(number= Num.CONST)
794 * @interface Num {
795 * public static final int CONST= 42;
796 * int number();
797 * }
798 *
799 * will return one {@link FieldReferenceMatch} match whose local element
800 * is the {@link IAnnotation} '<code>Num</code>'.
801 *
802 * A local element may also be a {@link ILocalVariable} whose type is the referenced type. For example,
803 *
804 * . searching for the references to the type <code>Test</code> in
805 *
806 * public class Test {
807 * void foo() {
808 * Test local;
809 * }
810 * }
811 *
812 * will return one {@link TypeReferenceMatch} match whose local element
813 * is the {@link ILocalVariable} '<code>local</code>'.
814 *
815 * Or a local element may be an {@link ITypeParameter} that extends the referenced type. For example,
816 *
817 * . searching for the references to the type <code>Test</code> in
818 *
819 * public class X&lt;T extends Test&gt; {
820 * }
821 *
822 * will return one {@link TypeReferenceMatch} match whose local element
823 * is the {@link ITypeParameter} '<code>T</code>'.
824 *
825 * @return the local element of this search match, or <code>null</code> if none.

2085<h2>What's new in this drop</h2>
2086<ul>
2087<li>Added new compiler optional warning for diagnosing unnecessary @SuppressWarnings annotation. This is mostly helpful
2088to get rid of <code>@SupressWarnings(...)</code> annotations which were necessary a while ago, but are no longer useful.
2089Note that <code>@SuppressWarnings("all")</code> is still silencing the warning for unnecessary <code>@SuppressWarnings</code>,
2090as it is the master switch to silence ALL warnings.
2091Also added option: <code>JavaCore.COMPILER_PB_UNUSED_WARNING_TOKEN</code> and problem ID
2092<code>IProblem.UnusedWarningToken</code>.
2093<pre>
2094* COMPILER / Reporting Unnecessary @SuppressWarnings
2095* When enabled, the compiler will issue an error or a warning when encountering @SuppressWarnings annotation
2096* for which no corresponding warning got detected in the code. This diagnostic is provided to help developers to get
2097* rid of transient @SuppressWarnings no longer needed. Note that <code>@SuppressWarnings("all")</code> is still
2098* silencing the warning for unnecessary <code>@SuppressWarnings</code>, as it is the master switch to silence ALL warnings.
2099* - option id: "org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler.problem.unusedWarningToken"
2100* - possible values: { "error", "warning", "ignore" }
2101* - default: "warning"
2102</pre>
2103(see <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=127533">bug 127533</a>)
2104</li>
2105<li>Added the following APIs to support annotation in the Java model (see <a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=79112">bug 79112</a>
2106 for more details):

2155<li>Code Assist: Added API <code>CompletionRequestor#CompletionRequestor(boolean ignoreAll)</code> to be able to ignore all completion kinds by default instead of propose all completion kinds by default.

2157<li>Code Assist: Improved code assist inside an <code>if</code> statement with an <code>instanceof</code> expression as condition.<br>
2158When a member access is completed in this case then the members of the <code>instanceof</code> type are proposed and the receiver is casted to this type.

2393<h2>What's new in this drop</h2>
2394<ul>
2395<li>Added new compiler optional warning for diagnosing generic invocations of non-generic methods. Basically, from Java7 compliance on, a non-generic method
2396may be invoked with explicit type arguments syntax, which though unused are to be silently ignored. With this warning, the compiler will still flag such situations.
2397The warning is on by default, and is suppressable with <code>@SuppressWarnings("unused")</code>.
2398Also added option: <code>JavaCore.COMPILER_PB_UNUSED_TYPE_ARGUMENTS_FOR_METHOD_INVOCATION</code> and problem ID
2399<code>IProblem.UnusedTypeArgumentsForMethodInvocation</code>.
2400<pre>
2401* COMPILER / Reporting Presence of Type Arguments for a Non-Generic Method Invocation
2402* When enabled, the compiler will issue an error or a warning whenever type arguments are encountered for a
2403* non-generic method invocation. Note that prior to compliance level is "1.7", this situation would automatically result
2404* in an error. From Java7 on, unused type arguments are being tolerated, and optionally warned against.
2405* - option id: "org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler.problem.unusedTypeArgumentsForMethodInvocation"
2406* - possible values: { "error", "warning", "ignore" }
2407* - default: "warning"

2828COMPILER / Consider Reference in Doc Comment for Unused Declared Thrown Exception Check
2829 When enabled, the compiler will consider doc comment references to exceptions
2830 (i.e. @throws clauses) for the unused declared thrown exception check. Thus,
2831 documented exceptions will be considered as mandated as per doc contract.
2832 The severity of the unused declared thrown exception problem is controlled
2833 with option "org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler.problem.unusedDeclaredThrownException".
2834 Note: this option has no effect until the doc comment support is enabled

2890<a href="http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=124624">bug 124624</a>).<br>
2891Following API methods have been added on <code>org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler.CharOperation</code>:
2892<pre>
2893/**
2894 * Answers true if the pattern matches the given name using CamelCase rules, or
2895 * false otherwise. char[] CamelCase matching does NOT accept explicit wild-cards
2896 * '*' and '?' and is inherently case sensitive.
2897 *
2898 * CamelCase denotes the convention of writing compound names without spaces,
2899 * and capitalizing every term. This function recognizes both upper and lower
2900 * CamelCase, depending whether the leading character is capitalized or not.
2901 * The leading part of an upper CamelCase pattern is assumed to contain a
2902 * sequence of capitals which are appearing in the matching name; e.g. 'NPE' will
2903 * match 'NullPointerException', but not 'NewPerfData'. A lower CamelCase pattern
2904 * uses a lowercase first character. In Java, type names follow the upper
2905 * CamelCase convention, whereas method or field names follow the lower
2906 * CamelCase convention.
2907 *
2908 * The pattern may contain lowercase characters, which will be match in a case
2909 * sensitive way. These characters must appear in sequence in the name.
2910 * For instance, 'NPExcep' will match 'NullPointerException', but not
2911 * 'NullPointerExCEPTION' or 'NuPoEx' will match 'NullPointerException', but not
2912 * 'NoPointerException'.
2913 *
2914 * Digit characters are treated in a special way. They can be used in the pattern
2915 * but are not always considered as leading character. For instance, both
2916 * 'UTF16DSS' and 'UTFDSS' patterns will match 'UTF16DocumentScannerSupport'.
2917 *
2918 * CamelCase may or may not match prefixes depending on the given parameter.
2919 * When the prefix match parameter is <code>true</code>, the given pattern can
2920 * match only a prefix of the given name. For instance, 'HM' , 'HaMa' and 'HMap'
2921 * patterns will all match 'HashMap', 'HatMapper' <b>and</b> 'HashMapEntry'.
2922 * Reversely, if the prefix match parameter is <code>false</code>, then pattern
2923 * and name must have <b>exactly</b> the same number of parts, and their last
2924 * parts must be identical if they contain lowercase characters.
2925 * For instance, 'HMap' and 'HaMap' patterns will match 'HashMap' but neither
2926 * 'HashMapEntry' nor 'HatMapper'. Note that when the last part does not contain
2927 * lowercase characters, then the name may end with lowercase characters.
2928 * So, 'HM' pattern will match both 'HashMap' <b>and</b> 'HatMapper' but will not
2929 * match 'HashMapEntry'.
2930 *
2931 * Examples:
2932 * 1. pattern = { 'N', 'P', 'E' }
2933 * name = { 'N', 'u','l', 'l', 'P', 'o', 'i', 'n', 't', 'e', 'r', 'E', 'x', 'c', 'e', 'p', 't', 'i', 'o', 'n' }

2988 * The leading part of an upper CamelCase pattern is assumed to contain
2989 * a sequence of capitals which are appearing in the matching name; e.g. 'NPE' will
2990 * match 'NullPointerException', but not 'NewPerfData'. A lower CamelCase pattern
2991 * uses a lowercase first character. In Java, type names follow the upper
2992 * CamelCase convention, whereas method or field names follow the lower
2993 * CamelCase convention.
2994 *
2995 * The pattern may contain lowercase characters, which will be match in a case
2996 * sensitive way. These characters must appear in sequence in the name.
2997 * For instance, 'NPExcep' will match 'NullPointerException', but not
2998 * 'NullPointerExCEPTION' or 'NuPoEx' will match 'NullPointerException', but not
2999 * 'NoPointerException'.
3000 *
3001 * Digit characters are treated in a special way. They can be used in the pattern
3002 * but are not always considered as leading character. For instance, both
3003 * 'UTF16DSS' and 'UTFDSS' patterns will match 'UTF16DocumentScannerSupport'.
3004 *
3005 * CamelCase may or may not match prefixes depending on the given parameter.
3006 * When the prefix match parameter is <code>true</code>, the given pattern can
3007 * match only a prefix of the given name. For instance, 'HM' , 'HaMa' and 'HMap'
3008 * patterns will all match 'HashMap', 'HatMapper' <b>and</b> 'HashMapEntry'.
3009 * Reversely, if the prefix match parameter is <code>false</code>, then pattern
3010 * and name must have <b>exactly</b> the same number of parts, and their last
3011 * parts must be identical if they contain lowercase characters.
3012 * For instance, 'HMap' and 'HaMap' patterns will match 'HashMap' but neither
3013 * 'HashMapEntry' nor 'HatMapper'. Note that when the last part does not contain
3014 * lowercase characters, then the name may end with lowercase characters.
3015 * So, 'HM' pattern will match both 'HashMap' <b>and</b> 'HatMapper' but will not
3016 * match 'HashMapEntry'.
