EMF Forms and EMF Client Platform 1.24.0 released!

We are happy to announce that with the Eclipse Release 2020-03, we have also shipped EMF Forms and EMF Client Platform 1.24.0!

All closed tickets in 1.24.0 can be found on eclipse.org and all “test” bug reports can be found on eclipse.org. Please see the EMF Forms project page for a more detailed description of this tag.

Please note that for the upcoming iteration, until 2020-06, we plan to do some clean up work. More precisely, we plan to deprecate the following components, as they have effectively be replaced over the years:

• ECP navigator => Has been replaced with custom tree support and the generic editor
• ECP editor => Has been replaced by EMF Forms
• ECP repository view => Has not been widely used

If you are actively using one of these components please raise your voice. We opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show\_bug.cgi?id=561018 for discussions.

Further, we are happy to announce the creation of the EMF.cloud project, which augments the feature set of the EMF Client Platform and EMF Forms towards web-based applications and tools.

For EMF Forms and EMF Client Platform, kindly continue to ask questions in the newsgroup and file Bug Reports.
