Folks,

We are planning to modify the refactoring framework used by the Java EE 
Tools as documented in 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=261555 during WTP 3.1 M6. 
Please be aware that the current refactoring framework, which utilizes 
the DataModel framework, is insufficient for our needs- for example, it 
provides no preview of the changes (and indeed, provides no UI at all). 
Instead, we will be reutilizing the LTK framework that is provided by 
base Eclipse. (This gives us consistency with other refactoring 
operations, which includes the preview UI.) As such, we are asking for a 
review of this behavior change by the community. Please post any 
comments to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=261555 . Also 
note that a small step in this direction was already added into WTP 
3.0.4 via the preference in 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=260459 which allows for 
the disabling of the refactoring done via the DataModel framework.
And, to be clear, this change will not be committed until after Feb. 9, 
2009, to ensure adequate time for review and comment, and thus will not 
be part of WTP 3.1 M5.

FWIW,

- Carl Anderson
WTP programmer
