Aug 1, 2025August 2025 (2025-08) focused on improving code maintainability and release readiness for the Eclipse PDE project. Key work delivered includes an immutability refactor in GatherUnusedDependenciesOperation by making SearchEngine and IJavaSearchScope fields final, clarifying intent and reducing the risk of unintended reassignment. Targeted code cleanup was also performed in the PDE UI module. Release readiness was advanced by bumping versions for PDE 4.37/4.38 streams across components (templates tests at 4.37, org.eclipse.pde.ua.ui at 4.37, the 4.38 stream MANIFEST.MF, and the org.eclipse.pde.doc.user plugin) to align streams and support a smooth release. These changes reduce lifecycle risk, streamline release pipelines, and improve long-term maintainability.
