Re: [jdt-dev] Removing Java 11 marketplace solution and update site
Hi Philippe

Is it good enough for you if we restore the update site only?

Hi Dani,

Both of those bugs are fixed/closed from the point of view of the Eclipse compiler. All of us out there now discover that we have lots of split packages (in our code and in our dependencies) that we need to deal with before moving to Eclipse 4.11, so from our side the problem is not fixed yet.

We are using Java 11 and cannot try with Java 8.

Anyway, we have now moved the Java 11 support plug-ins to our own internal update site so we can continue working with 4.9 at the moment.

I just wonder why you are not keeping the update site up and force people to move forward with their Eclipse versions. On the other hand, I can still download as far as Eclipse Juno using the installer...

Hi Philippe

Both bugs are resolved in 4.11.

Did you maybe switch the Java version when switching to the new Eclipse versions? If so, try with Java 8.

Dani,

With 4.11, we have error messages "The package xxx is accessible from more than one module: <unnamed>, xxx" as described in bugs 536928 and 545621. It looks like we need to sort out our dependencies first and this will most likely take some time as some of the libraries we are using need to be updated first.

With 4.10, we have an error saying "The project was not built since its build path is incomplete. Cannot find the class file for java.util.ArrayList. Fix the build path then try building this project", we haven't opened a bug yet, still figuring out what is happening here.

Removing this update site forces us to move to an Eclipse with a now stricter compiler before we are ready to do so. Right now, we just want to be able to continue deploying a working Eclipse 4.9 via Oomph using our current setup.

What's the problem? Did you open a bug report or is it an issue on your side?

Hello Jay,

This is now a problem for us. We are still on Eclipse 2018-09 and we were using the https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.9-P-buildsupdate site to add Java 11 support.

We are not ready to move to a newer Eclipse version yet because of some trouble compiling our software with 2018-12 and 2019-03. 

Since Java 11 is a LTS, wouldn't it make sense to keep it around? Or can we get Java 11 support for 2018-09 from another source?

Thanks
Philippe

Hello all,

Being on the cusp of Java 12 release, we will be removing this outdated marketplace entry and the corresponding update sites this week.

Regards,
Jay
