Re: [jdt-dev] 4.9-P-builds update site not available again

Dear all,

Okay, we figured it out. We have now copied the necessary patch feature into our own internal software site.

Thanks everybody for the help.

Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were looking for the 4.9 drops.

I believe the branch for the JDT 4.9 Java 11 work is this one:
https://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.core.git/?h=BETA_JAVA11

Do you know which P2018... version you are looking for? If you have a specific tag you should also be able to retrieve the source as everything is properly tagged.

It's a decision a project team does. It's uncommon to use archive.eclipse.org for beta artifacts, though. It's only intended for things that should be persisted forever - like releases. I believe no-one thought a beta patch feature would be critical to keep around.
