Add Oomph setup compatibility with more than one Eclipse version

Open fvclaus opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Currently the groovy-eclipse repository targets one specific Eclipse version. If a different Eclipse version is selected in the Eclipse installer, the dependency resolution fails with a cryptic error (something about not being able to resolve artifical root). This has come up in a number of issues. For example #1184.

I don't think it is a good idea to limit the Oomph setup to one specific Eclipse Platform Version.

@donat I have also added the snapshot repository to support 2022-09. Without it setting up the project on 2022-09 fails with the same cryptic error message like all the other versions.
