Java 15 support plugin for eclipse 2020-09 not available [message #1836186]

I know you need to have this plugin to support Java 15 in eclipse 2020-09, however, I doesn't seem to be available any longer.

When I try to install it via the marketplace, I am getting this error:

> No repository found at
> https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.17-P-builds/.

Is there a way to install it from other sources?

Java 15 support is included in eclipse 4.18(2020-12).
As part of cleaning old releases we removed 4.17-P-builds repo as it is not supported anymore.

Please upgrade to 2020-12 to continue work on java 15

I know, but I cannot upgrade to eclipse 2020-12 because I am facing some compiler errors which haven't been there with eclipse 2020-09.

The bug I am facing is #569498, and because of that, I cannot use 2020-12.

I guess I will have to spend time in trying to get that plugin from elsewhere.

Hi

If the 4.17-P build contained something important for 4.17 users, then surely it should still be available for at least two years and probably for as long as archive.eclipse.org exists? 4.17 does not die with 4.18. It may be ill-advised to use a bleeding edge 4.17 feature but for some users it may matter, and for researchers too what existed when may matter.

Hi

I didn't post any specific Bugzilla and the webmasters are having a well-earned partial Xmas break, so maybe it was just a network flakiness.

Based on the #569498, I thought it is not worth asking users to modify their code.

So I rebuilt 4.17-P-builds repo.

Thanks

As you know, Java 15 was released on September 15th 2020 but Eclipse 2020-09 supports compilation of Java version up to 14. To enable code compilation for Java version 15 in this version of Eclipse, you need to: Install a distribution of JDK 15 (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK).
