Hi all,

we have just released 2.4.3. Among other things, it fixes several issues
around the Xcore integration and problems with platform resource vs.
platform plugin URIs.

Here's a brief overview with a link to the full details:

Congratulations, and thanks to everyone responsible!

What's the best way to upgrade?
I suspect that it's to uninstall <some set of features> and reinstall.
I know from experience that it's possible to upgrade Xtend/Xtext very badly.

I'm starting with the DSL package of June Kepler 4.3.
For that, the Uninstall button in "Eclipse Installation Details" is greyed out for all features underneath the master "Eclipse DSL Tools" (package id epp.package.dsl). So there may be a different answer for users of that package - maybe we should restart with a different package and install Xtend/Xtext fresh.

What do you mean?

If you mean to suggest using the Help/About Eclipse/Installation Details UI, then as I said, it doesn't work with the DSL package. Maybe for the same reason, Help/Check for Updates shows nothing. Or did you mean something else entirely?
