Our product (consisting of various plugins and features) is built on Eclipse, using Maven and Tycho, and we wish to support it on all Eclipse versions from Luna (V4.4) to 2019/12 (V4.14) inclusive. We will want to support it on newer versions when they become available. Until recent versions we had no problems but now we've hit an issue regarding the plugin 'org.eclipse.equinox.ds'. I have been attempting to build both Neon (V4.6) and 2019/12 (V4.14) and, whilst I can build each separately by changing the configuration in our .product file, I have been unable to discover a means to build both using the same file. Below is a summary of the errors I'm seeing (some names have been changed to protect the innocent):

************************************

BUILDING NEON

Building with config:
<configurations>
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.core.runtime" autoStart="true" startLevel="0" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.common" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.ds" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.event" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator" autoStart="true" startLevel="1" />
</configurations>


Builds Neon OK but 4.14 build fails with:

Building Productised Foo IDE (E4_1464).

There were errors. See log file: /home/jdoe/checkouts/foo-eclipse/workspace/.metadata/.log

The entries in
/home/jdoe/checkouts/foo-eclipse/workspace/.metadata/.log
merely repeat the error shown above

************************************

BUILDING 4.14

Building with config:

<configurations>
  <plugin id="org.apache.felix.scr" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.core.runtime" autoStart="true" startLevel="0" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.common" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.event" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
  <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator" autoStart="true" startLevel="1" />
</configurations>


Builds 4.14 OK but Neon fails with:

Building Productised Foo IDE (Neon64).

Gtk-Message: 10:15:47.869: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

The log file contains:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.4.0:exec (Install Platform Feature (Neon64)) on project foo.product: Command execution failed.: Process exited with an error: 13 (Exit value: 13) -> [Help 1]

    at org.apache.commons.exec.DefaultExecutor.executeInternal (DefaultExecutor.java:404)

However, if I add
<plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.ds" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" />
to the above config, it will build Neon but not 4.14.

************************************

I'm using Java 1.8 (the Oracle JDK) on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04, 64-bit) and building using Maven (V3.6.0) with the Tycho plugin (version 1.7.0).

My ideal solution would be a single configuration that would build all my required Eclipse versions. Is this even possible? If so, how?

I'd be very grateful for any help/advice. Please ask if you need more information.

I don't think there's any way to avoid this, i.e., be able to build against two different Eclipse versions with the one configuration. I've had to change this in the Eclipse Installer product too...
