For Eclipse 2022-09, Tycho Project Configurators can now be installed through https://github.com/tesla/m2eclipse-tycho/releases/download/latest/

OK, so, if you agree I think suggestion to commit back the .classpath is OK and solves the issue with eclipse.

hi , maintenance is not really a problem since that’s not something we change very often. The only issue is the occasional false modification status cause by rearrangement of elements within .classpath that actually did nothing.
Tycho configurator project last updated at 2018 so it seems there’s no active maintainer for the project.

So, let me check if I understand the situation:
Tycho project is advancing
Tycho configurator project is stagnated and cannot be installed in eclipse 2022-09
So, we cannot use 2022-09 for iDempiere because we need Tycho configurator
Now, the commit removed that dependency on Tycho configurator with 2.7.5, but that plugin was in charge of creating the .classpath, so now the project is not working in 2022-09 either when installed from scratch, we still need to install in an eclipse with tycho configurator
Solution is not reversing the commit because anyways we would not be able to use 2022-09
If all what I understood is correct, I think the suggestion from makes sense.
What is the impact of adding back the .classpath to all projects? Problem with maintenance?

, WDYT ? Shall we wait for a week or two to see whether Tycho Configurators will be updated (looks like no active maintainer) ?
Changes:
Upgrade Tycho to version 2.7.5
Disable tycho-ds-plugin that’s causing problem for some user (reported at Mattermost)
