Description Pierre-Charles David

2021-02-04 12:25:04 EST

We currently build against all Eclipse versions from Photon through 2020-12, and soon 2021-03, 2021-06, etc. We can not realistically test and support all of these.
For Sirius 6.5 we will drop support for all versions older than 2020-06, which is the platform used by Capella 5.0 (and maybe still for the upcoming 5.1).

It seems there are users still on 2019-12, so we will need to keep that. photon, 2019-06, 2019-09, and event 2020-03 can probably go however.

Actually, we will be even more "aggressive" than that, and remove everything before 2021-06 for Sirius 7.0.

We now only consider Eclipse 2021-06 and later.

Validated with 7.0.0.202201120736
I used an OD bundle and it was based on Eclipse 2021-06
