I unfortunately installed just the update on top of my working 2023-12, figured I’d then install the latest WindowBuilder after the dust settled (which it never did
😊). I wound up reinstalling 2023-12, and won’t have time to do archeology (scatology?) on the dead installation, but it seems from the change
you found and my experience indicates that the upgrade was missing some .class upgrades, so have stale references to
org/eclipse/jface/text/rules/FastPartitioner.
Thanks for getting back to me, I hope the info I could provide is useful.

I just downloaded a fresh Eclipse 2023-12 SDK and installed WindowBuilder 1.15.0, but I wasn't able to reproduce this error.
While looking at the Eclipse UI repository, I noticed that the class you mentioned was moved from org.eclipse.jface.text to org.eclipse.text soon after the 2023-12 release:
https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.ui/commit/12511650deb08743f057d11f2b319ee303c04d54
It would be interesting to see which versions are installed in your IDE. If one is from the 2023-12 and the other is somehow from the 2024-03 release, then that would certainly explain this weird error.

Patrick

I was on the same version of Eclipse 20230-12 but rather than just update WindowBuilder I used the Help - Check for Updates option which upgraded both Eclipse and WindowBuilder.
It warned me that the workspace was to be upgraded which is normal for a newer version of Eclipse - but I have not seen any errors myself.
Do you have anything other than WindowBuilder installed in your Eclipse - maybe something which is not currently supported with Eclipse 2024 ?

Patrick,
Don't know whether this has been reported, but installing the 2024-03 corrupted my workspace, getting a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/jface/text/rules/FastPartitioner, totally reproducable. Am on 2023-12, Windows 11.

Subject: [wb-dev] WindowBuilder 1.15.0 Release
Hey everyone,
I'm happy to announce that WindowBuilder 1.15.0 was released without hickups as part of the 2024-03 release and can be consumed from the following repositories:
https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2024-03
https://download.eclipse.org/windowbuilder/updates/release/1.15.0
Highlight of this release is the support for jakarta annotations in the
E4 views, as well as lambda expressions for event listeners.
Furthermore, this is also the first release without dependency to
Digester3 and Guava. Former hasn't been updated in well over a decade and also pulls in nasty transitive dependencies such as Commons-Logging, Commons-Lang and Commons-Collections. Parsing of the wbp component files is instead done via JAXB. Latter has been
replaced by Commons-Collections4, given that both libraries provide effectively the same functionality.
Sadly, this is also end of the XWT support. Partially due to increasing incompatibilities with the latest Eclipse releases (like a dependency to javax), as well as a general lack of activity on their repository.
Regards,
Patrick
