Eclipse - one or more cycles were detected

[plutext]

Description

I followed the instructions at https://github.com/apache/lucene/blob/main/help/IDEs.txt#L7 to set up Eclipse project files:

./gradlew eclipse

and then imported the project into Eclipse.

Following this, I have 77 errors:

• mostly "one or more cycles were detected" in the build path of projects
• 3 non-existing libraries, as to which see below
• various "The project cannot be built until build path errors are resolved" (resulting from the above?)

The container 'Project and External Dependencies' references non existing library '/home/jharrop/git/lucene/lucene/analysis.tests/build/libs/lucene-analysis.tests-10.0.0-SNAPSHOT-test.jar'

Regarding missing lucene-analysis-morfologik.tests-10.0.0-SNAPSHOT-test.jar, following ./gradlew assemble I have lucene-analysis-morfologik.tests-10.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar but not SNAPSHOT-test.jar.

I'm not sure how /lucene-analysis.tests-10.0.0-SNAPSHOT-test.jar gets to be on the build path, or how to remove it (the usual approach in the Eclipse IDE does not work).

The container 'Project and External Dependencies' references non existing library 'lucene/analysis.tests/build/libs/lucene-analysis.tests-10.0.0-SNAPSHOT-test.jar'

The container 'Project and External Dependencies' references non existing library 'lucene/core.tests/build/libs/lucene-core.tests-10.0.0-SNAPSHOT-test.jar'

How did you import the project into Eclipse? It should be "Import as an existing project" or something like this. When I run gradlew eclipse, the .classpath file doesn't mention those circular dependencies.

Yes, I imported as an existing project (Import > General > Existing Projects into Workspace) rather than Gradle > Existing Gradle Project.

Here is one set of projects affected (Eclipse - Problems - Description) :-

One or more cycles were detected in the build path of project 'analysis.tests'. The paths towards the cycle and cycle are: analysis.tests->{core, test-framework} analysis.tests->{core, test-framework, codecs} analysis.tests, core->{test-framework, codecs}

One or more cycles were detected in the build path of project 'codecs'. The paths towards the cycle and cycle are: ->{core, test-framework, codecs} ->{test-framework, codecs} ->{core, codecs}

One or more cycles were detected in the build path of project 'core'. The paths towards the cycle and cycle are: ->{core, test-framework} ->{core, test-framework, codecs} core->{test-framework, codecs} ->{core, codecs}

One or more cycles were detected in the build path of project 'test-framework'. The paths towards the cycle and cycle are: ->{core, test-framework} ->{core, test-framework, codecs} ->{test-framework, codecs}

There should be only one top-level project. Try git clean -xfd . (or a fresh checkout), then import again. Something is wrong.

I just tried and it imports and builds fine for me?
