Which Eclipse version do you use? It should work with 2024-03.
It indeed looks like an old version. Only latest version of aCute on latest version of Eclipse IDE is happily supported, other outdated combination are not likely to trigger anyone's assistance.
Can you please try with https://download.eclipse.org/acute/snapshots/ ? aCute hasn't had any release for many years and there is no obvious reason why this would change soon. I'm going to update the marketplace entry to refer to snapshots.
Tried this with snapshot as suggested above:
on a fresh installation of Eclipse 2024-03
I can run acute by checking out the source code, remove the line
org.apache.commons.compress;bundle-version="1.6.0",
from org.eclipse.acute/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
and finally run the plugin.xml in Eclipse. This starts a new Eclipse window with code hightlighting for Csharp.
But this throws a lot of exceptions in the original Eclipse window ;-)
Seems I need to find a way to include the apache.commons.compress jar into the project somehow.
I've submitted https://github.com/eclipse/aCute/pull/205 to hopefully fix this. Unless build crash, I'll merge it and next snapshot should be better. However, let it be clear that aCute has received about 0 maintenance for a while, it's more or less a dead project. But the good news is that if you're willing to contribute, we'll make everything possible to provide helpful assistance and make you a committer on the project.
New build got published. Please try again.
Attempting to install this via the Eclipse Marketplace on my Arch box results in the following error:
Update: Attempting the same process after changing the work site to http://download.eclipse.org/acute/releases/latest also fails, though the error is less recognizable.
