I updated various README files to reflect the new Eclipse and Java versions, and bring them up to date otherwise as necessary. |

The Xpect tests run fine in the Maven build. However, if I try to run them as Junit tests from the Eclipse IDE, I get the exception |
Xpect tests are run as plain Java JUnit tests (without Eclipse/OSGi runtimes) that do not always correctly collect transitive dependencies. This resulted in the test executions failing because of the missing classgraph dependency that needed to be added.

I have fixed the launching issues by adding a specific dependency that is only used inside Eclipse. The root cause of the issue is that those tests are run as JUnit tests over Eclipse plugin projects, which behave differently regarding transitive dependencies. By explicitly specifying the problematic dependencies, these issues can be fixed. |
Thanks, it works now. Why wasn't this a problem before? |
