Today we have published Buildship 2.2.2. This release contains the following changes:
Buildship 2.2.2 can be installed from the Eclipse Marketplace or by using the usual update sites.
Hi Donat!
I suppose stable update site for Photon is:
http://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e48/releases/2.x
(it’s not listed on the page you linked).
But what is that for 2018-09?
http://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e49/releases/2.x
does not work.
I updated to Buildship 2.2.2 plugin on my Eclipse 2018-09 IDE (v4.9.0 , 20180917-1800 ) and I noticed that code completion/hints are not working when I am editing build.gradle files with the “Gradle Build Script Editor”.
E.g in dependencies { ... } section, I typed “impl” Ctrl+space and it does not give suggestion for “implementation”. I recall this working in 2.1.x. Any idea why it is no longer working?
Check for Updates, show there is BuildShip 2.2.2 available, but the update fails.

You are right, http://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e48/milestones/2.x was not listed in the docs. I’ve fixed it.
2.2.2 from the e48 update sites works with 2018-09. I’ll adjust our infrastructure to produce e49 update sites shortly.
At the moment Buildship does not support code completion, only syntax highlighting.
This is a known issue, that most probably comes from the Eclipse platform. Please check https://github.com/eclipse/buildship/issues/488 for the workaround.
Oh, when is code completion when editing build.gradle planned? Is there an issue # for that?
FYI: according to the Announcing Buildship 2.0 blog back on Jan 11, 2017
…
Now, you can make changes to both projects with the benefit of complete IDE support: error markers, code completion, refactoring and more.

Hi Donat,
still no official Update Site for e49?
There is a 2018-09 update site for Buildship 3.0 now: http://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e49/snapshots/3.x/
FYI we are not planning to release more 2.x versions so now new update sites will be introduced.
So is 2.2.2 officially not supporting 2018-09? Because the page at https://github.com/eclipse/buildship/blob/master/docs/user/Installation.md#installing-from-eclipseorg-update-site still offers no option to install the latest 2.2.2 over 2018-09.
The official 2018-09 update site still contains 2.2.1.
Above you said we can use Photon update site to install 2.2.2 on 2018-09, but if so, I think you should also notify it on that page.
2.2.2 does support 2018-09. If it didn’t we would publish another service release.
The installation page needs some care anyway, especially considering that Eclipse just changed to a rolling release. I’ll look into this soon.
