Example doesn't work with Java 11

[cosminpolifronie]

Hello! Example does not build with Java 11 because of depedencies needing Java 17:
[ERROR] org.eclipse.core.jobs 3.15.0.v20230808-1403 requires Execution Environment that matches (&(osgi.ee=JavaSE)(version=17)) but the current resolution context uses [a.jre.javase 11.0.0]

see

maven-xtext-example/.github/workflows/build.yml

Line 12 in cb64ab3

- uses: actions/checkout@v3

That I saw, but looking in the changelog there is no mention about needing Java 17. Only mention is on version 2.29 about Java 17 working, but only Java 11 being required.

I am saying this as a beginner to Xtext, if I didn't find this example I would have thought Java 11 is perfectly fine.

Also, some help needed here, if you have the time: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77236560/porting-xtext-eclipse-project-to-maven

java 11 is fine. if you use old eclipses in target platforms (eclipse 2022-03)

Ah, I understand. Thank you!

p.s. if you use the new Xtext project wizard it should create valid combinations depending on what you select as java version, maven or gradle, select eclipse or not
