(Spring Boot): the newly introduced additional reconciling for Java source files which is used to show up additional validations and quick fixes can still cause increased memory and CPU consumption. In case you stumble upon issues in this area, please disable the reconciling via
Preferences -> Extensions -> Spring Boot Tools -> Open Rewrite(in VSCode) orPreferences -> Spring -> Open Rewrite(in Eclipse). A fix for this that significantly reduces CPU and memory consumption here is being worked on and is scheduled for the upcoming4.20.0release. -

- (Spring Boot): new and vastly improved content-assist for Spring Data repository query methods (thanks to contributions from @danthe1st)

application.properties) to not be copied into the target folder anymore. This works again and automatically copies your changedapplication.propertiesfile to the target folder, so that those changes are taken into account when running the project automatically again

- updated to Eclipse 2022-09 release (new and noteworthy)
- new distribution build for Linux on ARM included now (experimental) - downloads are here
- m2e 2.0.5 release included in distribution builds for Eclipse
- Due to the major update to m2e 2.0 that comes with the Eclipse 2022-09 release, several additional third-party m2e connector extensions that the Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse distribution had installed in the past are no longer compatible. This prevents the automatic update of installations of Spring Tools prior to 4.16.0 to the new release. There are two options how to mitigate this:
- start with a fresh install of Spring Tools 4.16.0 for Eclipse
- go to the
Preferences -> Installation Detailsand uninstall the following features via theUninstallbutton, then restart the IDE, do aCheck for Updates, and do the upgrade.Maven Integration for Eclipse JDT Annotation Processor Toolkitm2e connector for mavenarchiver pom propertiesm2e connector for build-helper-maven-plugin
- Eclipse 2022-09 comes with ANSI coloring for the console view built-in, so we don't need to third-party extension
Ansi Consoleanymore. If you upgrade an existing installation, please uninstall this extension prior or after upgrading Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse.

- (Eclipse): due to the introduction of Wild Web Developer components to the default distribution package, you might hit a wrong error message when working with Spring Integration XML config files in your projects. This is caused by the project-related XSD namespace solution mechanism not yet being ported to the new XML tooling of the Wild Web Developer package. Therefore the XML language server which is embedded in there creates a wrong error message in certain cases. While we are working on porting the project-related XSD namespace resolution mechanism to this new context, you can workaround this issue by disabling the XML language server in the preferences. The details of this are described here: https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/issues/447

Spring Tools for Eclipse based on earlier versions of Eclipse (like this one, which is based on Eclipse 2019-06) will continue to include the Quick Text Search from Pivotal.

- there is a bug in the m2e support in Eclipse (#547340) when using the maven-jar-plugin in version 3.1.2 in your project (which is the version that the latest Spring Boot release upgraded to). The Spring Tools 4.2.2 distributions for Eclipse contain a fixed version of the m2e components. Updates will get the fixed version automatically. An alternative workaround is to downgrade the maven-jar-plugin version to 3.1.1 in your pom file via:
<properties>
<maven-jar-plugin.version>3.1.1</maven-jar-plugin.version>
</properties>

Attention: We merged the two different extensions for Spring Boot (for Java code and for properties) into a single extension for the various platforms (Eclipse, VSCode, Atom). This might require that you manually uninstall the old extensions and install the new ones. Automatic updates don't work here.
