SADL 3.5.0 build 20220210

You can install this SADL update (com.ge.research.sadl.update-<version>.zip) in any recent Eclipse version using any recent Xtext version compatible with that Eclipse version, not only Eclipse 2020-12 / Xtext 2.24.0, following the steps in http://semanticapplicationdesignlanguage.github.io/sadl/InstallSadlIde.html. SADL has no self-update capability at this time (to update, you will have to install another SADL update in your Eclipse).

Alternatively, you can unpack and run one of the SADL-Eclipse products matching your platform (sadl-eclipse-<platform>-<version>.zip).

SADL-Eclipse has no self-update capability at this time (to update, you will have to unpack and run another SADL-Eclipse product).

Changes include:

• Bump dependencies to newer versions (Jena 4.4.0, Mwe2Launcher 2.12.1, SLF4J 1.7.36, Tycho 2.6.0, Xtext 2.25.0)
