Eclipse Photon with ANT and JRE6

The support for ANT and JRE6 with Eclipse Photon.

The plugin was created for:

Version: Photon Release (4.8.0)
Build id: 20180619-1200

Don't forget the -clean start (read the original article for more details)!

One more thing you should do:

Photon includes ANT > 1.10. This version requires Java 8. In order to use Java 6, you have to download ANT 1.9.x. Simply download ANT and set the ANT Home to your version, via

(Window >>) Preferences >> ANT >> Runtime >> Ant Home...

If you try to use the bundled ANT with JRE 6, it will fail with an Exception.

Download the plugin from here. It works for us - no warranty!
