Screenshot different from current Eclipse #1200

On section 1.3, the screenshot shows the "Add DS Annotations to classpath" option, but Eclipse’s newest version (2023-09) does not have it.

A note on that would be welcome. What was it used for? Why was it removed?

Hi,

IIRC the extra "fidding" with the classpath in PDE lead to issues with the Tycho build system for supporting the generation of OSGi DS service metadata, so it was removed and "replaced" by standard OSGi dependencies. I updated the screenshot in the exercise with the the latest version. Thanks for the report
