DownloadChecksumJob fails for Gradle snapshot versions fetched from versions API, causing projects to fall back to unmanaged/invisible project mode #4357

Description

@e-g-hategan

Description:

Extension version: redhat.java 1.53.0
OS: Linux (Ubuntu 24)
Java version: (openjdk version "11.0.30" 2026-01-20)
Gradle versions in projects: 6.4, 6.5, 6.8, 7.6.3, 8.3, 8.4 (none using 9.3.0)

Problem:
On every startup, DownloadChecksumJob attempts to validate a checksum for gradle-9.3.0-20251002004537+0000 — a snapshot version not used by any project in the workspace. The snapshot URL no longer exists on Gradle's distribution server, causing a FileNotFoundException. This causes Buildship to fail importing affected projects as Gradle projects, falling back to unmanaged/invisible project mode and outputting compiled classes to bin/ instead of build/.
Evidence:

No project in the workspace references 9.3.0
The version appears in workspaceStorage/.../org.eclipse.buildship.core/gradle/versions.json, suggesting Buildship fetches all versions from the Gradle versions API (including snapshots) and attempts checksum validation for all of them
Deleting the workspaceStorage folder is only a temporary fix as it regenerates on next startup

Expected behavior:
Checksum validation should only run for Gradle versions actually used by projects in the workspace, not all versions fetched from the remote API.

                DownloadChecksumJob fails for Gradle snapshot versions fetched from versions API, causing projects to fall back to unmanaged/invisible project mode #4357

                Description

                @e-g-hategan

                Description:

                Extension version: redhat.java 1.53.0
                OS: Linux (Ubuntu 24)
                Java version: (openjdk version "11.0.30" 2026-01-20)
                Gradle versions in projects: 6.4, 6.5, 6.8, 7.6.3, 8.3, 8.4 (none using 9.3.0)

                Problem:
                On every startup, DownloadChecksumJob attempts to validate a checksum for gradle-9.3.0-20251002004537+0000 — a snapshot version not used by any project in the workspace. The snapshot URL no longer exists on Gradle's distribution server, causing a FileNotFoundException. This causes Buildship to fail importing affected projects as Gradle projects, falling back to unmanaged/invisible project mode and outputting compiled classes to bin/ instead of build/.
                Evidence:

                No project in the workspace references 9.3.0
                The version appears in workspaceStorage/.../org.eclipse.buildship.core/gradle/versions.json, suggesting Buildship fetches all versions from the Gradle versions API (including snapshots) and attempts checksum validation for all of them
                Deleting the workspaceStorage folder is only a temporary fix as it regenerates on next startup

                Expected behavior:
                Checksum validation should only run for Gradle versions actually used by projects in the workspace, not all versions fetched from the remote API.
