I have made some progress, but it is still not working.
I can create a new erxapplication from the 3.0 archetype and it runs from
eclipse.
It looks as if I did have the wrong .project, .classpath and
build.properties files so I have updated those. Maven is now building
modules in the right order and all frameworks appear to be built correctly.
They install into my local repository, and then my main application gets
built without errors.
That still didn't fix the issues - from eclipse - I get class definition
errors - from the command-line, I get that weird zip error.
So I gave up and created a single erxapplication using the maven archetype
and copied everything in from my old application and all its dependent
frameworks. Messy, but it compiled without problems and... runs from
eclipse! So that's great.
But I still get the odd zip file error - investigating this I note eclipse
is building and running using java8 whereas my command-line has been java
11 for a long time now! Could it a java 11 issue? Do others build using
maven using java 11 and WO/Project Wonder?
