How do I develop with the latest release of BlangSDK?

Reference the latest version of BlangSDK. ie. Modify the build.gradle to:

dependencies {
  xtextLanguages "ca.ubc.stat.blang:ca.ubc.stat.blang:3.25.2"
  compile group: 'ca.ubc.stat', name: 'conifer', version: '2.0.4'
  compile group: 'ca.ubc.stat', name: 'blangSDK', version: '1.20.latest.version.number'
}

How do I run BlangIDE without having two instances of Eclipse? (For those who followed these provisional instructions)

1. After completing step number 6, with BlangIDE running in the background, in your parent Eclipse, open the Window -> View -> Debug.

2. Right click the first item starting with /usr/lib/jvm/java..., and click properties.

3. You may launch BlangIDE directly using the command line script shown here.

4. Optionally, you may create a launcher. In your terminal:

touch BlangIDE-Launcher
chmod +x BlangIDE-Launcher

Then edit the file to begin with

#!/bin/bash

followed by the command line script you have copied from step 3, and there you have it :)!
