Gradle Task Headings Disappear after Update

[Devharajan-Rangarajan]

When I did the update for the STS in my existing workspace the Gradle task headings Disappear

Please Also note that this is not occurring in new Workspace. Only on existing workspace. Even on existing workspace, when I delete all my projects and re-import them in they work fine.

• Can you provide minimal steps to reproduce this issue?
• What exact versions of the Spring Tools are involved?
  • Old version before the upgrade
  • New version after the upgrade
• Did you use the version of Buildship that came with the Spring Tools or have you installed a different version?
• Are there any related errors in the Error Log (Window > Show View > Error Log)?

The above is the latest version. I upgraded it from the previous latest version.

I am using the default Buildship version with the Spring Tools.

To Reproduce:

1. Have a Gradle project open in the previous STS version.
2. Upgrade STS
3. The error is there to see.

I tried to reproduce this issue with these steps:

1. Install Spring Tools 4.26: https://cdn.spring.io/spring-tools/release/STS4/4.26.0.RELEASE/dist/e4.33/spring-tool-suite-4-4.26.0.RELEASE-e4.33.0-linux.gtk.x86_64.tar.gz
2. Create a new Gradle Project: File > New > Project... > Gradle > Gradle Project. All icons and labels are visible in the Gradle Tasks view:
   
3. Update to Spring Tools 4.27: Help > Check for Updates
4. After restarting Eclipse I have to refresh the tasks view. The icon and the label of the top level tree item are already visible:
   
5. After the refresh I can expand the tree and all icons and labels are shown as before.

Without being able to reproduce this error, it will be difficult to provide a fix.

This works fine with a new workspace. This only happens when I have an existing workspace and then upgrade the STS to a later version. Then when I click refresh in gradle tasks I am getting the above scenario.
