Research direction
Start by reproducing the Maven “Update Projects” action and inspect changes to the checked-in .classpath and .project files, including the generatorxxx folders in xtend.core. Trace whether those changes leave projects uncompilable. Done means the project files remain consistent and the affected projects still compile after the update.
