#14 org.eclipse.jface.util.Assert will be removed in 2020-09 release

[Thomas James Watson]

org.eclipse.jface.util.Assert has been marked for deletion for a while now. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=528191

The next release of Eclipse 2020-09 will be removing org.eclipse.jface.util.Assert. Instead org.eclipse.core.runtime.Assert should be used. If this is not addressed then the following exception will occur:
