problem opening Application.e4xmi in e4 windows 64bit [message #522061]

I've installed 2 versions of e4 on my Vista 64 bit:
eclipse-e4-SDK-incubation-I20100318-2100-win32-x86_64
eclipse-e4-SDK-incubation-1.0M4-win32-x86_64

I've tried sample e4 projects and creating new e4 projects on both installations, but whenever I try to open the Application.e4xmi file using the e4 Workbench Designer it just opens with a blank white interface (doesn't look like the screenshots of other OSes with the gui layout stuff).

Is this a known issue or is there a newer plugin I need on 64 bit for it to behave like the screenshots from the mac and 32 bit versions I've seen?

Thanks,
Todd

Hi,

try the reflective EMF editor or a text editor, as described also here:

Best regards, Lars

Hi Lars,

Thanks for the feedback. I've tried both the Sample Reflective Ecore Model Editor and a text editor with no troubles. It's only the e4 Workbench Designer that's not working. I couldn't find a bug report or find any posts from anyone else experiencing this issue on Windows 64 bit, so I was curious whether it was just me or if there are others that can't use the Workbench Designer then I would report a bug on Bugzilla.

Thanks,
Todd

Best to just get a 32-bit build and a 32-bit JRE and see if that works out for you. That would narrow down some variables.
