Hi,

I've downloaded the Eclipse Juno M7 today and have installed the WindowBuilder from this link.

I've opened the same workspace that I was working sucessfully with WindowBuilder in Juno M6.
But when I've opened one Composite I got this exception:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.wb.core 4 4
!MESSAGE Designer [1.3.0.r42x201204301201.201205081023]: Version 4.2 is not present in [3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8]

I'm attaching the generated report error.

regards,

Cristiano

Until the fix is available on the update site, you can make a fix yourself, like I did:

1. Install WB 4.2 plugins
2. Locate org.eclipse.wb.rcp_1.3.0.r42x201204301346.jar
3. Extract and open RcpDescriptionVersionsProviderFactory.class in a hex editor
4. You'll see the strings "3.2", "3.3" at Offset 0x47. Replace the "3.2" by "4.2".
5. Save the class file and re-create the JAR-File

For your convenience, I've attached my modified org.eclipse.wb.rcp_1.3.0.r42x201204301346.jar.
Thus, you can skip steps 2-5.

Have fun,
