Has VE been tested on amd64? [message #44053]

I tried VE I20040617 with the required version of GEF, EMF, and eclipse.
Only I am running Linux on the AMD64. So I was extremely happy to find an
Eclipse linux-amd64 build. But VE is buggy on my computer. At first I
just thought VE was not as good as it sounded but I downloaded it onto my
laptop running linux with P4 and it is working great.

So, I am guessing there is not much testing on the AMD64 for VE. Now is
there a way I can help test and summit results?

The problem I am having in VE is first of all, when creating new visual
class, I get an error saying creation of element failed. I can open an
existing class with the visual editor though. The other problem, which is
a large problem is the code generated by VE is wrong. This is an example:

private void initialize() this.setContentPane(getJButton());
{
this.setSize(449, 107);

}

If I am doing anything wrong please tell me. If it is from using
eclipse-linux-amd64 I would like to help identify problems for the
developers

Thanks for the great product here (works great on my laptop).

We've never tried anything on a 64 bit processor. But we are using
straight java. I wouldn't understand why our stuff fails but the rest of
Eclipse would work.

Can you attach the .log file. Maybe that will give a hint as to what is
wrong.

I haven't tried much else of Eclipse, I am new to Eclipse and really
wanted to try the VE. Other things may not work right, I dont know.

I have posted my log file and a java file generated by VE on my website
(the log file is long) at iox.homelinux.com - the first entry on the page
has the links to both the log and java file. The application I was
building is a simple window with a menubar, three empty menus, and three
buttons

Hey John,

Based on your log file it looks like the there's problems initializing
the Java template generators due to a problem with the zip functions in
your JRE:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.ve.java.core 2 0 Jun 25, 2004 13:51:25.232

I see you're running the Blackdown version of Java... which may not
provide all the functionality needed by Eclipse. Could you please try
this using Sun's JRE? They have a 1.5.0 Beta 2 JRE available for
linux-amd64. Download it here:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp

Please let us know the results with using this JRE.

Thanks,

Thank you

I will install java 1.5. I had found the other day that was out for linux
amd64 but figured I would take this one step at time to figure out what is
happening. I am using blackdown because for java 1.4 Sun doesnt have a
amd64 version for 1.4. Thanks for the help.

Java 1.5.0_beta2 has been installed for linux-amd64 and eclipse and VE are
working great. Just have 2 minutes of testing so far but not getting the
errors I was before. Can create new file from the visual class option and
the code generated correct, and most important no errors generated!

Thanks for the help Jeff,
