JRE Refresh on the Mac [message #334520] Fri, 13 February 2009 20:00 Go to next message

As part of trying to get my JOGL based plugins working on the Mac, I added
the necessary JOGL jars to my /Library/Java/Extensions folder. That maybe
should have worked but it didn't. I have now resolved a better, Eclipsoid
way of doing it (if interested, see Loading Native Libraries in this
newsgroup). Problem is, that on the Mac, Eclipse still thinks the jars are
still in /Library/Java/Extensions even though they aren't there (nor the
trash). In the Build path dialog, the JRE System library entry shows the
jars which are now gone and whines about them. I tried simply deleting the
library entirely and re-adding it but no soap. I even coincidentally
upgraded my JRE entirely (normal Mac update). Nothing.

Anyone know where Eclipse keeps this info and how I can force it to
recognize reality? :-)

TIA, Ric

The answer to the below is to switch to a completely different JVM that is
also installed (in my case to 64 bit Java). Exit Eclipse and restart. Then
switch back to the default Java. This apparently triggered Eclipse into
rescanning the Extensions folder.

Simply starting with -clean as parameter didn't work?
