Can't get VE to work at all [message #94285] Fri, 17 June 2005 02:12 Go to next message

I installed VE and Eclipse properly, my extracting the GEF, EMF, and VE
plugin archives to the eclipse folder, they show up correctly in the feature

Whenever i try to create a new visual class of any type i am shown an error
message :
"Creation of element failed. See error log for more details".

It does this for every single type of visual class.

What could be causing this?

Not sure, but the log file will help diagnose what is going wrong. It
is where exceptions and problems that occur inside the running Eclipse
IDE get written. It is located in the .metadata directory of your
workspace and called .log. You can also see it in Eclipse itself by
doing Window>Show View>Error Log.

Could you please get the .log file and post it to the newsgroup so we
can take a look at what is going on ?

You need to step up to the VE 1.1M2 plus the new prerequisites of EMF
and GEF. 3.1 is not supported by these older versions of code.

There are two other simultaneous errors but they all reference this main

Thanks for any help.

The update utility only gets released versions. Since 3.1 and VE 1.1 and
GEF, etc. are still in development and not released, the update manager
doesn't find them. You must use the downloads for development drivers.
And VE 1.0.x does not work with Eclipse 3.1. So you must use the downloads.

Peter,
The required versions of Eclipse, GEF and EMF are listed in the
Requirements section of every download page of a VE build. See the
1.1M2 download page for example:
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ve/downloads/drops/S-1.1M2 -200506101701/index.html

It should work ok with later builds of Eclipse, GEF and EMF, but for the
most part you should try to match the required versions.

Not sure, but the log file will help diagnose what is going wrong. It
is where exceptions and problems that occur inside the running Eclipse
IDE get written. It is located in the .metadata directory of your
workspace and called .log. You can also see it in Eclipse itself by
doing Window>Show View>Error Log.

Could you please get the .log file and post it to the newsgroup so we

I'm not sure what the driver ID is or how to find it but the version numbers
are :

Eclipse 3.1
EMF 2.0.1
VE 1.0.2.1
GEF 3.0.1

You need to step up to the VE 1.1M2 plus the new prerequisites of EMF
and GEF. 3.1 is not supported by these older versions of code.

Ok, after reinstalling everything and making sure i have all of the correct
versions It now lets me create the visual class but when it is initializing
the visual editor it gives me this error :

An internal error occurred during: "Create Remote VM for Visual Editor for
Java".
tried to access method
org.eclipse.pde.internal.core.WorkspaceModelManager.getWorks pacePluginModel(Lorg/eclipse/core/resources/IProject;)Lord/e clipse/pde/core/plugin/IPluginModelBase;
from class org.eclipse.jem.internal.proxy.core.ProxyPlugin

There are two other simultaneous errors but they all reference this main
problem.

Thanks for any help.

Did you step up to Eclipse 3.1RC2 and VE 1.1M2 and GEF 3.1RC1 and EMF
2.1 I20050609? This says you still have a mismatch of drivers.

I am using Eclipse 3.1 RC3 and i used the update utility in eclipse to
install everything, should i do it all manually instead? I figured that the
automatic installation would work best.

The update utility only gets released versions. Since 3.1 and VE 1.1 and
GEF, etc. are still in development and not released, the update manager
doesn't find them. You must use the downloads for development drivers.
And VE 1.0.x does not work with Eclipse 3.1. So you must use the downloads.

Hmm ok then could you please tell me which versions of GEF , EMF, and VE i
should use for Eclipse 3.1 RC3 so that it will all work properly. I will
just do a fresh install with these 3 plugins.

The installation instructions do not tell me this. Thanks for your help.

Peter,
The required versions of Eclipse, GEF and EMF are listed in the
Requirements section of every download page of a VE build. See the
1.1M2 download page for example:
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ve/downloads/drops/S-1.1M2 -200506101701/index.html

It should work ok with later builds of Eclipse, GEF and EMF, but for the
most part you should try to match the required versions.
