Eclipse VE and 3.1 [message #97220] Mon, 11 July 2005 14:10 Go to next message

I have:
eclipse-SDK-3.1-win32.zip
emf-sdo-runtime-2.1.0.zip
GEF-runtime-3.1.zip
VE-runtime-I20050710.zip

I started eclipse with -clean and the create visual class is not
available. Under preferences it does not show a visual editor. I believe
I have downloaded the correct files. Is there something else I should do
besides just extracting the zip files? Do I need to register or import
something?


Thanks for any help

Hi,

I got the same problem (under XP), and here is how I got it work for me :
- first install Eclipse 3.1
- extract the GEF and VE files in the Eclipse directory
- launch Eclipse and go in "Software Updates/Find and Install"
- add a new site ("EMF / SDO / XSD Secondary Update Manager Site for Eclipse
3.x" - http://download.eclipse.org/tools/emf/updates/site-release.x ml)
- use it to install EMF 2.1.0

If I first install EMF 2.1.0 this way, I am unable to install the two other
plugins just by extracting files in the Eclipse directory. If someone has an
explanation for that, I would be glad to hear it...

My 2 cents,
Patrick

This has solved my installation errors.

Good news this worked. I can now do development using VE. If it was

developed. Back to Microsoft.

The problem is you are working with development drivers (especially of
VE). Development drivers have very particular requirements that keep
changing. If they aren't exactly meet then things won't work.

When we release the VE 1.1, then the update manager can be used and
things will work correctly.
