Hi.

I have Eclipse 3.2 installed, and I was trying to add the TPTP plugin
based on the automatic update instructions at
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/installguide/Inst allGuide42.html.
I seem to have managed it, but it needed lots of jiggling as follows:

I added 'TPTP Update site' at http://eclipse.org/tptp/updates/site.xml
to the 'Update sites to visit' list, but when I selected the TPTP top
node in the 'Search Results' window I got the error:

Unable to retrieve remote reference
" http://eclipse.org/tptp/updates/features/org.eclipse.tptp.mo nitoring_4.2.0.v200606131519---OmSTOTOd6a3aR.jar".
[Server returned HTTP response code: "404 Not Found" for URL:
http://eclipse.org/tptp/updates/features/org.eclipse.tptp.mo nitoring_4.2.0.v200606131519---OmSTOTOd6a3aR.jar.]

at the top of the window. I unselected the '4.2.0 Features', and had
this error:

Deprecated plugins of Platform project (4.1.0) requires plug-in
"org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi".

and unselecting the deprecated plugins got me this:

TPTP ProbeKit (4.1.0) requires plug-in "org.eclipse.emf.edit".

So I looked around and found http://www.eclipse.org/emf/updates/ which
recommended this EMF update url:
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/emf/updates/site.xml

Adding this fixed the above error, but gave me this:

TPTP Analysis Engine (4.1.0) requires plug-in
"org.eclipse.hyades.logging.core".

and org.eclipse.hyades is apparently obsolete. I gather that it's
something to do with remote logging which I really don't care about, but
several parts of 'TPTP 4.1.0 Features' seem to think it's important.

While jiggling things around, I enabled the 'TPTP 4.1.0.1 Features'
which changed the error message to something about wst (which I can't
find an update site for), so I went in and disabled 4.1.0.1's BIRT
modules and anything else in there that complained. I can now get it to
a point where it thinks it's happy to install stuff, but I still need
the EMF chunk (which the documentation doesn't mention).

Who should I contact to get the documentation updated?

Thanks

Tim

As always, bugzilla is your friend. File a bugzilla... TPTP project,
Platform.documentation as the component.


Not sure how much you have working, but a few things should be noted:
Eclipse 3.2 works with TPTP 4.2 ... I wouldn't try that 4.1 TPTP with
Eclipse 3.2 as there will be problems. 4.1(.0.?) goes with Eclipse 3.1(.2).

If you have Eclipse 3.2, the *easiest* way to get TPTP is to use the
Help=>Software Install=>Find new features to install=>Callisto Discovery
Site. Then select the piece(s) of TPTP you want, Select Required, and
all should work fine.

Hmmmm, now that I think about it, I think *I* filed a bugzilla against
something similar in the early days following the Callisto release...
hmmmm, I filed it, then I decided it was probably best the way it was...
don't know if you want to Reopen <
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=149697 > or file a new one.

Hi Randy. Thanks - I thought to do that, but wanted to check I wasn't
missing anything obvious before I did.

The missing 4.2 file seems worth reporting regardless of the
documentation fix - I presume TPTP.web is right for that.

I can't work out how to re-open your bug, but I'll make mention of it in
the documentation bug I'll also open - at the least it seems the
document should say that 4.1 isn't appropriate, and it seems harmless to
mention the alternative along with the issues so the person installing
can choose - it might be they don't really know what's going on (like
me) and would find this Callista thing more appropriate.

Cheers,

Tim
