VE 1.4 and Eclipse 3.6 [message #618403]

Sat, 26 June 2010 16:23

Eclipse User

Hi!

I have some problems installing VE 1.4 on a fresh Eclipse 3.6 IDE for Java EE Developers installation, because i get some dependency errors (see below). There are some infos in different threads and in this bugreport:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=301766

for VE 1.4 and Eclipse 3.5. I have tried to installed only the VE SDK but still get the dependency error. Are there any chances to install VE 1.4 on Eclipse 3.6 or do we need a new VE version?

Thanks in advance for a reply.
Chris

Troubles installing VE 1.4 ( Visual Editor ) on Eclipse 3.6 Helios

I've used this update site:
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ve/updates/1.4/

and I tried to install Visual Editor on different Eclipse distros:
- Eclipse RCP and RAP
- Eclipse Modeling (with incubating components)
- Eclipse Reporting.

In any case i get this error:

Same problem here. Trying to install VE 1.4 in Eclipse 3.6 Helios Build id: 20100617-1415 (a fresh install of Eclipse IDE for Java Developers, not EE version).

Like others, I have followed the steps outlined in the VE Wiki to the letter, but have the same problem.

I have had similar problems with 3.5 Galileo. I was advised at the time to just install VE SDK and none of the other options, but that never worked for me either.

As mentioned in other posts / forums, there seems to be a dependency around Java EMF. What conflict actually exists? Did
EMF break backwards compatibility? Why does it seem that a specific EMF version is required rather than a more generic >= N ?

Hi,

i just downloaded the ve plug-in. copied it to my plugins-folder and the modified the MANIFEST.MF of each single plug-in, removing the version information of the required bundles.

Works fine for me now :)

greetings,
Ben

Hi kit,

jar files are in fact just normal .zip files.
I am using Total Commander for example with a plug-in that handles .jar files as zip files. So i open it, edit the MANIFEST.MF in it and pack it back in.

It's that simple :)

greetz,
Ben

On this page

http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?projectid=t ools.ve

i see VE 1.5 was released on 06/28/2010.

Under "Release Deliverables" i see "..Project runtime binary features on eclipse.org update site (install via Eclipse update manager)..."

I think this is not true, because there is NO url with new VE 1.5.

So where can i download released VE 1.5??

Hi!

Thanks for Ben, I was able to install VE1.4 on Helios.
And it seems to be working fine for me too.

If there is a person who want to try the plugins that I modified, please look at http://sourceforge.jp/projects/tmdmaker/wiki/VisualEditor1.4 .0ForHelios

By the way,
".jar.pack.gz" can extract $JAVA_HOME/bin/unpack200 .

Thank you for your time.

hi,

winxp is o.k.,

but there are problems on linux (sidux,debian 64 bit):
with openjdk, the controls are missplaced
with sun jdk, there is a runtime-error opening forms

but this problems are the same on eclipse 3.5.x since a few month ago

Hi,

The environment i modified VE1.4 is winxp.

For other platform, you might have to modified VE1.4 for yourself, following procedures. (written in japanese is http://d.hatena.ne.jp/nakaG/20100819#1282225964)

1. Install VE1.4 to eclipse galileo from updatesite.
2. Take VE1.4's features and plugins out of the installation features and plugins folder.
3. Extract plugin jar files.
4. Remove '; bundle-version = "[3.8.1.1, 4.1.0)"' from com.ibm.icu written in Require-Bundle of MANIFEST.MF.
5. Remove eclipse.inf, ECLIPSEF.RSA, ECLIPSEF.SF from META-INF folder.
6. Compress it again. (You can use jar command or zip archiver.)
7. Drop it on dropins folder.

You will have to modify the following files.

org.eclipse.jem.util_2.0.200.R3_1_maintenance.jar
org.eclipse.ve.cde_1.4.0.v20090826-1446.jar
org.eclipse.ve.java.core_1.4.0.v20090826-1446.jar
org.eclipse.ve.jfc_1.4.0.v20090826-1446.jar
org.eclipse.ve.propertysheet_1.4.0.v20090826-1446.jar
org.eclipse.ve.swt_1.4.0.v20090826-1446.jar

If you fail to install VE1.4 to galileo, i have no idea...

Thanks for reading my poor English.

Hello.

If VE1.4 installed onto galileo from updatesite didn't work,
it may not work well even if you modify VE1.4 by yourself only the same way that I did.

It seems that it is a problem of VE1.4.
Then, I think that you should try VE1.4 on this page,
if you have not done yet.
It might have to be modified by yourself the same way I did.

Thanks for reading my poor English.
