Launching e(fx)clipse [message #1786249] Fri, 27 April 2018 15:36 Go to next message

Hi,
I am trying to launch a bare-bones e(fx)clipse application from Gradle, trying to duplicate the success described here for an older version of the e(fx)clipse platform:
https://github.com/mcmil/wuff-efxclipse-samples
but I get the following error:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter

Does e(fx)clipse use that class to launch the application? If not, what is the launching mechanism used?
I think if I can get this working the implications could be huge for end users: easier testing, painless configuration, conventions could be easier to apply, cross-ide support, *much* faster builds, and so on...
Thanks!

Our approach for cross-ide dev is maven - take a look how we start the framework - https://github.com/BestSolution-at/maven-osgi-plugin/tree/master/maven-osgi-exec-plugin/src/main/java/at/bestsolution/maven/osgi/exec

And no we don't use the class you show but org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Mai - see eg how we launch in Eclipse - https://github.com/eclipse/efxclipse-eclipse/blob/master/bundles/tooling/org.eclipse.fx.ide.mvnosgi.launching/src/org/eclipse/fx/ide/mvnosgi/launching/MVNOSGiApplicationLaunchConfiguration.java

Thanks for the information Tom, I will check it out. Is there currently any limitations when using Maven? I remember you mentioned you used it for a recent project...

Not that I know of (beside running junit tests in osgi mode) and once we release a new version of our maven-plugin things get even more streamlined .

@Tom
I downloaded and installed the maven-plugin and then the sample e4 maven application. When I opened in Eclipse, the pom.xml file under sample.mvn.app shows an error (underlined in <parent>):

The current state in the repository depends on the snapshot-version maven-plugin. You need to clone that repository and install the nightly version using "mvn install" and IMHO it looks like your .m2/repo is broken. You should maybe remove it so that they are downloaded once more

Tom,
Thanks for the reply.
I tried your suggestions but to no avail. I deleted the maven local repository altogether and downloaded and installed the maven plugin:
git clone https://github.com/BestSolution-at/maven-osgi-plugin.git
mvn clean install

Now, I switch to the sample procject and execute:
mvn clean verify

Maven has no problem:

Eclipse still shows the error in that pom.xml file.
Is Eclipse being cranky or am I doing anything wrong?
Thanks

Just a quick update. After the latest update on the nightly tooling (that happened actually a few minutes ago for me), the error in the pom.xml is gone.
Now the sample app at least tries to lunch. I updated the efxclipse.version property to 3.3.0 to use with Java 9 and I got the @PreDestroy annotation could not be found error. I am leaving for a short trip tomorrow and I will try to fix the problem with the versioned javax.annotation package. I will report back if I find a problem.
Thanks again!

you need to update the pom-dependencies to include the javax.annotation bundle but I fear that we have not yet published that one to our maven-repository. I give you a heads up once that's done.

Thank you Tom. I'll wait for your confirmation to keep working on this...

Hi Tom,
Do you have an estimate on when this might happen?
Is it in your plans to automatically publish to the maven repository as part of releasing the new versions?
Thank you!
Marcelo.

We released everything at the same moment. We also updated the same project on github IIRC

Thanks for you answer Tom.
Do I still need to wait for you to publish the javax.annotation bundle to your maven repository or can I get it from somewhere else. If so, which version should I use exactly?

Thank you!

My wild guess is that the problem is that this got cached in your m2-directory. If you wipe that and start from an empty one it will work
