How to run generated EMF editor [message #429045]

Hi there,

I did several examples with EMF, designed the model and generated the
necessary source files and rightclicking the editor project -> "Run as" ->
"Eclipse Application" just worked fine.

Even when I created a new project with a different model, I did not have
to change any configuration to get it to run.

Now I seem to have changed something and when I start the editor like
that, the desired object is not listed in the "New"-dialog.

Do you run your applications using "Run as"?
Do you use "Run a product" or "Run an application" in Run Configurations?

Thanks in advance,
Peter

So far so good. :-)

That's because Eclipse runs with all the plugins in your workspace, so
it doesn't really matter which project you've clicked on...

Sometimes it helps to tell Eclipse to clear the configuration area when
it launches. You can control this in the run configuration.

Another thing to check is to use the run configuration wizards plugin
choices to verify that all the plugins are in a consistent state and
have all their dependencies satisfied.

And finally the error log will typically provide information about why a
given plugin hasn't been activated. I.e., maybe it required Java 6 and
you're only running with Java 5...

Glad to tell it works again.

I guess that clearing the workspace did the trick.

Thanks a lot!
