    JBossTools and Eclipse 3.3.0 , does it work at all ?

      Hi!

      I am trying to set up JBoss Tools (2.0.0beta3) with Eclipse SDK 3.3.0 the entire day with no success. I get exceptions/errors and the functionality I want is missing.

      I used Eclipse 3.1.2 with JBossIDE before.

      I want :
      - "Deployment" item in the context menu of EAR files (just simple file copy)
      - "JBoss Remote" in the debug configuration type

      What components do I need ?
      I installed everything (version 2.0.0.beta3) from http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development , but no success :-(

          what exceptions/errors ?

          are you just JDK 5 ? if not then eclipse 3.3/WTP won't work.

          • 2. Re: JBossTools and Eclipse 3.3.0 , does it work at all ?

            I have jdk1.5.0_09.

            There are a lot of errors. See below.

            Are two functions I mentiond supported at all in JBossTools ?

            For example when click in Preferences JBoss Tools / JBoss Servers / View I get a dialog "Could Not Accept Changes" "The currently displayed page contains invalid values."

            The log entry is :

              yes they should be. They might though have changed names.

              run eclipse with -clean -debug and let us know what the startup errors are.

              • 4. Re: JBossTools and Eclipse 3.3.0 , does it work at all ?

                OK, I put the log here http://pastebin.ca/666767

                  so the log reveals you do not have the full wtp installed (datatools are missing) and that you for some reason are triggering NPE's in archive implementation ;(

                  Please report it in jira and attach the log there.

                  thanks

                  • 6. Re: JBossTools and Eclipse 3.3.0 , does it work at all ?

                    OK, I installed Eclipse freshly (unzipped eclipse-SDK-3.3-win32.zip , md5sum c7f5df655e5bd22190f31168b4f37c64), went straight to the update/install , added http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development as new remote site, checked it and also the two other sites ("Europa Discovery Site" and "The Eclipse Project Updates") and clicked Finish.

                    The in the search results dialog I checked "JBossTools 2.0.0.beta3".
                    Immediatelly the error message "JBossTools (2.0.0.beta3) requires feature "org.eclipse.emf". popped up. I clicked on the "Select Required" button, but nothing happened. I selected the "JBossTools 2.0.0.beta3" item and clicked "Select Required" again, but nothing happened either.

                    Shouldn't this automatically select all dependencies for install ?

                    I manually checked some EMF related items, but the error was still there. As some of the items I checked also had unresolved dependencies, I clicked "Select Required" again, and not it resolved all problems. I Unchecked all except "JBossTools 2.0.0.beta3" and tried to figure out the minimum set of features required. To make it short, after I while it happened, that I had ONLY had "JBossTools 2.0.0.beta3" selected, clicked "Select Required" and now it worked and selected only 6 other features.
                    But not datatools.

                    I install them.

                    No errors, but I have no Deployment or Debug item.

                    I then install "JBossIDE JBossAS Adapter Feature". OK now I have additional items in the Preferences. JBoss Tools / JBoss Servers / View. Which causes an exception.
                    I then installed all datatools features, but it is the same. The error is same as described in the third post (posted at Wed Aug 22, 2007 08:40 AM)

                    Summary :
                    - problems with dependency resolving. Eclipse or JBossTools packaging bug ?
                    - features description URL should be changed to something meaningful from http://www.jboss.com/products/jbosside which just says "site moved"

                      Ok - please report this in jira.

                      Then go download the eclipse wtp all in one download and then go to our updatesite.
