anyone else have issues with visual editor on OSX?

[jcg3]

I have the 2.0.1 version of the tools installed on eclipse 3.3, and just installed it on OSX. When I try to open an xhtml file, the visual editor gives me the following error:

The VPE editor can't be run because your system environment needs to change slightly.

The message links to an old wiki page about configuring libstdc++ on linux...
http://labs.jboss.com/wiki/JBosstoolsVisualEditorFAQ

Googling found me this link:
http://labs.jboss.com/tools/blog/visual_page_editor_updated_-_now_with_macosx_support/

So, in theory this should be working... can anyone else confirm or deny that this works for them so I know if it is an issue with my setup or with the tool? I figure someone else might be able to weigh in before I chase down trying to see if the libstdc++ library might possibly apply to OSX...

Thanks in advance,
Jason

This is a known issue with eclipse 3.3.1 and Leopard.

Known workarounds:

1) Don't use Leopard ;)

2) Use Eclipse 3.3.2 (but don't upgrade to WTP 2.0.2 since they introduced a regression bug in there that prevents proper deployment of Seam)

I'm already on Eclipse 3.3.2 when I get this behavior. Build id is M20080221-1800.

WTP shouldn't be an issue as I deploy using ant build files...

Any other versions or settings I should check?

Thanks,
Jason

then i don't know a solution...it should just work.

I re-downloaded the JBoss Tools plugins and... as described, it just worked.

There must have been something wonky about my install... thanks for helping me figure out that it must have been something local.
