    Including VPE Editor in standard eclipse

    liechtir

      Hi guys

      Is it possible to just have the VPE editor installed into a standard eclipse WTP installation?
      I read that there is a updater site available (http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development) where you can install just the editor, but I failed to do so.

      Is there any information available?

      Thanks,
      Remo

            I was able to install the plugin, but I wasnt able to open a JSF page with the editor. I didnt find out how to start the editor...
            no exceptions at all.

              Did Open with... on the xhtml page provide you with an option for our editor ?

              try and start eclipse with:

              eclipse -clean -debug and check if the error log contains any info about plugins not being able to load or something.

                no the open with did not provide such an entry.

                I'll try again with -clean and -debug and let you know the outcome.

                  solved:
                  I had to download the RichFaces-VPE-win32-2.0.0.beta3.zip from Sourceforge and install the stuff manually. By installing using the remote site it didnt work...

                  Now I got some problems with paths to show pictures in my custom JSF components displayed in the VPE editor, but I think I can manage them...

                    other problem:
                    when opening the "web project" view I get a nullpointer. What could the problem be there?

                      If the updatesite does not work then please report that in jira (including giving us the logs created when you start eclipse with -clean -debug)

                      About the NPE then that looks like a bug; please report it with steps to reproduce (and remember to say you only installed richfaces-vpe*.jar)
