    I am running 4.0M3 on Eclipse 3.1.

    Each time I start Eclipse, MyEclipse prompts me to reenter my subscription details. This is incredibly annoying! No previous milestone has done this before. Is it a known problem or is it down to something else?

    Can anyone help?!

    I had the same problem when using the Software Updates Link inside Eclipse, but when I did a clean install (I deleted the ~/MyEclipse directory, and installed via EnterpriseWorkbenchInstaller_4.0M3_E3.1.bin), it seems to remember my subscription information fine.

    Right now it’s been reported enough to be a “known problem” that the development team is actively investigating. We’ll get it fixed ASAP.

    Andrew,

    We have found the cause of the license persistence problem and it will be addressed in the upcoming MyEclipse 4.0GA release. For M3 Linux and Mac users please use the following workaround procedure until that time.

    1. Shutdown MyEclipse
    2. Change to the directory (cd) referenced by the Java system property “user.home”. By default, /home/<username> on Linux and /Users/<username> on OSX.
    3. Create a sub-directory called user so the new dir path is /home/<username>/user
    4. Restart MyEclipse and enter in your subscription information.

    Your subscription details will be stored in this new /home/<username>/user directory. Please be aware that this workaround is M3 specific. Upon the MyEclipse 4.0GA release, you will be required to re-enter your subscription details on the 1st startup. We apologize for this inconvenience.

    I’m not sure if my existing eclipse licenses are being interpreted correctly. It says standard license. I thought all existing licenses were being automaticaly treated as Professional. Maybe it is working correctly and I just don’t know how to access the Uml features properly. There doesn’t appear to be a Users guide to the UML tools listed in the Help section. I can switch to the UML perspective. But all options in the UML Menu Item are greyed. out. I would like to reverse engineer some existing code to experiment with the UML tools.

    emcien,

    It will say standard, but you still have access to all the Professional features. To work with UML, use File > New > Other > MyEclipse >UML > UML Model Repository.
    Once you create and open your repository, all the UML features will be enabled. You can reverse engineer using Drag and Drop from the Package Explorer or use the wizard from the UML menu.

    Best,
    Brian.

    Ok I figured out what it was

    You can’t access the UML Menu unless you actually have a Diagram open and it has focus. If you have focus on the package explorer and select the repository file, or have any other object other than the diagram window selected it greys out the uml menu items.
