Hi,

I am attempting to try the UML Modeller in MyEclipse milestone 4.

I have only 1 JRE installed of J2SDK 1.4.2 under C:\j2sdk1.4.2_07. In Eclipse, window->preferences->java->installed JREs it shows this installed JRE as:

Name: 1.4.2
Location C:\j2sdk1.4.2_07
Type: Standard VM

This all looks good to me so far.

Then I created a normal regular ol’ Java Project leaving everything as default.

Then I go to File->New->Other->MyEclipse->UML->UML Repository

and up pops a modal window that states: Can not create new Model Repository.
Reason:
MyEclipse UML requires JRE for Windows version 1.4.2 or greater.

Are there any logs where I can see what version it thinks I’m running with? Any idea of a fix?

Thanks!
Olav

Olav,

You can check the version Eclipse is finding to start with by selecting Help > About Eclipse Platform > Configuration Details.

You can specify which JVM to use on the command line by changing the shortcut you use to start Eclipse to something like:
eclipse.exe -vm <path-to-jdk-1.4.2-install>\bin\javaw.exe

Once again, you guys never cease to amaze.. Best $30 I’ve spent this year!

Thanks again. You guys rock!

Any idea if a UML tutorial is going up anytime soon on myeclipse or Lailuna that shows code round-tripping?

Likely right after 4.0 goes GA, if we bring up the idea of having the developers write docs for them now, then we have to content with all the suicide threats… so we are just keeping quite about docs around them 😀

Not sure if you’re looking for a basic UML tutorial or one that covers the functionality in MyEclipse, but here’s one on UML…

Sorry for linking to a competitor 🙂 Good UML reference, tho!
