I recently installed MyEclipse 2014 after using previous versions for many years. Something in the configuration has caused the ‘Compile With’ drop down which appears in the creation of a new android project to be empty. So I can no longer create a new app. What is missing in the config that would cause this to happen? My JDK and SDK are both in the system path.
oldjavageek,
Thank you for trying MyEclipse 2014.
Can you please give us some more information?
1. Did you install Android Toolkit plugin in MyEclipse 2014 ?
2. In MyEclipse 2014, you do not need to install the plugin. You can create a new Android App from New > Other > Mobile Tools > HTML5 Mobile Application Project wizard. Select ‘Android’ for Application Configuration.
3. Please refer to the section : Building HTML5 Mobile Applications (Early Access) in our documentation to understand how the mobile tooling works in MyEclipse 2014 : http://www.myeclipseide.com/module-htmlpages-display-pid-7.html
4. If you are still seeing issues, please let us know if you have installed any plugins to MyEclipse 2014 and also attach the screenshots of the issue to help us get a visual.
Let us know how it works for you.
Phil,
The wizard you mentioned (New Android App) isn’t a MyEclipse wizard, I assume (from your email) that it is something contributed by the Android toolkit plugin. Given that, we cannot debug issues with this wizard in MyEclipse, you would need to contact the developer of that plugin.
A couple of notes though:
With MyEclipse 2014 we introduced the ability to build mobile applications using in-built MyEclipse functionality. This has been superseded by the 2015 release which adds the ability to do PhoneGap build, you might want to look at these features before deciding whether you still need this toolkit (I’m not aware of your exact use case). You can get 2015 CI from our download page here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/index.php?name=Recommend_Us&req=Download2015
Let us know if you need further assistance.
Thanks for your help. I finally got things working correctly. I had been evaluating Android Studio and several copies and versions of the SDK installed. When I resolved this it all worked. BTW: I am not very impressed with AS, although I must say I liked the simulator – much better than the emulator. Perhaps it’s because I’ve used MyEclipse for many years. Using API 19 consistently was the solution.
One more question. Why cannot I move the perspective icons from the top-right. I am used to having them on the left side of the edit window.
Thanks again.
