Which final and productive MyEclipse version can I use with Eclipse 3.0?? I was working with Eclipse 3M7 and MyEclipse 2.7.0. Now I have upgraded to 3.0 final and of course need a productive version of MyEclipse to continue developing my web projects.
Thanks for your answer.
Tom
Tom,
There is no production version for 3.0 yet, but our 3.8Beta1 release does work with Eclipse 3.0 and is relatively bug free except for some class loading issues that will be corrected in Beta 2 related to XDoclet and Struts.Riyad,
Well my installation has a BIG problem (already posted in the support forum).
All menues related to MyEclipse start with a %. So my main Eclipse menu looks like:
File Edit %SourceMenu.label %Refactoring.menu.label Navigate Search Project MyEclipse Run Window Help
Don’t know what the problem is, but it is there since I installed the beta. Can you help??
Many thanks
Tom
PS: If it is technically possible, I could send you an screen shot.
Tom,
I’ve not seen the entire UI get ruined like this, but we are aware of the bad names in the debug menu and the debug preference screen, is this what you are talking about?You can send a screenshot to support@genuitec.com with a reference to this thread with detailed system info so we can help run this down. The devs might have already found/fixed this with Beta 2.
I just downloaded and installed the released version of Eclipse 3.0 (no M builds, but the released version).
I installed it and then tried to install myEclipse (version 3.8 Beta 1) and got the following error:
“Eclipse Version Error
The folder you specified as the Eclipse installation location folder contains the wrong version of Eclipse. This product only functions properly with Eclipse 3.0MQ+. Please select Bac to correctly specify the location of your existing Eclipse 2.1 installation or Exit to quit the installer.”I used to have Eclipse 3.0M9 with the 3.8B1 version of my eclipse on my c:\bin\eclipse directory and it worked fine; switched to 3.0 on e:\bin\eclipse. I don’t think the error is on the movement from c: to e:, but on the fact that you still don’t recognize this version of Eclipse? Based on your announcements there is no disclaimer that it doesn’t.
I am using JDK 1.4 on Windows XP
Please download and use the manual install. We have been unable to duplicate this problem internally which makes updating our Installer to detect it problomatic. 3.8Beta1 does infact work with Eclipse 3.0 final, our Installer just sometimes flakes out detecting it.
Out of curiosity are you using Eclipse SDK or JDT?
I installed the full Eclipse 3.0 SDK.
How do I do a manual install? MyEclipse is an exe, so I don’t know how I could dh that.The manual installation is a zip file that is the last entry in the 3.x download area. The instructions on how to perform the installation are inside the zip file in a nice HTML document. It’s really rather simple.

PS: If it is technically possible, I could send you an screen shot.Given the screenshots and logs you emailed us, I’ll have to conclude that your Eclipse installation has some serious problems that we’ve never seen before and I don’t think are related to MyEclipse. What I’d suggest is installing a fresh version of Eclipse 3.0 in another location then trying to run it with the default (empty) workspace. At this point, verify that the UI is in working order and that you can create a simple Java project. If there is a problem at this stage, you’ll need to download a new copy of the Eclipse 3.0 SDK. If all is working, shutdown Eclipse and install MyEclipse 3.8 Beta 1 with it. Restart Eclipse and you should be good to go.
I have a similar problem (see: http://myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-2774.html). After deinstalling MyEclipse the strings are all right again—which is not a big help 😉

Marcus,
Actually, your thread is a different issue related only to a few strings in the debugger. Tom’s is very widespread and affects most menus. For your issue, a quick fix was released here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-2771-sid-e0734983198e89b5e75452c115a7ee3a.html

thank you! that helped.
Scott,
First of all many thanks for your help and support.
I fear I made a lot of noise for nothing! Sorry for that! In your last answer you wrote that I should re-install the SDK. I did not install the platform-SDK at all (thought thats only needed for those extending Eclipse with Plug-ins etc).
I installed simply the Win32 platform, the Java tools and the Java Tools SDK plus MyEclipse.After re-installing everything my menus look entirely OK! What remains unclear for me is:
28.06.2004 11:43 24’959’976 eclipse-platform-3.0-win32.zip
28.06.2004 11:49 56’721’581 eclipse-platform-SDK-3.0-win32.zip
28.06.2004 11:59 89’295’333 eclipse-SDK-3.0-win32.zipDoes eclipse-SDK-3.0-win32.zip include everything from eclipse-platform-3.0-win32.zip and eclipse-platform-SDK-3.0-win32.zip?
Or simply what is contained in all these packages?I have now extracted all three but got lots of overwrite warnings. So I do not really understand what is in which package. It looks like they have a lot of common things. It makes a little bit of a difference whether you need to download 90 MB or 170 MB.
However I am happy that this problem is solved!
Tom

Your confusion is normal. Eclipse platform is simply that – the runtime platform without the JDT, debug, or PDE pieces. Not very useful for development. The platform SDK is the platform plus source and documentation, which still doesn’t help much. The Eclipse SDK is the ‘whole enchilada’ of platform, JDT, debug, PDE, doc, and source. To always know which version to get in the future, simply download the largest one. 🙂
Glad you’re up and running so I’ll close this one out.
