Could someone test Eclipse for me ?

[linux guy]

I am having a very difficult time getting Eclipse to run.

Could someone do a 'yum install eclipse-cdt' and then do
Start->Development->Eclipse and report the result ?

Thanks

Could you give me a $uname -a and a java -version ?

Thanks

# uname -r
2.6.27.5-41.fc9.i686
# java -version
java version "1.6.0"
OpenJDK  Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b09)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0-b09, mixed mode)

is this it?

the qt 4.4 plugin is great...allows integrated access to the designer!!!

I have a 30 day free trial for Eclipse/PHP integrated with Firefox

Thanks !

Any idea why your Eclipse works and mine doesn't ?

java is 1.0.0_0  Using the default open source java on F10.

2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686  is the kernel

You don't seem to give much information as the source of your woes. 
Sometimes you can get more details if you try to run the application
from the command line.

Here is the error message that gets logged when I run Eclipse:

The main issue is Product org.fedoraproject.ide.platform.product could
not be found.

I have installed all the Eclipse apps via yum and I still get this
message.

I had some issues with things not being found when starting Eclipse. The
"cure" seems to be to run Eclipse as root once - this is something that's
happened for F10 (F9 didn't have this issue).

May not be the same issue as yours but might be worth a try.

Please don't do this.  This causes files to be created as root which
then can't be over-written by regular users which messes up the update
manager.

There is at least one known issue upstream with plugins being found
after yum installation.  In all cases I've encountered, running with
-clean will fix it.  As usual, please file bugs for issues you run into.

Thanks,

Andrew

Please tell me more.  Because I have accidentally run Eclipse as root.

How do I get back to a perfectly clean Eclipse install.   I've been
uninstalling Eclipse with yum, then deleting /usr/lib/eclipse and
~/.eclipse.   Am I missing anything ?

eclipse -clean ?

Perhaps /usr/share/eclipse.  But be careful not to delete files in
/usr/lib/eclipse, /usr/share/eclipse (or /usr/lib64/eclipse) that aren't
owned by a package that is built by the eclipse SRPM (ie. eclipse-*).

I don't have the bug # on hand, but it's an issue whereby things put
into the "dropins" folder don't get refreshed properly when they are
removed and then re-added (like what happens with an rpm upgrade).  I
haven't run into this myself for a while and I add and remove plugins
all the time.

Yes.

Try running with -clean.

save years of analysis and obfuscation common with Fedora

use yum to remove all eclipse stuff and download/install from eclipse

if you like Qt 4.4, get the plugin for Qt and use designer

I have Eclipse with Qt plugin, C++ and PHP and it runs great...I love it in spite of
some dismal wording/planning/organization of options!

Right now it is not allowing me to tell it where the oci8 libraries are.

uname -r
2.6.27.5-41.fc9.i686

I installed it from the site rather than using yum!
