Re: DO I need a Java upgrade? (Answer yes but ... )

I am using a Mac Pete.

I just went back to the CE area at Cafe and it says you _have_ to have 1.6 - not 1.5 - which I'm sure is what the pre-req said, and what you are using.

Anyway - the Mac has 1.6 - you just have to change the preferences to make it the first in the selection list. I made that change and it now works a little bit better - but the editor tabs still don't show - there's just a big white "blob" at the top. Double-click the .eglbld file and the tabs all appear - but click on the EGL editor tab and the white blob is back.

I also updated Eclipse with all of the latest available fixes - but no difference.

I have finally managed to wrangle my IBM id. into submission - but of course now I'm 6 hours in and no more "play time" left. I'll post on the CE forum and see if they can help.

Are you running Windows or Linux?

I am pretty sure I am running Java 5 on my Linux partition, I'll check
to see what is running on the W7 side.

Well - I don't have an answer to my question but I do know I am
running Java 1.5.

I guess I'll check if there are any Eclipse fixes etc. I am missing.

Installed a brand new instance of Eclipse and then installed the CE
plug-ins.

No errors reported by nothing quite works the way it should.

For example after opening a new EGL project etc. the editor does not
open. If I open one of the .egldd files then the editor tabs appear
- including the one for the dialog I am building. I can then select
it and drag components on to it for a while until it disappears
again. Similarly the properties window doesn't appear unless I ask
for it. Not sure if this will get through but this is a screen shot
of the upper part of the display - as you can see no editor tabs.

I was going to ask for help on the EGL CE forum but there's a
problem with their pages today that it won't accept either of my IBM
Ids - so even though I'm logged on the iBM site I'm a guest again as
soon as I get to the Cafe. ONly IBM could make it this hard to use
a support forum!
