opensuse 11.2 - a HEAP of trouble with eclipse IDE

[a_goransson]

I’m using the yast repository version (3.4 ganymede) and opensuse 11.2

* Buttons doesn't work properly (supposedly fixed with "export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true"... I can't confirm this as functional yet)

* Can't install cdt (or any other addon)
   0. filenotfoundexception - "/usr/share/eclipse/p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core/cache/artifacts.xml"
   1. random null pointer errors
   2. /usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini - permission denied
      0. chmod on file and/or directory doesn't help
      1. "sudo eclipse" crashes

Anyone got eclipse (any version…) working in opensuse 11.2, I’d like some tips please.

Sorry about the poor error reporting, I just don’t know where to start…

Perhaps the problem is you’re using the OpenJDK instead of Sun Java?

Now I can’t even start eclipse, not sure what I did.

Well I tested installing eclipse from the 11.2 repository on almost fresh 11.2 x86_64 installation and it works fine, with the OpenJDK too.

Have you tried renaming your /home/username/.eclipse directory to something else temporarily, perhaps there are corrupted files there?

This is a completely fresh installation, which is why I’m puzzled. I’ll have a look at the .eclipse dir.

Installing eclipse is not the problem, it’s installing cdt that doesn’t work.

[a_goransson]

Removing /home/user/.eclipse causes this to happen when trying to connect to the cdt plugin site.

I’ve tried both the correct(5.x) version of cdt and the latest(6.x).

[a_goransson]

Trying to install version 4.x of cdt gets me a bit further, even starting to download the plugin (without errors, where the version 5(suoposedly correct) and 6 causes the IDE to warn me for version inconsistencies)

But it doesn’t finish gracefully.

An error occurred while installing the items
  Error saving manipulator.

I use eclipse on 11.2 and it works fine…I didn’t install from the repository, though. I just downloaded the tarball from eclipse.org and extracted it into /opt. I then did ‘sudo chmod a+w /opt/eclipse’ and started it up. Bam.

(I’m using CDT, so I downloaded the tarball that has CDT preinstalled).

[user]

I have problems, too.
Mine is that in the command boxes the button click with the mouse doesn’t work. I have to focus on the button and press enter or use the shortcut.
I see that at list one succeeded.
My question is: could be related to the desktop manager?
I’m using KDE 4.

I’ve seen the same problem in KDE 4.3.

I haven’t seen the problem in any other applications, but I don’t know if it’s a Java bug or an Eclipse bug.

[user]

I also have the same problems with eclipse button. Some dropdowns also don’t work. For example when trying to add an SVN url.

I have seen many posts about Ubuntu/eclipse having this same issue. however the suggusted fix doesn’t seem to work for me.

[user]

I have the same problem. Some buttons in wizards don’t repond to mouse click.

Here is a workaround
Eclipse 3.5.1 strange button behaviour on Linux at Reflections

I followed the workaround:

export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true

and the problem is gone.
