Hi there

Does anyone faced a “java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException” while trying to save the MyEclipse-XDoclet properties of an EJB Module Project ?

See Eclipse’s error log below…

[Eclipse2.1.1 + MyEclipse2.7RC2]

Thanx

This is caused by a problem in the XML environment of the JDK used
to run Eclipse. Have you used the ‘endorsed’ dirs mechanism of the JDK?
Can you please post your full configuration?

[weetabix]

Scott,

Eclipse is currently configured to run with the JRE included in Sun JDK v1.3.1_08.
Actually, the suprising thing is that MyEclipse’s XDoclet configuration used to work with v2.6.4.
The “java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException” appeared right after an upgrade of MyEclipse to v2.7RC2 (in order to test Struts wizards).

[BTW, Struts supports looks great]

This is the only thing that have changed on my Java environment…

Any help is welcome 🙂

Frank,

Can you try running Eclipse with JDK 1.4.1/2 to see if that resolves the issue? All problems like
this that we’ve seen in the past have been due to errors in JDK 1.3.1’s XML libraries. The new
Struts stuff makes extensive use of XML / XSLT so it may be aggravating a bug that 2.6.4 did not.

BTW, Struts supports looks great

Thanks alot. The team has been working really hard on it. 🙂

In order to sort things out, i have tryed the following :
– new Eclipse installation (still running with the JRE included in Sun JDK v1.3.1_08)
– no additionnal plugins
– new MyEclipse2.7RC2 installation

Guess what ? It worked.
So, i came to conclusion that MyEclipse2.7RC2 is a bit un-compatible with some of the plugin I was using (In particular, EasyStruts & Lomboz).

You were upsetting the MyEclipse environment when it saw you had competing plugins installed 😉

[mdebruijn]

I’ve got the same problem. I’m running Eclipse 2.1.2 with MyEclipse 2.7RC2 with no additional plugins installed.
I’ve tried and JDK 1.3.1 and JDK 1.4.1_05 but with no success.
Output of eclipse log file:

Why is org.jboss included? I’m not using JBoss and did not configure something for JBoss?

[Riyad Kalla]

I believe this is because the xdoclet functionality comes from the jbosside plugin that has been integrated into MyEclipse. Can you explain what you are doing when this error occurs? Does this thread help?

[mdebruijn]

The InvocationTargetExecption occurs after press the ‘Apply’ button on the screen where you can change the MyEclipse-XDoclet properties in the project properties screen. I’ve added the Standard EJB config.

[mdebruijn]

The problem occurs because I was switching to an other JDK in the wrong way. I selected an other JDK in the Eclipse preferences dialog but of cause I had to change the JDK before starting Eclipse.

[Riyad Kalla]

So everything is working for you now?

[mymytemp]

i am having the same problem when i save the configuration. please help.

jdk 1.3.10
eclipse 2.1.2 and no other plugin

[support-michael]

Can you post a segment of your Eclipse log file relating to this problem?

[bmy78]

Hi! I’m having the same problem that’s being described in this thread. I’m running Eclipse 2.1.3 and MyEclipse 2.7.101. I right-click on my EJB project, click on “Properties”, go to “MyEclipse-XDoclet”, add “Standard EJB”, then under “ejbdoclet” I add “JBoss”, select a few properties, and when I hit Apply or Ok I get an InvocationTargetException.

Window->Preferences->Java->Installed JREs points to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04 and Window->Preferences->MyEclipse->JBoss 3->JDK also points to the same JDK.

I can’t seem to figure this one out. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks.

[Riyad Kalla]

bmy78,
Can you post the exact exception from your log file? The InvocationException problem was fixed in later builds (I believe the Beta 1 build), but I want to make sure that is the error you are getting instead of something else.
