Hi there,
I am a Mac convert, and have been using MyEclipseIDE product on my Mac successfuly for some time now.
However, whenever a new release is out, I am allways quite disappointed that the UML design support, JSP GUI
editing are not supported on the Mac. This is apparently because of a Eclipse/Java bug on a Mac. HOWEVER,
this seems to have been fixed — from the Eclipse download site, I got the following info:
In order to use the SWT_AWT bridge, OS X jre version 1.5.0 Release 4
(or greater) must be used, and the additional “SWT Compatibility Libraries”
must be installed. These libraries can be downloaded from the Downloads
section of Apple Developer Connection (http://connect.apple.com). It’s free
to create an account at Apple Developer Connection to access the download
(180K). (Eclipse report: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=67384).
Now, I am running :
canary:~ aleksm$ java -fullversion
java full version “1.5.0_06-112”
canary:~ aleksm$
I have downloaded and installed the above mentioned fix, and still no UML, no GUI
tools etc…
My question is:
In view that this bug has been fixed on the Mac, and that there is the above mentioned
patch, when can we expect a full-feature MyEclipseIDE as it exists on the Windows
operating system?
Thank you, Alex.
