IbmEclipseQandA

The "...classic compiler not available blabla JAVA_HOME..." message is gone, but now I get this:

BuildException?: D:\ExportContracts\build.xml:31: org.eclipse.jdt.core.JDTCompilerAdapter can't be found..

Line 31 of build.xml looks like this:

28 <javac srcdir="${src}" 29 destdir="${src}" 30 classpath="${junitjar}" 31 />

I'm using release 1.0 of Eclipse. --DafyddRees

Release 1.0 is your problem. The JDTCompiler adapter has moved packages recently. -- OliBye.

• Either: Search the eclipse plugins directories for a file containing JDTCompilerAdapter, and use that fully qualified name. (It will appear in a plugin.xml)
• Or: Upgrade! Since this wiki doesn't have a revision history this page only reflects the latest version of Eclipse. I really recommend upgrading, Release 1.0 is very old now, and many of the tips on this page have been updated to explain the new way of doing things.

Thanks! -- DafyddRees

• All the forums are on the http://www.eclipse.org site
• • you'll find newsgroups, mailing lists and an FAQ search all listed on the main page.

In particular: How do I get it to load/parse/whatever an existing Java project from a filesystem? How do I get it to run my Ant targets to filter/style/build/test/deploy my system? How do I actually set it up to work with CVS? How do I tell it which VM to use?

• Re: imports, make a new project then try the file import wizard.
• Re: ant, right click the build.xml and use the Run Ant... option
• Re: CVS
• • Add a repository browser perspective with Window->Open Perspective->CVS Repository Browser
  • • Add the repository you want to use
    • browse the project to find what you want to import
    • Use "Checkout As..." if it's not an existing eclipse java project.
    • Note that this is a new feature in FC2
• Re: JVM, Windows->Perferences->Java->Installed JRE's
• • Add any you have, set a eclipse wide default.

All help appreciated -- FrankCarver
