Problems with the RDS plugin and myEclipse

March 21, 2006 · 7 Comments

If you have just got your clammy hands on the RDS plugin and installed it onto your Eclipse then got an error when you opened up a Quiery View, click on the details and if you see something like

"at org.springframework.ide.eclipse.beans.ui....."

it means you have myEclipse installed and it is clashing with the RDS plugin.  So you can disable (just momentarily I am sure) the myEclipse plugin by going to

Help -> Software Update -> Manage Configuration

There look for the myeclipse plugin and select it and click the disable link on the details.

Hope that helps

    Is it only the query builder that is affected? Or is it the entire scope of the plugin? I just want to be able to retrieve/push pages.. ?

    How do you get the plug-in to install if you already have the stable release of CFEclipse? It doesn't show as an option in the Update Manager and it doesn't seem like anyone is giving a link directly to the plug-in. Do I need to uninstall the entire package and then re-install?

    the RDS plugin isnt part of the CFEclipse stuff... its actually an adobe plugin. if that is what you mean?

    you have to head over to labs.macromedia.com to get it and you unpack and put it into your plugins directory.

    Hope that helps (and go go cfwheels!!!)

    Heh, thanks! Development is coming along nicely. Even working on the first killer app! ;)

    Found some very helpful screenshots here: http://www.talkingtree.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/3/21/Install-RDS-Plugin

    I finally found a way to revert back to MyEclipse - just go into Manage Configurations, and click on Revert Back to Previous. You'll see a list of a list of configurations by date; select the last working configuration where MyEclipse was fully enabled and select that. Of course, that may mean reinstalling plugins that you installed after that date you reverted back to.

    Hi Mark,

    Great product CFEclipse. I'm having a problem understanding how i can utilise the RDS Configuration to upload files from a CFEclipse project?

    I have RDS Fileview and RDS Dataview setup and working. But how do I relate a CFEclipse project to a particular RDS server?

    cheers,

    Bill

    Bill, I think the short answer at the moment is that you cant :(

    Its basically a way for you to edit files already there, rather than a synching process.

    I am seeing what I can do in that area but I don't know if RDS even supports that? (anyone?)
