if im trying to add the J2EE libs to one existing java project im getting one error.

the steps are:
Properties/Java build Path/Libraries/Add Library/Myeclipse/
if im trying to select the J2EE1.3 or 1.4 libs im getting the errormessage:
"Error occured see errorlog for more details..."

where is the errorlog ?
what causing this error ?

eclipse:
Version: 3.2.2

MyEclipse Web Development Tooling
Version: 5.5.1
Build id: 20070521-5.5.1-GA

Hi Jozsi,
This is a known issue with MyEclipse 5.5.1. Im sorry you ran into it. This will be fixed in the MyEclipse 6.0 release.

ps - The error logs can be found <workspace>/.metadata/.log

I'm in the early days of porting an existing Eclipse project under MyEclipse, in an attempt to demonstrate the gain in ease of development and productivity that we can expect.

This bug is a complete show stopper for us: If we can not add a library as an afterthought or if we can’t reinstall a library after having wrongly removed it then productivity is likely to drop to zero.

Either we can entrust MyEclipse on such a fundamental task as adding and removing libraries as often as necessary, or we can't and the game is over.

We do not expect to switch to MyEclipse 6.0 for as long as there is still a part of the development team locked with Eclipse 3.2.2

What is the workaround, or the quick-fix, for the time beeing ?

This would be fixed in MyEclipse 6.0M2.

The workaround for this issue in 5.5 is to create a new User Library named J2EEE 1.4 and add the jars from "<MyEclipse installation directory> \ myeclipse \ eclipse \ plugins \ com.genuitec.eclipse.j2eedt.core_5.5.0 \ data \ libraryset \ 1.4" to this library and then add this User Library to the project.

I am also in need of the workaround for this issue. I guess I can create a new WebApp using J2EE 1.4 and copy all of my code, but that seems very work intensive. Please give us another way.

Thanks!

Sorry, I did not see this replay for some rason before I replied earlier. I now have a question on this workaround. I am a WSAD/RAD user primarily. So, how do I create a "Library" definition in MEIDE? Do I just generate another Java Project?

Thanks again.

No need to create a new project.
You need to create a new user libray
the steps are:
from window/Preferences...
select Java/Build Path/User Libraries
then click on the new... button,
name the new library "j2ee 1.4",
then use the "add jars..." button to add the jars from "<MyEclipse installation directory> \ myeclipse \ eclipse \ plugins \ com.genuitec.eclipse.j2eedt.core_5.5.0 \ data \ libraryset \ 1.4" to this library. That's it.

To use it:
Remove the J2EE 1.4 library that ME add in your project and remplace it by your user library.

Hope this help.

Thanks for the post ZC.
