Plans to support MDG with Eclipse 4.2 (Juno)?

[Daniel Pavic]

I would like to use MDG Integration with Eclipse 4.2 (Juno).

Unfortunately it does not match the system requirements (= Eclipse 3.3). The menu-bar in Eclipse 4.2 appears, but whenever I use any menu-item, Eclipse IDE shuts down immediately.

Therefore my question: Are there any plans to support Eclipse 4.2 within the next months? What are the release-plans for MDG-Integration that support the latest Eclipse IDE?

Thank you in advance for any reliable information

Hi
I am successfully using Juno Eclipse with the MDG integration

Suggest you contact sparx support

Hi,

Thank you for your quick reply!
Happy to hear that there is a way to make it work!
I will definitely contact support in this case.
Still, could you give me any instructions or hints how you made it work - or did it work out of the box for you?

Thanks again, Daniel

Hi
Worked out of the box for me!
Have you been using a previous release of Eclipse with MDG?
You could try uninstalling the MDG and re installing

Is you eclipse 32bit or 64 bit?
presumably you are using windows 7?

Great news for me ... therefore it's most likely an issue with my development system. I am using a virtual server with Windows 2008R2 (which is the Win7 core), Eclipse x86 (no 64 bit) and had no previously version of MDG Integration installed since I just set up a new server.

I will give it a try on a local system since it might also be a restriction of the Windows 2008R2 server. Thank you again for your feedback! It showed me that there is a way to succeed with the latest Sparx MDG and Eclipse

Hi,

Thank you for your information! It made me insist trying.
The following combination works for me:

- Windows 2008 R2 x64
- Java SE Development Kit 7 Update 21 + JRE 7 Update 21 (installed both: x86, x64)
- Eclipse Juno (file: eclipse-jee-juno-SR2-win32.zip), decompressed with 7zip, copied into dir "Program Files (x86)\Eclipse")
- MDG Integration for Eclipse 4.0 (file: EAEclipse_Integration.exe)

Thanks again for your help!! Now looking forward to figure out how MDG Integration supports my development process
