URGENT - Can't open editors after Update to 2.1.1 [message #89628] Sun, 06 July 2003 18:21 Go to next message

I just tried upgrading Eclipse RC1 from March 2003 to 2.1.1 via Update
Manager. This is the error message that I get when I try to open one of my
source classes for editing:

Cannot open default editor on AdHocBookRequest.java. Unable to instantiate
editor: org.eclipse.jdt.ui.CompilationUnitEditor
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.AbstractTextEditor.setKeyBindingSc opes([Ljava/lang
,


I did these updates via Update Manager. As far as I could tell, the update
processes all worked okay; there were no error messages as such. However,
when the update process ended, there was a warning that said something about
some sort of incompatibility - sorry, I'm afraid I didn't write it down and
don't recall what it said - and it offered me the chance to go ahead or
stop; I think I told it to go ahead. Aside from that, everything seemed to
go fine. I wish I could remember what that warning dialog said....

I can create new classes via the New Class dialog but all that happens is
that the new class is added to my project: the editor never displays it so
that I can add my new code. I've had a look at my source files for both new
and existing classes via the operating system and they seem fine in PFE
(Programmer's File Editor).

How do I get out of this mess? Do I have to run some kind of conversion
utility to reformat my old source files? If yes, where do I get it?

Can I back out this update and go back to 2.1RC? That was working fine; I
just thought I was due for an update so I tried Update Manager for the first
time.

I'm running on Windows XP with all critical service installed.

I would appreciate your help with how to resolve this problem.

I've never use the update manager to upgrade eclipse. I just move my
exesting C:\eclipse folder to my desktop & then unzip the new version to
C:\eclipse. Then I just add my project into the new version once you run
eclipse.exe.

I'm running ver2.1.1 w/o ANY problems!

Why don't you just use "eclipse -data <path-to-workspace>"?
