Re: [mylar-dev] Mylar installation problem

[Punit Agrawal <punit@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok this is silly. My bad. I didn't realize that installing the Java 5 JRE 
doesn't automatically make it the default. And Help -> About -> Configuration 
Details pointed this out. So making Java 5 the default got mylar working. 
Hurray!!

Moving on to Mylar monitor, I have the project (and the project which it 
depends on) checked out from cvs. I exported it as a "Deployable Plugins and 
fragments" to the eclipse plugins folder. Everything seems to be going fine. 
On restart I still don't have the Usage Monitor view available in the 
available views. Is that the right way to start using the Mylar monitor? Or 
am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Punit
