[ecf-dev] TweetHub issue on the Mac

[Ted Kubaska <ted.kubaska@xxxxxxxxx>]

After the webinar today I wanted to try out TweetHub. And had some difficulty.

I get an error. Here's what I did.
I'm running eclipse 3.5 on Mac OS X. I made a cvs repository
connection to ecf1. I checked out

   org.eclipse.ecf.provider.twitter
   org.eclipse.ecf.provider.twitter.ui
   org.eclipse.ecf.provider.twitter.ui.hub
   org.eclipse.ecf.provider.twitter.ui.hub.product

I made a Run configuration. I found I needed JVM 1..6.0 (Mac JVM 1.5
did not work). I see a TweetHub menu. I click on it and select Login.
I login with my Twitter account. I get the following error message in
the initial eclipse instance.

What am I doing worng? It worked so well in Scott's demo this morning!
