Hi all,
I seem to have RC2 working. What a pain though. I got RC2 and ran the
Calisto update. I created a new WOLips site and tried to install that
but whenever I checked anything in WOLips, I could not continue. What
I did was install some things that I thought I needed which was the
Models and Model Development package. After that, I was able to
select WOLips as long as I also install almost everything else (see
attached pic).
I restarted Eclipse RC2, switched to the WOLips Perspective, created
a WOLips app (Main displays a string), and ran. Seems to work fine. I
debugged and that works with some problems. I had to click the
Variables view to see the variables. I had to change the default
editor for *.java from the WOComponent editor to the Java Editor or
the debugger would not show which line I'm on. Also, if I click the
line in the Debug view, another WOComponent view is opened instead of
going to the line in the current view.
Overall, it doesn't seem any less useable than RC1. I did notice Mac
style keyboard shortcuts. At this point, my brain shifts to Eclipse-
mode and I use PeeCee shortcuts to move around. I'll actually have to
get used to what I use everywhere else when using Eclipse now :)
