Is Ganymede supported by RTC 1.0.1

Hi

Just tried to install the RTC 1.0.1 windows client into a new Ganymede
Eclipse 3.4.1 C/C++ installation. IM refused to proceed with the follow
message:

Offering cannot be installed into this existing Eclipse installation
configuration because it has features that are not tolerated by the offering
Feature
"org.eclipse.jdt_3.4.1.r341_v20080709-0800-7o7tEAfEF_U5qyUgrb2HAp539P97"
in the existing Eclipse installation does not meet version tolerance
"[3.3.2,3.4.0)" for feature "org.eclipse.pde" which is about to be installed

I'm aware of the workaround that fixes this problem for Eclipse JEE.
However, my team wants to use Eclipse Java Developer and/or Eclipse C/C++.

Is Ganymede not yet fully supported ?

Cheers

Hi David,

I responded to this in another thread as well, but following up in both
places just in case...

The issue you are reporting here looks to be the same as
https://jazz.net/jazz/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/60439

RTC does depend on some features such as pde/jdt which are not included
in those distributions. You should, however, be able to work around
this by using the update manager to install the missing features prior
to installing RTC into it.

My wild guess (based only on the error message you quoted) is that you
have JDT in your existing Eclipse but not PDE. RTC includes both JDT
and PDE. When you install RTC, the Installation Manager tries to use
the existing JDT and to install its own PDE. But the versions aren't
compatible. The PDE 3.3 that is being installed requires JDT 3.3 and
can't tolerate JDT 3.4 that you already have. RTC can tolerate PDE 3.4,
but only has PDE 3.3 available to install.

If your existing Eclipse also included PDE 3.4, then I think the install
would work.

Thanks for the advice.

I'll try installing PDT first

Yes, it does appear to be the same problem. I'll preinstall a PDT and
give it a try

Cheers

Just an FYI

Installing a PDE before trying to install RTC, fixed this problem.

Thanks for your help
