Compatibility issues between Eclipse 4.22/ 4.23 and EWM 7.0.2


Andrew Tram (11) | asked Mar 26 '22, 8:10 p.m.

 I've seen this following issues when install EWM 702 on top of Eclipse 4.22 and 4.23:

org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: com.ibm.team.filesystem.ide.ui [748]

This issues can be seen after install and going to the Team Artifacts view - some links like connecting to a repository workspace are missing and triggers those wiring errors.

It seems to have worked up to Eclipse 4.21, but something has changed with Eclipse since then to cause it to no longer work. I understand that EWM doesn't claim support past 4.16, but I was still wondering if someone could look into the issue.

  Interestingly enough, Eclipse 4.23 does include a lower version of javax.servlet compared to 4.21 - javax.servlet_3.0.0.v201112011016.jar vs javax.servlet_3.1.0.v201410161800.jar

Do you use the  P2 install?


Andrew Tram commented Mar 29 '22, 6:25 p.m.

That's correct. It was a P2 install on top of Eclipse Eclipse IDE for RCP and RAP Developers 4.22/ 4.23

I have not used the latest and greatest Eclipse version with EWM lately. I have seen issues in the past. 



Go to All Platforms. Eclipse support is documented in the Prerequisites. The link I get does not work here. 

Supported versions are 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, and now the ones with future fixpacks 4.7, 4.8, 4.11, 4.14, 4.16

There is no support for the versions you list, as far as I can tell. 

Also note the Java SDK currently only Java 8 is supported at the moment.

I use Eclipse 2021-06 (4.20) with an EWM 7.0.2 p2 plugin for my everyday Jazz development. That version requires Java 11 to run. I tried Eclipse 2021-12, but there was a problem with the EWM 7.0.2 plugin with that Eclipse, for which a defect was submitted. However, as Ralph mentions, Eclipse versions later than 4.16 are currently not officially supported.

Interestingly enough, starting with Eclipse 4.21, checking for updates and moving it up to 4.23, then install EWM 7.0.2 works.
