I am also unable to install RTC 3.0 into Eclipse 3.6.2 using the p2 repository method. On Windows 7 and on Ubuntu 11.04, I get the same errors reported previously in this thread.
On Windows 7 and on Ubuntu 11.04, I installed Eclipse using the Eclipse Full SDK distributions. I then installed Eclipse XML Editors and Tools Version: 3.2.3.v201102160550-7H7AFUWDxumQJOi9ghcTb5YgkwEZ My Eclipse version is: Eclipse SDK - 3.6.2.M20110210-1200 Let me know if you need any additional information. |

I did a fresh Eclipse 3.6.2 install today to see if I could find an RTC 3.0 install sequence that would work. The following steps worked for me.
1. Install Eclipse 3.6.2. Do not install additional packages. 2. Install RTC 3.0 using the p2 method 3. Install Eclipse Web Tools Platform software (like XML Editors and Tools) Swapping #2 and #3 above appears to break the ability to install RTC 3.0. |
I found that if you install "Eclipse for Java developers 3.6.2" (the smallest (90MB) package) RTC won't install on top because of the Equinox Framework dependency errors.
But, if you install "Eclipse Classic 3.6.2" you can install RTC 3.0 ifix1 on top of it using the P2 even though it has the same Equinox Framework installed. (I love all the dependency problems that Eclipse manages to produce) |
This worked great for me using Eclipse 3.6 (build id 20100917-0705). Thanks for the help!
I've had problems with that approach. It mostly works, but it sometimes results in plugin conflicts on startup, resulting in the workbench layout getting reset. |
