Talk:Eclipse

My latest bout of attempting to install eclipse was a semi-all-nighter that started at 11pm and lasted until 3am. I got all the way to PDT before this came up:

Cannot complete the request.  See the details.
Cannot find a solution satisfying the following requirements org.eclipse.jdt.feature.jar [3.4.0.v20080603-2000-7o7tEAXEFpPqqoXxgaBhhhq].

That was enough for one night.

So, the next morning I got back to it.

I believed that an integration build was what would work for me. And, looked at the list of build requirements to see if there were things that I was missing. The XSD feature seemed like something that I didn't have.

If you go here http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/?project=xsd#xsd and read about it, you'll figure out that you need XSD. You'll find that the update sites are listed http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/updates/ with a little notice at the top about the fact that the XSD feature is actually at the http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/updates/releases/ By careful examination, you learn that you need the EMF 2.4.2 to match up with Eclipse 3.4 So, I successfully installed the EMF 2.4.2 which is a good chunk of software. After trying all of that, I still wound up with the same error about the jdt when trying to install the PDT (and that was my objective). So, I tried a different (earlier) PDT

pdt-runtime-2.0.0GA.zip

Cannot complete the request.  See the details.

What is this JDT thing that I don't have? Well, it's actually in the Ganymede site updates.
