[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4523) Visual Page Editor doesn't work with Eclipse 3.5 OSX Cocoa

[Erik Mattheis (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4523?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12486859#action_12486859 ] 

Erik Mattheis commented on JBIDE-4523:
--------------------------------------

For the record, I tried the Aptana solution with 32-bit cocoa eclipse - 

1 - copied org.mozilla.xulrunner.carbon.macosx_1.8.1.3-20070904 from the plugins directory of a carbon jboss tools install to the plugins directory of a cocoa jboss tools install
2 - renamed to org.mozilla.xulrunner.cocoa.macosx_1.8.1.3-20070904
3 - edited META-INF/MANIFEST.MF and replaced occurrences of carbon (2 found) with cocoa

After a restart of Eclipse the VPE comes up, but the visual pane is not interactive. If you attempt to make an edit in the source or visual panes, you will see a 'Visual Editor Refresh' background process start and hang indefinitely. Interestingly enough, if you work in the source view, save your changes, close the editor and reopen it, the initial rendering of the page in the visual pane works fine.

Can someone from JBoss confirm that xulrunner is not the issue? By all accounts that I could find, xulrunner should work fine with 32-bit cocoa swt.

> The Visual Page Editor does not work under the final version of Eclipse 3.5 JEE Cocoa for Mac OSX and JBoss Tools 3.1.0.M1, the error is due to a missing cocoa version of XUL runner as you can see in the following stacktrace:
