Hi,

I've been trying to get Derby working with eclipse 3.4.1, aka Ganymede.

I followed the instructions on the derby site, unzipping and copying the files to the ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins dir:

plugins/org.apache.derby.core_10.4.2
plugins/org.apache.derby.ui_1.1.2
plugins/org.apache.derby.plugin.doc_1.1.2

For this version of eclipse, there is already a Derby core in the plugins dir:

org.apache.derby.core_10.3.1.4:
META-INF    about_files    derby.jar
about.html    asl-v20.txt    plugin.xml

The eclipse update manager does not report it as installed, oddly enough. However, it does get picked up.

When I restart eclipse, the Derby UI and docs are available, but it is picking up the 10.3.1.4 version of the core, because only derby.jar is available.

I know this because when I run ij from eclipse I get:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/ derby/tools/ij

on the console window.

That tool is in derbytools.jar, which is not in the 10.3.1.4 core plugin dir.

If I delete the org.apache.derby.core_10.3.1.4 dir, and restart, 10.4.2 is still not picked up.

Something is wrong with the plugin for 10.4.2 for eclipse 3.4.1.

Has anyone seen this before?  Got a fix?

Thanks,
--Kent
