Hi Seyed, >>It's been more than a month for me trying frustaingly to install the >>JessDE on Eclipse but they all failed.
Hers is another thing that you may want to try: You said that you installed Eclipse to the Windows Desktop. Typically, the DOS path to the desktop looks like: C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Desktop Now, historically there have been issues with running Eclipse from a directory which has spaces in its full path, especially its plugins. See http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.technology.imp/msg00089.html For that reason, you might want to install Eclipse to C:\ or C:\Programs(but not C:\Program Files where program code would normally go). In any case, it's probably not a good idea to install application code to your desktop for Windows security reasons. The Documents and Settings folder is a high priority target of many viruses, and it's usually public so that apps can access it. For example, you can see that cookies get written there. Hope this helps, too! Cheers, Jason On Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 2:59 PM, Gary Napier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Seyed, > > I've personally not tried JESS in 3.4 yet.
