The same here on OS X 10.5.5, I had to reinstall Eclipse from scratch with the latest SR1 package to make everything work. It reminded me of something... :)
Anyway it looks like the base eclipse update broke the installation, not the m2eclipse update. Fortunately all the settings are in the workspace outside the Eclipse directory so they are easily preserved, the only problem was that I had to reinstall all the plugins, including m2eclipse. I experienced a similar problem at each Eclipse update when I was still trying to have eclipse packaged as a typical Mac OS X bundle. The procedure involved moving those parameters in eclipse.ini to the Info.plist file, so I had to remember to change them everytime the "companion library" name changed. http://magomarcelo.blogspot.com/2007/02/eclissi-di-san-valentino.html Now I don't bother anymore as this procedure doesn't work with p2, the only thing I have to remember is to set the --vm parameter to 1.5.0, as I have the 64bit 6.0 JVM by default which unfortunately is not supported yet by SWT. --m Eugene Kuleshov wrote: > > > Does anyone else experienced this issue on OSX or elsewhere?
