Hi Tom,
I have just got to the bottom of this. It turns out that the PDE tools
weren't installed properly. I was getting 13126 errors, and 2141 warnings,
looking like this:

etc, etc.
Unfortunately, it wasn't immediately obvious what the problem was from the
errors.
I solved this by clicking Help > Software Updates... > Available Software >

Environment > Install.
I think at the very least, we should update the Cookbook instructions,
because the update options for eclipse have changed slightly in Eclipse 3.4.x.
Thanks for your help!

I've been updating my Eclipse installation to 3.4.1 Ganymede, and I've found
that the ArgoUML build does not work with 'Eclipse IDE for Java Developers'.
However, it does seem to work with 'Eclipse Classic'. I don't know why
this is, and I have been installing the PDE tools as instructed. Has anyone
else found this problem?
I've been using Eclipse 3.4.1 on both Ubuntu and Windows Vista for a
while without any problems.
Do you get any errors? What errors? There's really not enough
information to tell what's going on.
Unless anyone objects, I will update the recommended build instructions in
the cookbook to suggest using 'Eclipse Classic'. Although the download is
larger, I think it makes for an easier installation, especially because the
PDE tools are bundled.
I think that's fine as a recommendation if it bundles more of what's
needed, but we should be able to work with other bundles without
forcing the developer to download an entire new bundle. They key to
this is knowing what plugins are dependencies. Hopefully the error
message will give a clue as to which one(s) are missing.
