"JBosstoolsVisualEditorFAQ" To view the document, visit: https://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-10862 -------------------------------------------------------------- *Q: Which platforms are supported by* *Visual Editor?* *A:* The list of supported platforms (and their IDs): * Windows with Java 32-bit (win32.win32.x86) * Windows with Java 64-bit (win32.win32.x86_64) - Experimental support is available in JBoss Tools 4.1.0.Beta1/2 and JBoss Developer Studio 7.0.0.Beta1/2. To enable it, you need to install XULRunner from this update site: http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/staging/xulrunner-1.9.2_win64/all/repo/ http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/staging/xulrunner-1.9.2_win64/all/repo/. If you cannot start Eclipse after this installation, you may use –Dorg.jboss.tools.vpe.loadxulrunner=false option as described in the next question. Please comment https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-2720 this JIRA if something went wrong. * Linux x86 (gtk.linux.x86) * Linux x86-64 (gtk.linux.x86_64) * Mac OS X Cocoa with Java 32-bit (cocoa.macosx.x86) * Mac OS X Carbon with Java 32-bit (carbon.macosx.x86) [not supported by JBoss Tools 3.3.0 and later, JBDS 5.0 and later] In brief, Java 64-bit is supported on Linux only, on all other systems Visual Editor requires Java 32-bit. *Q: Eclipse crashes when I use Visual Editor, what can I do?* *A:* This may happen in JBoss Tools 3.3.0.M2 and above with Eclipse 3.7.0 due to https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-9144 the WebKit and XULRunner conflict. You can disable Visual Editor by adding the option –Dorg.jboss.tools.vpe.loadxulrunner=false to the eclipse.ini (or jbdevstudio.ini if you use JBoss Developer Studio). *Q: Visual Editor does not start under Linux* *A:* Linux users may need to do the following to get the visual editor to work correctly on their machines. * The Visual Page Editor (before JBoss Tools 3.1.0.M4) requires the library libstdc++.so.5. This library is contained in the compat-libstdc++-33.i386 package. * To install this package on Fedora Core or Red Hat Enterprise Linux run the following command: yum install compat-libstdc++-33.i386 ** On any other rpm based distributions download libstdc++.so.5 and run the following command: rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33.i386 ** On Debian and Debian based distributions (e.g. Ubuntu) run the following command: apt-get install libstdc++5 * In case you have the library installed and you still have issue with starting the visual page editor then close all browser views/editors and leave one visual page editor open and restart eclipse. This should force a load of the right XULRunner viewer. *Q: Visual Editor doesn't start at any platform and shows message 'The VPE editor can't be run because your system environment needs to be changed slightly'* *A:* Check if you version of JBoss Developer Studio/JBoss Tools is compatible with you version of Eclipse, see the compatibility matrix https://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-14297 http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/MatrixofsupportedplatformsruntimesandtechnologiesinJBossToolsJBDS *Q: Visual Editor starts OK, but the following message dialog appears:* https://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/102-10862-50-1955/messageNaturesInfo.PNG https://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/102-10862-50-1955/310-120/messageNaturesInfo.PNG *A:* Some functionality of Visual Editor may not work if a project doesn't have org.jboss.tools.jsf.jsfnature or org.jboss.tools.jst.web.kb.kbnature in .project configuration. To fix this problem and turn off the message box execute next steps: * Right mouse button click on a project in Package Explorer. * Select +Configure -> Add JSF Capabilities+ from the context menu. * Configure your project using +Add JSF Capabilities+ wizard and press Finish. *P.S.* If you are sure that your project does not need JSF capabilities, just disable this message box by checking "+Do not show this dialog again!+" checkbox. *Q: Visual Part doesn't start and "XPCOM error -2147467259" is shown* *A:* Something bad happened with buildin xulrunner. To check it you should: * Go to Eclipse -> Help -> About -> Installation Details... -> Configuration * find +org.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath+ and open this path in terminal * try xulrunner.exe -version or ./xulrunner -version and it should show what is needed for XR to work -------------------------------------------------------------- Comment by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-10862] Create a new document in JBoss Tools at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=102&containerType=14&container=2128]
