BBj 22.xx is tested to run with either LTS version.įor an overview of the issues and options related to selecting the correct version, see BASIS’ Java Break titled “ The End of Free Oracle Java! What to do?”. STEP 1: JAVAīefore you install BBj, Eclipse, or the BASIS Plug-ins on a development computer, you must download and install the latest Java Development Kit (the JDK, not the JRE) for Java 11 or Java 17 (the “Long Term Support” release). Installation Instructionsįor information about setting up earlier versions of Eclipse and Java, see the Eclipse Setup - Historical Plug-Ins page.įollow the steps below in the order they are presented to set up a development computer for BBj 22.xx. BASIS anticipates that this issue will be resolved with the release of BDT 23.00, which will be compatible with Eclipse 2023-03 and beyond. log file it also appears in the Eclipse Error Log view. You can confirm that this is the problem by locating an "unhandled event loop exception" error in Eclipse's. The cause of the underlying problem is a re-packaging of the databinding classes (see Eclipse's Bug 546822).
If you attempt to use Eclipse 2022-12 with an existing BDT, you will find that some user actions fail silently (the most obvious is creating a new BBj Project). NOTE: Eclipse 2022-12 includes a change that breaks compatibility with BDT versions 22.xx and earlier.
To use Java 17 with Eclipse 2022-03, be sure to follow bullet #5 of Step 3 below and add the vmargs listed to your eclipse.ini file. NOTE: Java 17 requires you to add several Java virtual machine arguments to get BDT's WindowBuilder to open ARC files. This page describes how to set up a development computer for those plug-ins so that you can develop BBj code for the current versions of BBj, versions 22.xx, with the latest Java 11 or Java 17 LTS (“Long Term Support” release) and the correct version of Eclipse for Java Developers. BASIS offers BDT and Enterprise Manager plug-ins for the Eclipse IDE, as well as the experimental BBjUtilities plug-in of additional utilities.
