Modeling Plug-in is incompatible with Eclipse 3.6 (Helios)

[eliasbalasis]

Has anyone tried to run "Application Modeling Plug-in for Adobe Flash Builder 4" with Eclipse 3.6 (Helios)?

I did

and found out that the "Data Model" editor is not opening because of some plug-in related errors

More specifically, Eclipse "Error Log" reports the following when opening the data model editor on a Flex project

Message:

However, the plug-ing works perfectly under Eclipse 3.5

I conclude that the plug-in is not compatible yet with Eclipse 3.6 (as the name of the downloaded archive suggests)

Any plans for releasing an Eclipse 3.6 compatible version?

[please_enter_a1]

There are specific versions of theModeler plugins for LiveCycle Data Services 3.1 for Eclipse 3.4 and 3.5, as the download links indicate. A released version of Eclipse 3.6 was not available when these Modeler plugins were developed and released. The next releases of the Modeler and Flash Builder, currently in development, are based on Eclipse 3.6.

[eliasbalasis]

I will wait until Eclipse 3.6 based versions are released

Meanwhile, I will keep using Eclipse 3.5 based releases. No significant problems so far.

Adobe tools are very good (ignoring the outrageous pricing for LiveCycle Data Services )

Thanks
