oXygen 12.2 does not support Eclipse 3.7 ?

[simmis]

Is the above statement true?

I installed the 12.2 version into a fresh Eclipse 3.7 today. Although it shows up in Eclipse --> Help --> About Eclipse --> Installation Details --> Installed Software --> "oXygen XML Editor and XSLT Debugger | 12.2.0.v2011082411 | com.oxygenxml.editor.feature.group" the oXygen editors are not available in the list (right-click file --> "Open With..." --> "Other..." --> "Internal editors"). Also the Help menu does not contain any oXygen specific entrys.

Do I have do stick with Eclipse 3.6 ?

Hello,

Eclipse 3.7 is supported by the Oxygen 12.2 plugin. If it shows up in the Installed Software list it seems the plugin was installed correctly.

On what file did you right click? Was it one of the file types for which the Oxygen plugin provides built-in support, that is an .xml file, or an .xsl file, or an .xsd file, or an .fo file, etc?

Does the Error Log view display any Oxygen related error?

Does the Help menu contains the items Oxygen Improvement Program Options and Report Oxygen Problem? If you open the Eclipse help from menu Help -> Help Contents does the help window contain the book titled Oxygen XML Editor 12.2?

Mystery solved. Thanks Sorin. I double-checked everything and found the error. The oXygen editors are available again.

Reason: Tired and overworked operator accidentally untarred an old Eclipse 3.5 he downloaded ages ago and tried to apply updates sites for 3.7 on it causing the whole Eclipse installation to end up messed up.

In a sentence: oXygen 12.2 does work with Eclipse 3.7.
