Fail to install UML Designer (Debian Buster)

[ValentinBesnard]

Hello,

I have tried to install UML Designer using the zip bundle but I have a crash saying that a bug occurs outside the JVM in native code.

So I have tried through the update site with the Eclipse Marketplace.
I have got the following error:

" Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: UML Designer 9.0.0.201901300933 (org.obeonetwork.dsl.uml2.runtime.feature.feature.group 9.0.0.201901300933) "

Maybe a missing dependency...

Regards

Valentin

Same on Windows 7 / 64 bits

Actually, the org.obeonetwork.dsl.uml2.core.runtime.feature is missing in the Update-Site.
Fixing locally the update-site fixes te issue on my side.

• org.obeonetwork.dsl.uml2.runtime.feature

Hi,

I'm on the same boat with 9.0.

@fbergomi-tas Could you please be a little bit more specific about what "locally fixing the update site" means? I don't fully understand what should I modifiy...

Hi, Sorry, my message was incomplete !

Here are the steps I followed :

• Made a local clone of the git repo
  (I can’t do a commit or a pull request back to github, due to limitations from my company proxy.)

• Adapted feature org.obeonetwork.dsl.uml2.runtime.feature
  --> Removed link to itself (requires / import)

For my specific configuration, I also adapted the update site “org.obeonetworks.dsl.uml2.update”
--> site.xml (or category according to your preference)
--> Where I made sure that these features are present (only them)
org.obeonetwork.dsl.uml2.runtime.feature
org.obeonetwork.dsl.uml2.core.runtime.feature

• Built org.obeonetworks.dsl.uml2.update update site
  --> installed :) works :) cool :)
