    Hi,

    I have installed Green in Eclipse 3.2/GEF 3.2/EMF 2.2.
    The "Open in UML class diagram" menu is active on a package explorer view. But it does not open any thing with this error message.

    "The chosen operation is not currently available".

    What is wrong?

    Thanks,

    Michael

      Sorry to take long to respond.  The most common
      reason for this problem is that Eclipse is trying
      to use Java 1.4 or earlier to load the plug-in
      class files, which are compiled with Java 5
      (jdk 1.5).

      Yes, there is documentation in the regular Eclipse
      help system.

      Finally, when the plug-in is properly loaded with
      the 1.5 class loader, you will be able to right-click on a .java file, a .class file, a package or a project, in the *package explorer*, to show
      them in a UML class diagram.

      Please let me know how you make out, and if you
      have any further questions!

      Best Regards,
      Carl Alphonce

      I am experiencing the same problem and I am not sure how to correct. I have java 5 and it is the default jre for eclipse and compliance is set to 5.0 as default and yet it still gives me "The chosen operation is not currently available". How exactly do I make sure it uses java 5 to load your project class files

      I also encountered the same problem.
      I've changed the java compiler compliance level to 5.0 under Window->Preferences->Java->Compiler.
      My default JRE in Window->Preferences->Java->JRE in java 1.5.
      I've even removed Green folders from Eclipse plugins folder, restarted Eclipse, copy Green folders to the plugins folder and restarted Eclipse again.
      I still get the message "The chosen operation is not currently available." when trying to use the plugin.

      I'll appreciate your advice.

      Thanks, David.

      yet it still gives me "The chosen operation is not currently available".

      Like David, I have the same problem.
      I have installed Java 1.5 as default jre
      classpath variables jre_lib and jre_src are set to 1.5.0_06 direcotories
      I am trying to use 3.1.1 eclipse,
      the edu.buffalo.cse.green.* are in the plugins directory....and so are the gef 3.1.1
      org.eclipse.gef_3.1.1.jar
      I am using the green for eclipse 3.1.1
      Any other advice for this problem. David, were you able to fix your install.

      I didn't have this problem using Eclipse 3.2.1 and GEF 3.2.1 with Green 2.5.0 RC 3

      See https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4118210

      I faced the very same problem and here is the solution I found:

      1.  Install Java 5
      2.  Make sure to run Eclipse with Java JRE 1.5, should you have multiple versions running on your computer.  (This was my problem).

      => In order to resolve this, I created a 'start_Eclipse.bat' file and use the latter to launch Eclipse.
      => the content of this 'batch' file is:
          D:\tools\jre1.5.0_11\bin\java.exe -jar startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
      (Of course, adapt the path...)

      Hope this helps.

      I have the same error on Mac OS X 10.5
      And also I have a error on 'New' Dialog. When I select the 'Green UML Class Diagram', it makes a 'Problem Opening Wizard' message.

      -------------
      The selected wizard could not be started.
        Plug-in edu.buffalo.cse.green was unable to load class edu.buffalo.cse.green.dialogs.wizards.NewDiagramWizard.
        Bad version number in .class file
      -------------

      How can i fix it?

      Hi.  You are trying with the latest version of green (3.1.0 rc2)?  Could you try giving it a go with the newer Java 1.6?

    Hi, I have a similar problem.

    Using Eclipse 3.5.2, Java 1.5.0_24 on Mac OS X 10.5.8,
    I installed Green 3.5.0 using the update site, without any problems.
    (http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/faculty/alphonce/green/)

    When I try to create a new Diagram, I get the following error:
    The selected wizard could not be started.
      Plug-in edu.buffalo.cse.green was unable to load class edu.buffalo.cse.green.dialogs.wizards.NewDiagramWizard.
      Bad version number in .class file

    Unfortunately, I am using a MacBook Pro from 2006, which is a 32-bit system. And since Apple does not provide a Java 6.0 version for 32-bit systems, your solution is not viable for me.

    Any other options?
