I got the following Keel Plugin error when I select the
Keel preferences:
The configuration file named
main_questions.xml was not found
within the plugin's directory,
which should be in
c:\workspace\..
plugins
org.keel.plugin.preferences_1.0.0
conf
This is probably a programming
error by the plugin's developer,
so you probably need to call
him/her and tell him
I'm also getting for each Keel preference under the main
one too. My workspace directory is NOT within the
eclipse directory structure. Perhaps, the plugin is
assuming that were in the same hierarchy. In my case,
the plugins folder exists under c:\eclipse-3.0.m5, but my
Keel workspace is c:\workspace. Perhaps you were
assuming an integrated directory structure, where both
workspace and plugins were located within the same
parent Eclipse directory. However, the workspace can
be located anyway, especially when you have multiple
workspace projects. Right now, I can't try out the
preferences until the path problem is resolved.
I confirmed that it's not a problem with plugin packaging,
but the path construction and/or reference that needs
to be fixed. To verify this, I just copied the Keel plugins
from my Eclipse directory over to my Keel workspace
parent directory, and the Keel preferences then work.
Of course, this is only a temporary fix until the problem
is resolved because this will probably be updating the
copies of the preference files rather than the ones in the
real plugins folder. Anyway, it confirms that it's a path
problem, and at least for now I can at least work with
the Keel plugins for testing, feedback, etc. Others might
use this as a workaround to get something working for
now until Pete can address the problem.
