I've previously integrated JProbe 6.0.2 into my RAD (eclipse) IDE without any problem. Now I'm using JProbe 7.0.x and I don't get JProbe icons on my tool bar even though JProbe says that the integration was successful.
POSSIBLE CAUSE 1:
Eclipse plugin for JProbe 7.0.x is changed and moved to Eclipse Run Configuration Dialog.
POSSIBLE CAUSE 2 (only possible if using RAD 7):
Known issue 58888 ( RAD 7 may not pick up new plugins installed in the <RAD7 home>/SDP70Shared/plugins directory). This is discussed in the JProbe 7.0.1 release notes
RESOLUTION 1 (for cause 1):
You can find JProbe icon in the Eclipse Run configuration dialog, Click "Run | Run...| JProbe TM" and Press 'new' button to create new JProbe configuration.
1. Open Eclipse Run configuration dialog
2. Specify all java application settings in the configuration
3. Click "Run" button to export these settings into JProbe Console.
RESOLUTION 2 (for cause 2):
Move the integration plug-in to a new directory outside of the RAD7 install directory (for example C:JProbePlugineclipseplugins) and add this directory as an extension directory. Create a marker file named .eclipseextension in the eclipse directory. In RAD 7, go to Help > Software Updates > Manage Configuration. Click on "Add an Extension Location" and select the C:\JProbePlugin\eclipse directory. Restart RAD and it will pick up the plugin.
