"The editor class could not be instantiated" error

amishne opened this issue · 1 comments

An anonymous stackoverflow user reports:

It seams that this editor cannot be opened in eclipse Indego 3.7 and this error is given: Could not open the editor: The editor class could not be instantiated. This usually indicates a missing no-arg constructor or that the editor's class name was mistyped in plugin.xml.

Occurs on version 0.9.4.

Fixed as of version 0.9.6: now Eclipse 3.8 or better is required, for Xtext 2.3, and it will fail to install if Xtext 2.3 is not available. Also updated the FAQ with the simple work-around needed to install this on earlier Eclipse versions.
