I had a problem running JadClipse in Eclipse Ganymede. It turns out the Groovy plugin had conflicted with JadClipse. After removing the groovy plugin, JadClipse ran just fine. Btw here's the problem:

Answer 3

Nevermind my question above - my problem was my settings for the path to jad.exe and the temp directory.

In case anyone else has the same problem I did, make sure the path to the decompiler is correct (like "C:...\jad.exe") and leave the temp directory alone (for me it's "C:\Documents and Settings{user}.net.sf.jadclipse").

This is a pretty good utility - infinately more useful than the default class viewer!

Follow the instructions in this link

http://www.devx.com/Java/Article/22657

But when downloading the jadclipse plugin for Eclipse from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jadclipse/

Just download this jar "net.sf.jadclipse_3.3.0.jar" and put it in the Eclipse plugins folder The rest is the same way it is in the first link.

I followed bhupendra's method (add via Help > Software Updates > http://webobjects.mdimension.com/jadclipse/3.3) and it worked for me. Using the jar file directly (even restarting with -clean) didn't work.

Answer 6

I was just able to successfully install jadclipse with Ganymede. In order to do this I: 1) Installed via the help-> software updates http://webobjects.mdimension.com/jadclipse/3.3

2) Put the Jad executable into a directory that is in the execution path of your operating system. Alternatively, you can configure the path to the Jad executable under Window > Preferences... > Java > JadClipse > Path to Decompiler. (Set the full path, e.g. C:\Program Files\Jad\jad.exe)

3)Go to Window > Preferences... > General > Editors > File Associations and make sure that the JadClipse Class File Viewer has the default file association for *.class files.

4) Restart Eclipse (eclipse -clean).

It is now working perfectly for me!
