Description Werner Keil CLA 2006-10-24 15:25:41 EDT
As I am using Borland's latest Together IDE (for Eclipse) for UML and other development tasks, I noticed, that Mylar's IDE context seems to clash with that of Together. In particular when Diagrams are involved (the diagram editor does not open any diagram unless Mylar is completely removed from that Eclipse package!)
Comment 1 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-10-26 18:57:39 EDT
Could you please provide more details on how Together IDE works?  Also, what do you mean by "Mylar is completely removed from that Eclipse package"? 

Does Together only what is visible in the Package Explorer?  The most 'disruptive' thing that Mylar does is add a filter, so I'm wondering if that's the source of the problem.

I had to remove it manually (even disabling certain features from within Eclipse did not work, but that might be a Together Bug, not due to Mylar?)
Before I was able to render and correctly open Together's diagrams again.

No, they have their own views like a "Diagram Explorer", etc. Those and the diagram objects are distracted and kept from rendering correctly when Mylar is installed. The rest (Java files, etc.) seems to work fine.

If there is a free or trial version of Together available for download, and a link provided, we may be able to investigate this if a link is posted along with minimal steps to reproduce.
Comment 4 Werner Keil CLA 2006-10-31 08:29:17 EST
Yes, I think, they have something like a 30 day trial.
Comment 5 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-12-08 21:09:26 EST
Mylar is now bundled with JBuilder 2007, and I assume Together will be ported to that version if that has not yet been done.  If there is still a driver for fixing support with this version of Together please feel free to reopen.
