Eclipse can't start after installing EclEmma plugin

Submitted by rac on 28 October, 2009 - 15:25.

After Installing the EclEmma (1.4.3) plugin for Eclipse (this is for Testcoverage, see http://www.eclemma.org) I had the Problem that Eclipse did not startup again with following Error message: 

 ...
 !ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2009-10-28 14:07:47.690
 !MESSAGE Application error
 !STACK 1
 org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: Not implemented [multiple displays]
        at org.eclipse.swt.SWT.error(SWT.java:3803)
 ..

After some researching and talking with others, I found the solution to get Eclipse startup again:

  • Removing all the files from the plugin
    • rm features/com.mountainminds.eclemma.*
    • rm plugins/com.mountainminds.eclemma.*
  • Reverting platform.xml from History
    • Copy latest xml from the folder configuration/org.eclipse.update/history/ to configuration/org.eclipse.update/platform.xml

Now the Plugin doesn't work but Eclipse is starting up again.

My Eclipse Version this has happened is: Version: 3.4.2 Build id: M20090211-1700
