Eclipse can't start after installing EclEmma plugin

You can't request more than 20 challenges without solving them. Your previous challenges were flushed.

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
