2- I'm a noob with java but I devellop with eclipse 3.0 M8 and eclipse 2.1. Today, a friend give me swt-designer 1.2.1 install ("old" version I know ). I unzip the plugin with my two versions (2.1 ans 3.0) and I have differents results.
- with 2.1, I know, I don't have the good version of plugin but withit I can do a new swt/jface project. But after I have the red error message(it's not good version, blabla...) it was just a test for me.

so, I searched two hours, I read the forum, the documentation, but nothing .
I try to select an old project and add the link and librairies(swt.jar and jface.jar) and if I do new file>swt file or jface dialog, it open a dialog but if, I click on the finish button==> nothing.

I reinstall eclipse, swtdesingner, but always the same bug

I know also that I don't have the last version of swt-designer. I tried three times with differents adress to suscribe for download the last version, but for each mail, I didn't receive any confirmation mail (after 2 hours)

So, someone could help a little noob??
Thanks
and please escuse my english

The SWT Designer web site would have made it pretty clear what the problem was. This is a very simple problem with a very simple solution. You are using the wrong version of Designer in the versions of Eclipse you are using. As stated on the web site, SWT Designer 1.2.1 for Eclipse 3.0 is designed to work with Eclipse 3.0 M3 or M4. It will not work in either Eclipse 2.1 or 3.0 M8. For 2.1 support, you need to download the correct version. For M8 support, you need to download the v2.0.0 beta. You might as well delete the version that your friend gave you as it is a waste of time for you to install it into a version of Eclipse that it is clearly not designed to work with.

I know also that I don't have the last version of swt-designer. I tried three times with differents adress to suscribe for download the last version, but for each mail, I didn't receive any confirmation mail (after 2 hours)

Make sure that you are using a real e-mail address (I'm suprised how many people make one up on the spot and expect it to work) and make sure that your spam filters aren't set to eat the message (the number one reason that an e-mail is not received). If you did not receive any e-mail, why didn't you send a message to the support address indicated in the registration process? Had you done that, you would have long since gotten a reply. I would suggest that you do that now...make sure to include all three e-mail addresses so that we can find you account(s).

sorry, I thought that it wasn't enough differents between M4 and M8 for the plugin not working. I understand how you can be tired to see always the same questions please excuse me

I know how work

But you give me an idea, I just tried to give back my pwd. SO i saw that two adress were unknow by the database, et the thirst bobbob601 works. So I just can have my password. I also just verify my other mails to see if I didn't saw a confirmation mail and no, i didn't have any mail
It stay a mistery , but now I can test the beta.

thanks eric.
Your are my hero

ps: I don't have the time to test entierely the plugin, but it seems, it works now THANKS

I thought that it wasn't enough differents between M4 and M8 for the plugin not working.

Actually, the differences between M4 and M8 are tremendous (with extremely major changes occuring between M6 and M7). The Eclipse API is changing (often dramatically) with every new stable build, and most major plugins need to be updated for each release.

I'm glad you were able to download it and get it working. You need to be careful using Hotmail accounts as Hotmail is pretty aggressive about filtering out anthing that might remotely be spam.
