Unknown Window Type (Parsing Error)

[jgunther]

I'm having some issues with version 3.0 of the SWT Designer. When I try to open a composite, I receive a "Unknown Window Type (Parsing Error)".

Please help!

Here is the exception from the log:

I'm having some issues with version 3.0 of the SWT Designer. When I try to open a composite, I receive a "Unknown Window Type (Parsing Error)".

I would try the following in order:

1) Delete your Eclipse "configuration" directory and re-start Eclipse

2) Install the latest v3.0.1 build

3) Send us a test case
