Problem with downloaded Chapter 7 code with Eclipse 3.3

[purtill]

I downloaded the book code plugin from http://qualityeclipse.com/ (QualityEclipse_v2.1.0_for_Eclipse3.3.zip) and installed it, and all works fine up to Chapter 7. But when I load the chapter 7 examples, the code doesn't compile: I get the error:

Code: Select all

The method createContextSnapshot(boolean) is undefined for the type IHandlerService


at

Code: Select all

com.qualityeclipse.favorites/src/com/qualityeclipse/favorites/contributions   RemoveFavoritesContributionItem.java   line 125


I assume this is generated code (it's not mentioned in the book, as far as I can tell), so I'm not quite sure how to proceed. I am using Eclipse 3.3 (on Linux) and I get the same problem with various JDKs, including 1.5 and 1.6).

Hello. I have the exact same problem. Did you resolved it? Thanks.

IHandlerService#createContextSnapshot(boolean) is new in Eclipse 3.4.
In Eclipse 3.3, I recommend modifying the code to call RemoveFavoritesHandler directly.
