I've just created a brand new Win10 VM and wanted to install a clean Eclipse environment.
Downloaded:
- Eclipse Oxygen 1 Release (4.7.1)
- Java jdk-9_windows-x64_bin
After installing Eclipse and Java, I had to changed the Ini-File and add the following entry:
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
Then added the ConnectIQ URL to download the SDK.
Everything seemed successful, but the compiler didn't start. Found out that it is related to Java JDK 1.9, which is not supported :(
Downloaded:
- Java jdk-8u144-windows-x64
Now the compiler automatically found its JDK 1.8 components automatically!
Forgot to add the development key, which was observed.
But from then on, the Simulator does not start. There is nothing in the Console, nor in .metadata\.log
How can I find out what's wrong? Or where is a useful supported version overview from garmin?
The GetTheSDK says nothing about supported Java or Eclipse versions.
The GettingStarted is even worse:
you?ll need Oracle Java? Runtime Environment 8 (version 1.8.0 or higher) installed.
Which is wrong! higher is not supported by the Eclipse compiler!
Eclipse Mars or newer
Would suggest, that Oxygen is fine...
