Instructions for Reverting to Beta 9

[Glenview Jeff]

I am no longer able to build for Android.  I've submitted a bug report with all of the problems, but in the meantime, would someone point me to how I revert to beta 9 (releases-28 branch) if possible?

[Mirco Dotta]

Hi Jeff, it should be possible to revert to a previous version you have installed by (1) unistalling the current plugin version (Eclipse -> About -> Installation Details -> Installed Software) and then (2) re-installing a previous version from using the "Installation History" (Eclipse -> About -> Installation Details -> Installed History).

Could you point me to the ticket(s) you opened?

Hi Mirco, thanks very much for the instructions!  Unfortunately, attempting to revert this way resulted in the following error:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed

Ouch. I've never seen this and the process I suggested worked for me in the past.

Try to google for it and see if you can find a way to make it work.

On a side note, if it's not going to take you too much time, maybe download a fresh Eclipse
and install the latest Scala IDE plugin and see if you get the same issue reported in the ticket.

What you could also do is `git clone` the Scala IDE repository, checkout the tag for beta09 and
build the ide yourself. Then you could use the local update site created while building the ide
and use it to install the Scala IDE in Eclipse. I know, less than optimal, but it would allow you
to be able to do Android development in Eclipse. If you decide to go through this path, read the
following:

http://scala-ide-portfolio.assembla.com/wiki/show/scala-ide/Building_headless

just make sure to checkout the tag for beta08 (not wip_experiment).

If you need help or have questions, don't hesitate.

It doesn't look like there are any old versions saved on the update
site, or maybe I'm missing something:

http://download.scala-ide.org/releases-29/2.0.0-beta/

I think I asked for something similar before:
https://scala-ide-portfolio.assembla.com/spaces/scala-ide/tickets/1000333-save-versions-of-plugin-on-update-site-

and I got some help here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/scala-ide-user/leRMulgUg5w

This was for the nightlies though, but maybe you can find a nightly
that matches your beta release here:
http://download.scala-ide.org/builds/nightly-wip-experiment-2.9.1.final/

Cheers,
Viktor

Nice! I didn't know that :)

Mirco, I just tried a fresh install of Eclipse+latest beta Scala IDE (release 28, 2.0 beta from http://download.scala-ide.org/releases-28/2.0.0-beta), and TreeShaker.  I created a fresh workspace and a fresh Android project and pasted only the AndroidManifest.xml file and the existing source (copied no old project config files or old workspace files.)

The INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT/LinearAlloc exceeded capacity error persisted.

[Mirco Dotta]

Ok. I've never done any Android development, but I can try to take a look and see if I can figure it out.

Can you share (GitHub?) the simple project you just created. Also, make sure to include a build file
(sbt or maven) so that I can retrieve any needed dependency.

[Glenview Jeff]

I can't figure out which, if any, of these builds would correspond to the beta9 with 2.8 Scala release (Scala IDE for Eclipse    2.0.0.beta09-28-201107201645-529111d)

Thanks so much guys!

Jeff

Beta9 was released the 21th of July. Try this one

http://download.scala-ide.org/builds/nightly-wip-experiment-2.8.2-SNAPSHOT/build-20110720-150750/org.scala-ide.sdt.update-site/

Should be very similar to beta09-28 release.

[iulian dragos]

I fixed this ticket, so you can also try a nightly from tomorrow on.

thanks,
iulian
