When installing Rational Software Architect Standard Edition 7.5.4 (and RAD 7.5.4) onto Ubuntu 9.10 it is likely that you might experience a few problems. This posting identifies these problems and their solutions.
The first is a missing library:
- http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/libstdc++5/download
The second is an SWT error inside your initial workspace's .log file: /home/jsears/IBM/rationalsdp/workspace/.metadata, with: org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: XPCOM error.
- sudo apt-get install xulrunner
- sudo vi /opt/IBM/SDP/eclipse.ini with -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/lib/xulrunner
The third problem is to do with GTK affecting various buttons such that a mouse click is not enough for the button to be dismissed. The answer to this is to invoke eclipse not by the main menu but via a .sh script (with an icon image of /opt/IBM/SDP/rsa_se/RSA_v7_32.xpm):
- export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true
- /opt/IBM/SDP/eclipse -product com.ibm.rational.rsastd.product.v75.ide
Only by carrying out these things was I able to start the IDE and use it as expected:
