| <h1>Troubleshooting</h1> |
| |
| <h2>Check Your Ids</h2> |
| |
| <p>This is the most common problem in configuring the CNF. Make sure |
| the Ids match exactly what you expect them to. </p> |
| <h2>Is it a Wildcard or Regular Expression?</h2> |
| |
| <p>Be sure that the <code>includes</code> and <code>excludes</code> |
| Ids for the navigator content extensions or filters are actually <b>regular |
| expressions</b> and not wild cards. So if you are looking for <code>com.mycompany.myplugin*</code> |
| (this is a wildcard), make sure you use <code>com.mycompany.myplugin.*</code> |
| (which is a matching regular expression). The former will find things |
| like <code>com.mycompany.mypluginnnnn</code>, but won't find <code>com.mycompany.myplugin.function1</code>. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Tracing</h2> |
| |
| <p>The CNF provides tracing that can be helpful to resolve problems. |
| To enable the tracing go to the <b>Tracing</b> tab in the <b>Launch |
| Configuration Dialog</b> and select <b>Enable Tracing</b>. Then check the <code>org.eclipse.ui.navigator</code> |
| plugin, and on the right check <b>debug</b> and <i>also</i> one of the |
| following:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><b>debug/setup</b> - Shows the processing of the |
| configuration.</li> |
| <li><b>debug/dnd</b> - Shows all aspects of drag and drop |
| processing.</li> |
| <li><b>debug/resolution</b> - Shows the resolution of an object to |
| its navigator content extension.</li> |
| <li><b>debug/viewermap</b> - Shows the low-level map that associates |
| the Navigator Content Extensions with active elements in the viewer.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p> |
| If you require support, include the tracing when you report your problem. |
