Description

Symptoms

You may see one of more of the following errors:

Background

Eclipse environments still running on older 1.6 JVM versions are not compatible with one of the libraries used in our software.

Resolution

  • Stop Eclipse environment that contains FusionDebug
  • Delete (or move to a completely different folder outside of your eclipse environment) \eclipse\plugins\com.intergral.fusionreactor.debug.core_3.6.1\lib\tools-1.6.0_18.jar
  • Copy the attached file tools-1.6.0_18.jar to that location
  • Start Eclipse

The errors should now have gone.
