    <h2>Background</h2> <p><em>Goal: I am attempting to install the Simics Tools for Eclipse plugin on Windows 7 64-bit.</em> </p> <p>I am using Eclipse Indigo for Java (64-bit &lt;-- This will be a problem later) and have just installed the C/C++ IDE plugin, GEF draw2d plugin, and the Simics Tools for Eclipse. Once the installation of these plugins successfully finished, I restarted Eclipse and proceeded to launch Simics Control from inside Eclipse. An error dialog stated that this plugin could not run on 64 bit Eclipse.</p> <p>To solve this problem, I decided to install a 32-bit version of Eclipse next to my current setup and to uninstall the plugins I had just installed (C/C++, GEF, and Simics) from Eclipse. First, I was going to remove the plugins to avoid wasting space. I went to <strong>Help->About->Installation Details</strong> and selected the installed plugins to uninstall. Removing the plugins appeared to be successful until I restarted Eclipse. </p> <h2>Issue</h2> <p>After the removal of the plugins, when Eclipse launches, the splash screen appears without a progress bar along the bottom to show what is currently being loaded. After a few seconds, the splash screen disappears and an error dialog shows up: <em>An error has occurred. See the log file C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse\configuration\1322503657546.log</em></p> <p>Contents of 1322503657546.log:</p> <pre><code>!SESSION 2011-11-28 12:07:37.255 ----------------------------------------------- eclipse.buildId=I20110613-1736 java.version=1.7.0 java.vendor=Oracle Corporation BootLoader constants: OS=win32, ARCH=x86_64, WS=win32, NL=en_US Framework arguments: -product org.eclipse.epp.package.cpp.product Command-line arguments: -os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86_64 -product org.eclipse.epp.package.cpp.product !ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2011-11-28 12:07:39.521 !MESSAGE Application error !STACK 1 java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "" could not be found in the registry.

    1. COAre you trying to load an existing workspace? It's possible that the workspace contains settings that expect the uninstalled plugins to be there. Try loading a brand-new workspace.

    2. COProblem is, I can't launch Eclipse at this point to load a workspace. Paul's answer below fixed it for me. Thanks for the response though.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
