I've been having issues with my eclim install where in the GUI install, I am prompted for the directory of my Eclipse installation. When I input the directory I can't proceed, with the input bar turning red and the Next button made unavailable.
Here is copy of the post that I made to the eclim-users Google Groups page (which seems to be pretty unresponsive):
I might be missing something trivial here, but I can't seem to figure out what's wrong.
I'm currently working on OS X (El Capitan), with MacVim (7.4). Eclipse.app is installed to ~/Applications/java-mars, so I assumed that was the directory that eclim is asking for in the GUI installation; however, the directory bar turns red and denies me from continuing.
I then tried cloning from git and using ant to build eclim, using -Declipse.home=~/Applications/java-mars/Eclipse.app/, but the build fails, saying org.eclipse.core.runtime doesn't exist. This seems to be located in my ~/.p2 directory, but the build fails when I try with that set in the Declipse.home flag.
I must be overlooking something trivial, like specifying the wrong directory, but any help pointing me to the right direction would be appreciated.
I ended up getting eclim to compile from source, setting Declipse.home to one of the directories in my ~/.p2 where org.eclipse.core.runtime was located, but now I can't seem to execute eclimd with this as my logs:
