It is it normal for the Eclipse IDE Resolve/Run Browse Repos panel to be empty? I just checked with another dev and it was empty for him also. When the Core Runtime is selected it just says
Loading Content… forever…
To clarify and answer my question. I was trying to debug a binding using the instructions Eclipse IDE | openHAB under the Debug section, by editing the pom.xml and uncommenting the section that refers to the binding name.
When following those instructions, you won’t be able to resolve/run anything. The window is empty as above.
This is because in the beginning of the pom.xml there is a hardcoded/default section that defines a version, which can be out of date.
<version>2.5.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
And if you have checked out the current tree (as of this writing) the version is 2.5-2-SNAPSHOT. Once you fix the version number to agree with the binding version, then it will work.
Perhaps the instructions should be updated to mention this.
I’ve created a PR to update it
