hibernate tools does not currently work in eclipse 3.4
------------------------------------------------------

          Key: HBX-1076
          URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-1076
        Project: Hibernate Tools
      Issue Type: Bug
  Affects Versions: 3.2.1
     Environment: eclipse 3.4 ganymede (linux and windows known, probably mac osx as well)
       Reporter: Matt Young


All versions of the hibernate-tools eclipse plugin fail in various ways on eclipse-3.4 (Ganymede). I have obtained various versions of the plugin via the eclipse update sites (both stable and dev) and all have various problems. I first attempted to download the latest from the stable update link (http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/) . I selected the hibernate tools package for install only. It installs but is unusable. It seems to have no ill effects otherwise. When you attempt to add a hibernate configuration in the hibernate console, you get an exception similar to the followng:

I googled this error and it brought me to a hibernate jira page hosted by atlasian. That Jira page recommended using the latest hibernate tools plugin from the dev update site(http://download.jboss.org/jbosside/hibernatetools/updates/development/) so I did. Now this is where all hell brakes loose. After installing the latest version from this site and restarting eclipse, the JEE perspective is completely disabled. JSP files open in a regular text editor. And all of the views that are part of WTP are somehow disabled. And all attempts to update eclipse fail with this exception:

Cannot complete the request. See the details.
Cannot find a solution where both Match[requiredCompatibility:
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xml/[2.1.0,2.1.0]] and Match[requiredCompatability:
....


In short there is no usable version of hibernate tools for eclipse-3.4.
