OK
Not sure if this is the right forum - but here goes. Just came back to a servoy app that has been running happily for months (5.5.0 - 859)
Did an ‘update’ to make sure I pulled the version running on the server into the local workspace.
When I click on ‘start smartclient’ or start webclient’ I get ‘There are errors/warnings in the project. Are you sure you want to launch’. If I click OK the applet runs just fine - as far as I can tell.
But - How do I get to see what those ‘errors/warnings’ are? Probably just my forgetfulness with Eclipse but how do I see errors in the project?
And
I can see a little red cross against svyCore - when I open out I see a cross against core_dlg_generic.frm
If I open that form in form-editor - the developer hangs…hmm something wrong here…what can I do?
Eventually developer comes back to life but is very slow editing that form - suspect it’s corrupt?
Can I restore just one form in svy_Core - or do I have to restore everything? If so how?
Thanks

Hmm,
well the issue was somehow I had ‘turned off’ all the tabs in my eclipse environment and couldnt work out how to turn them back on…not an eclipse expert
So I couldnt see the errors cos I couldn’t see the tab.
So I created a new workspace and checked out the solution and guess what - no Svycore error - and all the tabs were back including the problem tab…which has allowed me to trouble shoot the 10 very trivial errors (a form with a rerfrerence to an non-existent global and elements outside borders etc) in the application.
So the issue is resolved - obviously there was something screwed in the local svy_core but I couldnt fix it, or overwrite it from the repository version.
For future reference can anyone tell me how to get that ‘tab’ view back (including problems) if I somehow turn it off again?
Dumb question I know but a killer if you cant fix it…

You can always ‘reset’ your perspective by right-clicking on the perspective button and select Reset. Or select the menubar > window > reset perspective menuitem.
If the tab (it’s called a view) still isn’t back then it wasn’t part of the default perspective and added later.
To add it you can click on the little icon at the bottom:
[attachment=0]add view.png[/attachment]
When you click this you can search/browse for all the views that are available in your Eclipse environment. Just select it and hit OK.
Now you are not done yet!
The view is hovering over all your other views in your perspective. When you click outside of this view it will collapse and will show up as an icon at the bottom of your perspective screen.
So how to keep it open ?
Simple, you make sure it’s open to begin with (if it was collapsed) and then drag the tab to a place somewhere in the perspective until it shows a rectangle in that spot and let go. Now the view is docked into that spot like all other views are.
