NumberFormatException when editing 5.3 activiti diagram

Hi,

This problem is solved in the trunk.
I also created a new archived update site that has these fixes in it at http://www.activiti.org/designer/archived/activiti-designer-5.4.1.zip.

Best regards,

Thanks. The archived update site has a couple of problems…
- The site.xml is in a sub-folder site so by default Eclipse won't find it. I got past this by modifying the URL is creates from the file picker to be jar:file…..jar!/site/site.xml. (The bold bit is what I had to add)
- Although the zip is numbered 5.4.1 the feature bundle and xml file still say 5.4.0 so Eclipse won't let me install it over the existing 5.4.0.

I realise I could install in a fresh Eclipse or even overwrite the existing files but I think for now I'll wait. Let me know if you put together an updated archive site.

Hi,

The update site works fine if you install it with the local update site functionality in the install software wizard of Eclipse. Did you use the archive option?
You are right that the version is still 5.4.0, so you have to install it to a fresh Eclipse.
Version 5.5.0 will have a new version number.

Best regards,
