menu disabled in OS X after installation

[rianderous]

Hello,

I installed LPCXpresso on OS X, but I can't activate it because all the menu items are disabled. I'm now using windows, but it would be nice if I can activate and use it on OS X. What can I do? 

Thanks!

Hi Rian,

please follow the instructions in Special Notice for Eclipse IDE Users on macOS 10.13 in non-English mode .

This is a known bug in Eclipse.

thank you very much! Problem is solved!

Hey! Thank you for your answer, but I have exactly the same problem with MCUxpresso. Everything is disabled under file, edit, source, refactor, ...

[lpcxpresso_supp]

We have never seen this problem (and most of the MCUXpresso IDE developers use Mac OS X on a daily basis). What version of Mac OS X are you using?

I have a macbook pro 13" 2017 model without Touch Bar and 256GB storage. It's running High Sierra now. As I've written here above I have the problem with both MCUxpresso and LPCxpresso...

Could you please attach the .log file contained in the workspace .metadata folder? Moreover, try to launch the IDE using the command line by adding the '-clean' option.

This is the lpcxpresso log: Dropbox - .log. I'll try to run it with the terminal. 

EDIT: starting LPC or MCU expresso IDE with the -clean option did not solve the problem.

Hi,

your bug seems to be related to this Eclipse bug: Bug 520176 – [10.13] Menu Bar Disabled From Use Completely and it seems a localization problem.

Could you please attach the Info.plist from "<MCUXpresso folder>/ide/jre/Contents/Info.plist" (see Comment 72)?

Thanks, Regards.

It was a very busy week for me. Almost forgot to post the file here.

Suggest you try MCUXpresso, which has replaced LPCXpresso.
