Bulid problems with LWJGL and Eclipse

[Falc]

Hello!

I'm pretty new to Java (moved over from C++) and after including the "lwjgl.jar" and the "lwjgl_util.jar" and run the project in eclipse I get this error :

usage:
XPMFile <file>
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0
	at org.lwjgl.util.XPMFile.main(XPMFile.java:260)

Google didn't helped and now I hope you guys can. 

I use Vista x64 and the last eclipse, jdk and lwjgl verison (downloaded everything today).

what sort of code are you running? could be a problem in your code.

[Falc]

I just included the files and didn't used the libs in the code yet.

package en.geron.first;

public class Main {

	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		System.out.println("Hello Eclipse!");
	}

}

odd how you can even get that error when your not even calling any code from your code.

How and where did you add the lwjgl.jar and lwjgl_util.jar's?

use netbeans, it's fairly easier !
I found eclipse very complex (and slow on a 2G RAM Windows) some time ago.

Troll.

As kappa points out, that error makes no sense. I would suggest your run profile is pointing at the wrong class, you should be able to just right click on your class and select run as java application.

Since it's Windows I would also recommend checking your paths. In Eclipse you may also need to set the paths in the user libraries, I did in mine, under "Native library location" for each jar in the listing.

That's later on in the process, but yeah, the other way to do it is to add -Djava.library.path=<directory of the dlls> on the run profile.
