I downloaded the latest Eclipses and unzippped in on my MacBook. When I try to run it, I get an error that tells me to look in ~/Documents/workspace/.metadata/.log. This is the error message in that log:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 2006-04-25 21:24:29.412
!MESSAGE Application error
!STACK 1
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /Users/michaelhostetler/eclipse/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/63/1/.cp/libswt-pi-carbon-3139.jnilib:

	at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:822)
	at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:992)

So something it’s being found or the classpath isn’t setup correctly. Anyone in Lazyweb-land have an idea?

   All I have to do is do the right Google search. That lead me to here:

   Eclipse 3.1.2: There is no Eclipse 3.1 build that does start on the intel machines. The latest Eclipse 3.2 milestone 5 is already a universal binary. Unfortunately my current project depends on SWT 3.1 and therefore I have to use the latest 3.1 stable version.

   Silly Eclipse.org gave me a build that wouldn’t work! Luckily, Eclipse 3.2 is on RC1a, so it should be stable.
