Eclemma on Eclipse Neon (I can't find icon on toolbar)


enter image description here

I installed Eclemma on Eclipse Neon and the guide says I should be able to find an icon on the toolbar like above. However, I cannot find it and I searched online about this problem and saw some people having trouble with it. But I haven't found a solution to it..

I uninstalled and re-installed Eclemma but I still can't find the icon.


Solution

  • I’ve just had the same problem and a web search led me to this page. If you are using Windows 7 and Eclipse Neon, I found I could get the coverage button to appear (and work) if I:

    1. Run Eclipse as administrator (right click and look for the menu item)
    2. Install Eclemma as normal.
    3. If prompted to restart Eclipse, click on “no”.
    4. Manually close Eclipse
    5. Run Eclipse again as administrator.
