How to resolve Failed to create the part's controls in Eclipse Modeling Persective?

I am creating an ECore Modeling Project in eclipse. As soon as the project is created, I get the following error in the Model Perspective:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridData cannot be cast to org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillData

Failed to create the part's controls

See log

I have the latest build of the Eclipse framework:

eclipse.buildId=4.9.0.I20180906-0745
java.version=1.8.0_161
Solution

  • That looks like Eclipse bug 540039 a duplicate of 539333.

    This is marked as fixed in Eclipse Sirius 6.0.2
