CFEclipse on Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede) Problem - JavaFileEditorInput Error

Well, I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede) this week. I was still on Eclipse 3.2 and never made the jump to 3.3. It was mostly because none of the plugins I used required 3.3.

However, I decided to try out the new UML2 modeling framework that is bundled with Ganymede. I've been doing a lot more UML modeling and a whiteboard is not just cutting it any longer.


I upgraded and installed all my plugins, but when I opened a .cfm or .cfc file - CFEclipse threw a "cannot open editor" error with this in the stack trace:

org/eclipse/ui/internal/editors/text/JavaFileEditorInput


I at first suspected that I hadn't installed the newest version of Mylyn (because of some other sleuthing), however that was wrong. I then tried the new CFEclipse 1.3.2beta and it now works. That is the solution so far. I thought I would blog this so other people might know.
