Im trying to add a GUI to my program but I am faced with this error when I create a "Window builder > Swing Designer > Application Window". I searched for an answer and it may be caused by having JDK 9 but I just installed JDK 10 and still am getting this error. Here is the error:
Plug-in "org.eclipse.wb.core.ui" was unable to instantiate class "org.eclipse.wb.internal.core.editor.multi.DesignerEditor"
Here is the detailed error:
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: Plug-in "org.eclipse.wb.core.ui" was unable to instantiate class "org.eclipse.wb.internal.core.editor.multi.DesignerEditor".
