I am working on a team project in Java. One requirement is that we dynamically populate a drop-down menu of all classes that implement a certain interface. New classes can be added after compile time. To accomplish this we are using reflection.
Problem: All of the drop-down menus are blank on my system. I cannot for the life of me figure out why they are not populating. All other 5 team members have it working on their system.
Things I tired that didn't work:
1) Installing most recent eclipse (galileo) because rest team was using it
2) Re-install most recent java release (jdk1.6.0-17 and jre6)
3) Check PATH and JAVA_HOME variables
Any thoughts as to what else I can try or if something I did should have solved it and didn't? It is driving me crazy.
Edit: I should have been clearer that we are developing in a team. We are using SVN for version control and we are all running the exact same source code. I even tried checking out a fresh copy of the entire tree from SVN, but I had the same issue with reflection on my system while it worked for teammates.
The team created an executable jar and that ran on everyone's system fine except for mine. Everything worked for me except the reflection bit.
