Error while creating Hybrid Mobile Application Project in eclipse

Question

I have eclipse Oxygen and have Thym and IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation plugin installed. However when I try to create a new Hybrid Mobile Application Project, I got the following error:

Can not retrieve plugin catalog
Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed JSON at line 1 column 1 path $

Any suggestion on how to solve this issue ?

Answer 1

The IBM MobileFirst Studio plug-in helps you manage your Cordova project in the Eclipse development environment. Cordova projects are typically managed by entering commands on the Cordova command line.

Eclipse Oxygen is not supported by MobileFirst yet.

Supported Latest Eclipse Versions for MobileFirst & Thym plug-in: Neon (4.6)
