Resolve Missing Builder error for eclipse in CC&B (ORMB)

CC&B (Customer Care And Billing System) or ORMB (Oracle Revenue Management And Billing System) (Previously named as “SPL” before Oracle acquires it) are the same application with use in different domain.  This application is used to maintain all the billing, collection and payment related operations of the underlying company.  I am going to write few articles on this product from today which i feel can be helpful to others.

One problem faced by most of the starters of CC&B (ORMB) in eclipse is “Missing Builder (com.splwg.tools.dbConnection)” error as shown in below image.

Because of this error, eclipse does not compile any java files and therefore “cm.jar deployment” doesn’t work.

Reason of above error:

As you can see in above image, if we right click on project and enter values in “SPL Database Properties”, it will override the default settings of “.project” file. There is no need to enter the value from here for the database configuration.

There is another way by using “Windows Preferences”.

To resolve the error, open the “.project” file of eclipse and replace

<buildCommand>
<name>com.splwg.tools.dbConnection</name>
	<arguments>
		<dictionary>
			<key>password</key>
			<value>PWD</value>
		</dictionary>
		<dictionary>
			<key>username</key>
			<value>UNAME</value>
		</dictionary>
		<dictionary>
			<key>url</key>
			<value>DBURL</value>
		</dictionary>
	</arguments>
</buildCommand>

by below code

<buildCommand>
     <name>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder</name>
       <arguments>
       </arguments>
</buildCommand>
