Emacs 24.3.1 CEDET 2.0 (built in) and ECB 20131116.1319: Errors during the layout setup of ECB

cedet, emacs, emacs-ecb

Solution

I was able to get past this error after executing this command in the `*scratch*`

(setq ecb-examples-bufferinfo-buffer-name nil)

YMMV.

Problem

Using the CEDET that comes with Emacs 24.3.1 and the ECB that is in Melpa, I get the following trying `ecb-activate`: ``` All requirements for ECB 2.40 fulfilled - Enjoy it! [2 times] The ECB is now deactivated. ecb-clean-up-after-activation-failure: ECB 2.40: Errors during the layout setup of ECB. (error-type: void-variable, error-data: (ecb-examples-bufferinfo-buffer-name)) ``` Here is the info from the emacs pacakage manager: ``` ecb is an installed package. Status: Installed in `/home/Smith/.emacs.d/elpa/ecb-20131116.1319/'. Version: 20131116.1319 Summary: a code browser for Emacs cedet is a built-in package. Status: Built-in. Version: 2.0 Summary: Setup CEDET environment ``` My question, how to get this to work. Alex Ott's fork of ECB seems to indicate it should.
