Can't load shared library libxpcom.so #1

Hi, I'm attempting to set up a workstation to develop an HTTP REST API with Eclipse. This plugin looked promising. However, there seems to be an issue when trying to use the HTTP4e Client.

When attempting to open the HTTP4e view (Window->Show View->[...]->HTTP->HTTP4e Client) an error is generated. Initially, I got a message:

http4e_errorno1

Then I set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to point at "/usr/lib/mozilla" (as per: http://gangmax.me/blog/2012/06/28/mozilla-five-home-error-in-eclipse/). The error message generated whne trying to open the HTTP4e view changed to:

http4e_errorno2

Details of software: OS: CentOS7 Eclipse: Indigo Service Release 2 (3.7.2) Firefox: 52.2.0 (64-bit) XULRunner: 31.6.0

So, I looked around for this libxpcom.so file, but it's not on my system. I tried installing the XULRunner package for CentOS7, but this doesn't have the file either.

UPDATE: I installed Eclipse Kepler (4.3.2) and now have no problem.

Was it really issue of this plugin? Does it require native binaries?

I couldn't repro the error, it doesn't require native binaries
