 FAQ

    You can find here, I hope, the answers about your questions around Eclipse and its plug-ins.

 I download a plug-in, how to install it ?

    Normally a plug-in contains a jar file plus an XML file : plugin.xml. Most of the cases, it also contains an icons directory.
    Those files are into a directory that you have to move into the eclipse plugin directory with the other ones.

 I put the plug-in directory in the good place, how to see it into Eclipse ?

    Most of the plug-ins are what we call view plug-ins, i.e. we can see them like the tasks or console views.
    Now if your new plug-in is a view, follow these steps :
  • Click on Window,
  • Click on Show View,
  • Click on Other...,
  • Find the plug-in in the list,
  • Double-click on it.
    Normally the plug-in is now visible at the same place as the Tasks or Console Views.
