Hi,

I am trying to deploy an editor that was generated via a ecore-model, like described here http://www.vogella.de/articles/EclipseEMF/article.html#emfed itor

So, I am able to launch it in a new eclipse instance. But I like to use the editor as a real plug-in.

While searching I found this: http://agile.csc.ncsu.edu/SEMaterials/tutorials/plugin_dev/# section5_0

I followed the instructions and copied the jar to the eclipse plug-in folder.
After starting eclipse I get the error message:

Unable to access file "plugins/de.saintmetais.dqamm.editor_plugin.jar!META-INF/MANIFEST.MF".

This is the editor I created. But I see no reason why eclipse is unable to access the manifest. It is definetly in the jar at the exact location.

Does anyone know what the error might be?
