Did anybody get .link files to work under OS-X 10.5.3? I tried .link
files in the "dropins" and "links" folder but Eclipse does not recognize
the plugins. Creating a symbolic link in the dropins folder (using the
path=/blah... section from the link file) to the plugin directory works
- so the path is correct, but I'd rather use .link files. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Peter
