Hey there,
I\'m a newbie at making plugins. And I did the hello world example and
everything. Now I\'m making a syntax editor for a simulation tool and I
have written all the necessary classes and manifest file. So everything
seems to be going smooth and then when i go to create my jar file, I tell
it to use the existing manifest file that i have created and i get an
\"invalid header field\" error. Any of you guys know what\'s up with that?

When you are ready to deploy your plug-in, right click on the project,
select Export, then select Deployable Plug-ins and Fragments. Don't use
the JAR File export. Plug-in manifests and JAR manifests are completely
different things.

Thanks Jeff, that seems to be a better way of doing things i guess. Now I
have another problem. I'm going to post it so that many others can see it
to help me.

Thanks again
