Hello everyone!

I've made a simple Hello World plug-in project. I export it, using the 4 steps at the Export in "plugin.xml"

After I have the zip file, I try to install it: About->Install New Software, select the created zip file (I tried also with .jar). But the only thing I get is "No repository found at jar:file/...", so I can't install the plugin.



What do I have to check? What am I missing?

Thanks,
Timo

I think whats Eclipse is missing her is the "Update-Site". If you want
to use the Update-Manager (Install New Software...) you must have create
a Update-Site-Project and export this to zip file.

But, the simple way to install your plugin is to copy the jar file in
the directory eclipse/plugins and restart eclipse.
