Plugin! How do i use them? Where are they after i installed them? What changed? Why is it not documented? And when it is, why do i not find it in the help-files?
Why can't be there just a new Button or new Menu Entry, after i installed one, just like in thousands other Development Envirements?
If this is something other than in other IDE, then why not mention the differences?
I installed several Plugin and can't use them, because i simply don't find them. What the fuck?
Also: I didn't found a subforum, that fits this. So i posted it here.

In modern Eclipse (since Galileo at least), after best-practice
installation (i.e.: using Help -> Install New Software), they fall under
eclipse/plugins.
For plug-ins that are not set up for installation via the IDE (best
practice), you may still drop them into a subdirectory under Eclipse:
eclipse/dropins.
Once installed by either means, you should find them via Help -> About
Eclipse -> Installation Details. Check the Installed Software and/or
Plug-ins tabs.
It's considered very bad form to use profanity and obscenity in public
forums.
Yes, this is the best forum for this question.

It seems to install and uninstall for me.
I went to Help -> Install New Software, then added it (by clicking Add,
typing in Java Decompiler as an arbitrary name, then the
URL--http://java.decompiler.free.fr/jd-eclipse/update), and then waiting
for it to install (confirming that I wanted to install it and accepting
a certificate).
I'm using Eclipse Helios (3.6).
It also uninstalled cleanly (Help -> About Eclipse -> Installation
Details, then select the software and click Uninstall).
It appears that Emmanuel Dupuy did a fine job on the install/uninstall
aspect of his plug-in.

Good luck with that.
What you've not realized is that your Java Decompiler isn't Eclipse.
It's only a plug-in.
