Extension point schema for org.eclipse.ui.editors (and others) cannot be found [message #12714] Thu, 17 July 2008 13:28 Go to next message

Hi all,

suddenly I cannot add new extensions to any extension point. The context
menu only displays "Generic" as possible extension. I found that this is
what happens when the EXSD cannot be found so I tried to right-click "Open
Schema", the IDE tells me that the schema cannot be found.
Running the application still works fine as expected.
Could someone point me to the location where the schema files should be
located and how Eclipse finds them? I searched the org.eclipse.ui*
packages for any .exsd files but couldn't find any myself.

Best regards
Marcus Ilgner

This is because your target platform doesn't contain any exsd files.
What are you developing against? Does your target platform contain the
RCP SDK? Or just the RCP Binary? If it's the binary, you'll generally be
missing these exsd files.

Hi Chris,

thanks for the reply. It seems that I accidentally downloaded the wrong
release version when upgrading to Ganymede. Now I downloaded the J2EE
version as well as the RCP&Plugin-Development one, combined the plugins
from the two and everything is working again.

Best regards
Marcus
