How to uninstall a plugin? [message #154003] Fri, 07 November 2003 07:57 Go to next message

Maybe this is a stupid question, but I cannot figure out how to get rid of a
plugin. I know that I can revert to a previous configuration, but that's not
what I want. I installed plugin A, then plugin B, and now I want to uninstall A
but keep B. Is this possible at all?

Thanks,
Lutz

a.

How did you install the plugins?
If you just unzipped them, then simply remove eclipse/plugins/pluginA.
(Eclipse 3.0 only) If you used the update manager, then open
Help>SoftwareUpdates>Manage Configuration, disable the feature that
installed plugin A, then uninstall it.

For now it is just delete the plugin assuming no feature or other plugin
points to it.

I heard that 3.0 may look at this (if they haven't already) to get an
official uninstall mechanism.
