hi,

I am using the version of eclipse below, when I go to software updates ->
find and install, search for new features to install, then select
eclipse.org update site, I do not get any of the webtools, uml etc
projects listed. All i got was eclipse sdk samples and ftp/webdav plugins.
What am i missing.

Eclipse version
Version: 3.1.2
Build id: M20060118-1600

According to this link
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextools.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E /emf-home/docs/UsingUpdateManager/UsingUpdateManager.html

I should have gotten all sorts of projects listed.

I'm finding that I have to either first download and install the zip file of
the extension before it becomes visible on the Upgrade dialog, or else find
out what the exact update URL for an extension is and manually add it to the
Update dialog.

Just using the Update dialog as is only seems to find specific projects that
I presume are hosted/updated at the eclipse.org site, which is NOT all
projects. You can uncheck the "not for this platform" option and some other
projects at eclipse.org might appear if you don't already have them
installed (i.e. EMF), but that seems to be it.

I've installed PHPEclipse, Quantum DB, and Subclipse, and in all cases I had
to download the zip file, extract it so it's inherent folder structure lines
up properly with the eclipse directory structure, and only THEN would those
show up as available Update sites.
