Hi! I whant to learn PDE!
How can i import the Eclipse SDK examples as a plugin project, i already installed them from the update site.
Now i whant to see and run the plugin for JavaEditor example.
The problem is that they say
"The code for this example is in the org.eclipse.ui.examples.javaeditor plug-in. To explore the code it is recommended to import that plug-in into your workspace."
How can i do this? Till now i only managed to extract the jar and link the source code to a java project! But i whant the example in a plugin project like it should be.

André,

You can use File -> Import... Plug-in Development -> Plug-ins and
Fragments, specify "Import As" to use "Projects with source folders" and
then pick the ones you want on the next page.

I cant do that, i do the steps you pointed but when i have to choose a plugin to the list of plugins to import there is none! The directory is right one i think the problem is that when i extract the jar the files win a messy organization, like org/eclipse/sdk/examples/ (then some .java files and more subdirs) .
It creates so many useless folders i dont know why?
