Installed plug-in does not appear in "Plug-in Selection" dialog. Why? [message #256434] Thu, 15 May 2008 10:04 Go to next message

Hello,

I have developed a plugin and installed it in D:\eclipse\plugins.

This plugin appears in the Help->About Eclipse SDK->Plug-in Details,
and it runs nicely (for example, I can open its view).

However, the plug-in does not appear in the "Plug-in Selection" dialog
that shows up when adding a plug-in dependency by pressing the "Add..."
button on the "Dependencies" section of MANIFEST.MF in PDE.

I have also noted this issue with the "com.qualityeclipse.favorites"
plug-in, that comes in the book
"Eclipse: Building Commercial Quality Plug-ins", Second Edition, by Eric
Clayberg and Dan Rubel.

What is required for a plug-in to be listed in the "Plug-in Selection"
dialog?

Thanks
Mário Guimarães

Open the "Target Platform" page in the preferences and hit "Reload"
