Hello,
After downloaded a plugin and unzip it into features and plugin directories
of Eclipse, I open File>New>Other to use it, but I cannot see what I
expected. Any help? Thanks!
Regards,
Sam Hwang

If you still don't see them, run eclipse once with -clean

Hello and thanks,
What do u mean installation failed? I just unzipped
eclipse-SDK-3.0.2-win32.zip to a proper place and run the program and that
is all. Have I missed something?

No, you haven't - I meant the installation of the Plug-in. Possible
cuases of problems when installing Plugi-ns:
- problems with the plug-in regstry
solution of this issue in Chris Laffra's posting of 2005-04-19 16:28h
- plug-in not unzipped to the plugin-directory
plug-in does not show up on the view "Plugins"
- dependencies not met
use the View "Plug-ins" to find out details
- version missmatch
use the View "Plug-ins" to find out details
The Views "Plug-in Registry" and "Plug-in Dependencies" are generally
very helpful!
Hope this helps
