Hi,

I just installed Mars, Eclipse 4.5 for Java Developers.

I started a plugin development tutorial, where the the read is told to go this path to start a new plugin project:

File → New → Project... → Plug-in Development → Plug-in Project.

I don't have that path.

How can I find and install of the components I need for plugin development?

Thanks

Steve

From the menu select Help > Install New Software...
In the Available Software dialog, select the Mars update site (it's URL is http: //download.eclipse.org/releases/mars), then in the list below find "Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment" under the "General Purpose Tools" section. Select that and then you can proceed to Finish the Install dialog.
