Hi All,

I have developed a plug-in and exported it.
Then i had put the plug-in in the plugins directory of the eclipse.
I could not find the plug-in in the plugin registry.
I can find the plug-in in the plugins view.
May be i dont have the full concept of plugin registry.

Please provide your inputs here.

Thanks and Regards,
Saurav

Suarav,

These days you should be putting it into the dropins folder if you're
adding it later. You might use -clean -debug as flags when starting and
then look at the <workspace>/.metadata/.log for clues why your plugin
might not be activated (because of missing dependencies for example).

Thanks Lars and Ed for your helpful replies.
I could find out the major reasons were the dependencies were not properly
loaded.

Thanks again.

cheers,
Saurav
