Re: [ide-dev] Propose marketplace solutions for missing natures

[Carsten Reckord <reckord@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Please note that the nature discovery is disabled by default in M6 until we've ironed out a few kinks.

In order to try it out right now in Oxygen M6, please add the following to your eclipse.ini:

-Dorg.eclipse.epp.mpc.naturelookup=true

And please provide feedback on the bug (or open new ones for dedicated issues).

Thank you,
Carsten

There's also https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/draw2d-preview ;P
