RE: [platform-core-dev] Problem in eclipse 3.0
 | 
     Thanks for your 
support.
     It worked for me by using 
-clean command. I had started eclipse once after installation before adding 
plugins in "plugins" dir although plugins where new.
 
    Regards,
    Pradeep

New plugins should be detected 
  automatically as normal.  If you are convinced that you have an 
  absolutely fresh Eclipse install and all you are doing is dropping some new 
  plugins into the "plugins" dir then please enter a bug report with all the 
  details.  if you are dropping in features or changing existing plugins 
  then more/different steps are required. 
BTW, you only need -clean if you go and CHANGE something in a 
  PREVIOUSLY installed plugin (after running Eclipse once).

If you are installing extra plugins over the basic 
  Eclipse install, you should either: 
a) Use the update manager (Help > Software 
  Updates). This would require the third party plugin to be located on an update 
  site, or be packaged as a product extension. 
b) Drop the extra plugin into the plugins 
  directory, and then start eclipse with the "-clean" command line argument. 
  This will force Eclipse to search for an install all plugins in the plugins 
  directory.
