How to install Eclipse plug-in using links

Current Computer Configuration: xpsp2 eclipse3.4

Now let's assume that my eclipse installation directory is E: \ eclipse-SDK-3.4-win32 \ eclipse, and the plug-in directory to be installed is E: \ eclipseplugins, And I will install erlide and flex plug-ins.

Erlide:

Create the following path in the E: \ eclipseplugins Directory: e: \ eclipseplugins \ erlide \ eclipse, and decompress erlide_updatesite_0.7.0200911031403.zip,

Copy features and plugins to E: \ eclipseplugins respectively,

Path: e: \ eclipseplugins \ erlide \ eclipse \ features and E: \ eclipseplugins \ erlide \ eclipse \ plugins.

Flex:

Download and install flex builder 3.0 first:

Http://trials.adobe.com/Applications/Flex/FlexBuilder/3/FB3_WWEJ_Plugin.exe

Create the directory e: \ eclipseplugins \ flex \ eclipse under E: \ eclipseplugins

Go to the flex builder 3 installation directory

Copy the plugins folder to the E: \ eclipseplugins \ flex \ eclipse directory created above.

Go to the installation directory of flex builder 3 and copy the features directory to the created E: \ eclipseplugins \ flex \ eclipse directory.

Create a links Folder:

Create a links directory under eclipse3.4 and a new erlide under the links directory. link and flex. link file, which is written into the file: Path = E:/eclipseplugins/erlide and Path = E:/eclipseplugins/flex (this path is the actual path of the file)

Other flex:

 Go to the installation directory of flex builder 3 and copy the sdks directory to other directories.

Open eclipse and go to window> preferences> flex> installed flex sdks. Set your flex SDK path.

The same applies to Erlang ..

Restart eclipse.

Eclipse will go to the specified directory to find the eclipse \ features directory and eclipse \ plugins directory to see if there are legal functional components and (or) plug-ins. That is to say, the target directory must contain a \ eclipse directory. If the attached feature and plug-in are found, the configuration is available during the runtime. If the linked file is added after the workspace is created, the additional feature and plug-in will be processed as new configuration changes.

Note:

1. Plug-ins can be installed in multiple custom directories.

2. Multiple plug-ins can be installed in a custom directory.

3. The file name and extension name of The Link file can be any name, such as ddd.txt and myplugin.

4. In the link file, Path = the path of the plug-in directory must be \ or/

5. There can also be multiple link files in the links directory, and the path parameter in each link file will take effect.

6. The plug-in directory can use relative paths.

7. You can create a subdirectory in the links directory to transfer unused plug-ins to this subdirectory to accelerate eclipse startup.

8. If you cannot see the plug-in after installation, delete the configuration directory under the eclipse directory and restart.
