Independent Management of Eclipse plug-ins

We may often add new functions to eclipse, download the plug-ins each time, and decompress the plug-ins in the fetures and plugin directories. This takes a long time and we will not use these plug-ins to manage them. You want to manage the files of each plug-in separately.

In
Eclipse

Create a folder under the Directory
"Myextentions"

(This folder name can be retrieved at will
Eclipse

The standard directory
Eclipse

Directory). This folder is used to store our plug-ins. Use the eclipse Chinese plug-in
For example.

 

In
Myextentions

Create a folder
"Chinese_lang"

(The name can be set at will), and then the plug-in package
To the folder.

In
Eclipse

Create a directory named
"Links"

Folder, which is
Eclipse

Standard Directory. In
Links

Create a text file under the folder and change its name
"Chinese_lang.link"

. Note that its suffix is
. Link

. The name must be the same as the directory where the plug-in is saved. We use
Txt

Open this link in the editor.
In

File input
"Path = myextentions // chinese_lang"

, Save. The relative path or absolute path is used here.

 

Then restart eclipse to identify your new plug-in. In this way, you can save all your plug-ins in a separate directory, and these plug-ins can be managed in an independent directory. To add and delete plug-ins, you only need to modify the corresponding link file.
