Install the Eclipse plugin using the links method

First, install the Eclipse plugin using the links method
　　
Assuming the Eclipse installation directory is D:\eclipse, the plug-in directory to be installed is D:\eclipseplugins. Take Lomboz,sysdeo eclipse Tomcat Launcher plugin and Xmlbuddy as an example of how to install the Eclipse plug-in using the links method.
　　
1, installation Lomboz
　　
Create the following directory structure in D:\eclipseplugins:
　　
D:\eclipseplugins\lomboz\eclipse
　　
Unzip the Lomboz installation file into this directory, which will contain a plugins directory, which is the directory structure:
　　
D:\eclipseplugins\lomboz\eclipse\plugins
　　
Create a new file under the D:\eclipse\links directory, name Lomboz.link, edit the file, add the following and save it.
　　
Path = D:/eclipseplugins/lomboz
　　
Eclipse will go to the specified directory to find the Eclipse\features directory and the Eclipse\plugins directory to see if there are legitimate features and/or plugins. In other words, the destination directory must contain a \eclipse directory. If found, additional features and plugins are available at run time, and if the linked files are added after the workspace is created, the additional features and plugins are processed as new configuration changes.
　　
The Eclipse directory does not need to be established if the other compressed files are already included in the Eclipse\plugins directory.
　　
2. Install sysdeo Eclipse Tomcat Launcher Plugin
　　
Unzip the tomcatpluginv3.zip into the directory D:\eclipseplugins\tomcatPlugin\eclipse\plugins directory.
　　
Create a new file under D:\eclipse\links, name Tomcatplugin.link, edit the file, add the following and save it.
　　
Path = D:/eclipseplugins/tomcatplugin
　　
3, Installation Xmlbuddy
　　
Unzip the Xmlbuddy installation file into the D:\eclipseplugins\xmlbuddy\eclipse\plugins directory.
　　
Create a new file under D:\eclipse\links, name Xmlbuddy.link, edit the file, add the following and save it.
　　
Path = D:/eclipseplugins/xmlbuddy
　　
　　 second, plug-in management
　　
Start Eclipse, in the menu Help->software updates->manage Configuration ... , enable or disable the plugin.
　　
　　 Third, the description
　　
1. Plugins can be installed in multiple custom directories.
　　
2. One custom directory can install multiple plugins.
　　
3. The name and extension of the link file can be any name, such as Ddd.txt,myplugin.
　　
4. The path path of the Path= plugin directory in the link file is separated by \ \ or/
　　
5. The link file can have multiple lines of path= plug-in directory, corresponding to multiple custom plug-in directories, each line of the path parameter will take effect.
　　
6. There can also be multiple link files in the links directory, and the path parameter in each link file will take effect.
　　
7. The plug-in directory can use relative paths.
　　
8. You can set up a subdirectory in the links directory, transfer temporarily unused plugins to this subdirectory, and speed up eclipse startup.
　　
9. If the plugin is not visible after installation, remove the configuration/org.eclipse.update/directory from the Eclipse installation directory and restart Eclipse.
