Make sure you provide a class for the "preload" extension point. This was
not required before, but it is in Eclipse R3.2. For example:

com\mycompany\lpexExtensions\Preload.java:
package com.mycompany.lpexExtensions;
import com.ibm.lpex.alef.LpexPreload;
public class Preload implements LpexPreload
{
public void preload()
{
// nothing needed to do here...
}
}

plugin.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.2"?>
<plugin>
<extension
point="com.ibm.lpex.preload">
<preload
class="com.mycompany.lpexExtensions.Preload"
id="preload"/>
</extension>
</plugin>

Hi,

i have a problem with a plug-in in WDSC 7.0, witch extends the LPEX

editor.

In WDSC 6.0 i have no problems. Here it works fine. I have created a

class

witch has implemented the interface "LpexAction". In eclipse at
"Window/Preferences/LPEX editor/User Actions" i have registered the new
action and i have assigned my new class to the action. In
"Window/Preferences/LPEX editor/User Key Actions" i have assigned
the key "CTRL-1" to the new action.

The problem is, when i open the LPEX editor a message
"class xyz not found" appears in the LPEX editor status line, where "xyz"
is the class i have registered at
"Window/Preferences/LPEX editor/User Actions". As i said, in WDSC 6.0
it works, but not in WDSC 7.0. When i install the plug-in via an
update-site in WDSC 7.0 it will be automaticly installed in the directory
"..\IBM\SDP70\plugins" and not in the directory

""..IBM\SDP70Shared\plugins",

where all other plugins - eclipse, ibm ... - are located. I suppose, that
this is a classpath problem, but i havn`t found a solution to make it

work.

Thanks
