RE: New Plug-in Available for WDSC/RSE

Correct, you can do that if you already have the spooled file plug-in.

The instructions for the Messages plugin now have you download a zip file 
instead of the technique the spooled file plugin used.  This is because we 
ran into a lot of people that had Proxy/Firewalls that did not work with 
the Install/Update manager.  But if that worked for you with the spooled 
file plugin, it will also work for the messages plugin.

Also, as with the spooled file plugin you have to either create a new RSE 
connection, or delete/recreate your existing one for the new "susbsystem" 
to appear.  IBM has fixed/enhanced this in RSE, but it will not be 
available until a future refresh of WDSC.

PS - If you didn't already do so, you might still want to go through the 
process on our web site so that you can get the PDF with the documentation 
for the plug-in and how to set it up.

Unzip?  I just downloaded it directly from the Softlanding plugin update
site address.  Eclipse grabbed it, I restarted the workbench, and 
recreated
my connections.  I actually installed both of your plugins at the same 
time.
Total time was less than 5 minutes.

For others ... 

Rick's problem appears to have to do with the step where you unzip the 
plugin to your hard drive.  The zip fie contains a directory structure 
that has to be maintained when you unzip it.  After it is unzipped, you 
should have a structure somethine like this on your hard drive.


C:\iSeriesMessages
 |  site.xml
 |--- features
         com.softlanding.messages_1.0.2.jar
 |--- plugins
         com.softlanding.messages_1.0.2.jar

Mark,

When I try to download this plug-in WDSc Update Manager tells me that 
'This feature reference cannot be resolved.'  I've tries it two or three 
times with the same result. 

Any suggestions?

Rick
