Re: Proper way to install a vendor plug-in in RDI 7.5

No problem. It looks like Ganymede changed things. Here's a blog post from someone who's already run into this:

The reason I am asking, which I should have made clearer, is that the
'Manage Configuration' sub menu item is not there any more in 7.5. Also
I now know I probably should have posted this to the plug-in mailing list.

Thanks

This is the proper way to do it in Eclipse. It enables the user to keep control over their Eclipse installation and install plugins separately from the core Eclipse install.

What is the proper way to install a vendor plug-in to RDI 7.5?
Previously, on the Help menu, there was a 'Manage Configuration' sub
menu under 'Software Updates' . Then I would select 'Add an Extension
Location'. I found a link to 'Manage Configuration' in the Help so I
guess you can still use it, but maybe there is another way.

Thanks
