Starting with Eclipse RCP - Where's the darn plugin project?
I wanted to start learning Eclipse RCP (Rich Client Platform) and was following a tutorial here, but I was already stuck on the first step (getting started). Friend google made me find this, and this.
Basically, I didn't install the RCP plugin and to quote from those two links:
Lots of people report that if they try this they can only select a
"Generic" entry. The common source of this problem seems to be that
you did not download the package "Eclipse for RCP/Plug-in
Developers". Please see
Eclipse Installation
.
You might have to click on "More Packages" to see the RCP
download package.
On the webpage of eclipse (www.eclipse.org), click on DOWNLOADS.
Download the package "Eclipse for RCP/Plug-in Developers".
I'll be posting more about RCP once I finish setting up my IDE. :)
