		<description>i tested wtp eclipse plugins is ok, but not work for the googleAppEngine plugins.

it is not easy to find and download the standalone eclipse plugins, since it is more common to use an update site(e.g. egit plugins).

thank you for your sharing

		<description>I urgently need to get Java3D to work with Java 1.6 and Indigo in Windows 7. In the past with Vista and older Java, eclipse and Java 3D versions, I simply installed Java3D normally and it would work. Now however, this does not work. So, I tried putting in the new java 3d eclipse plugins. Copying the plugins and features into Indigo did not work. After deleting and setting up a new eclipse, I tried your links method using Notepad to make a file &quot;java3d.links&quot; with the line &quot;path=C:\\Java3dPlugin&quot; (also tried \ and /) indicating where I copied the unzipped download in an eclipse folder. Still no luck. Any ideas?</description>

		<description>Links are working very well for me.
I am developing PHP projects using:
Version: Helios Release  Build id: 20100617-1415 (Ubuntu)
I found trying to install SDK or PDE plugins into the above environment was proving (for me) impossible. (Missing connectors, incompatible versions, and all sorts of other errors).
I have now downloaded eclipse-SDK-3.6.2-linux-gtk-x86_64 to develop plug-ins, and then I&#039;m using links to plug them in to my PHP development environment.  Works great !
By the way, I inadvertently failed to name a link file with the &#039;.link&#039; extension, and linking still works with a link file named &#039;Unsaved Document 1&#039; !!</description>

		<description>Anyone try this approach with m2eclipse? I&#039;ve downloaded the m2e and the m2e-extras plugin manually (since it&#039;s not available as a zip). Fairly certain its the right structure but I can&#039;t get it to work

Here&#039;s a link (40MB) to the files.

		<description>Hello sir,

Thanks for the article. Very informative one.

Actually I&#039;m working on Developing Mashups on Google App Engine. For that I need to install PyDev, a python development plugin for eclipse. But I did not get that. So I downloaded Pyeclipse. But I&#039;m not understanding whether it should be installed as a link as you explained in this article or in some other way. Because that it does not have folders like features and plugins.  Could you please help me out in clarifying my doubt?

Thanks,
Spurthi T.</description>

Did you get any solution for your problem. I have a similar requirement, and I am a newbie to Eclipse plugins, and I did not find a proper solution yet. Your help would be much appreciated.

		<description>That&#039;s very useful indeed. I always do the hard way when I need to move my installation to a new or other computer. 
Although sometimes I prefer the convenience of the update manager, I&#039;ve been, like you (and many others), left several times with partial installations, which are a pain in the arse to get it clean again.
Using the \links\ provides for a much better way to compartimentalize the plugins from Eclipse itself, and if it fails, you just unzip again the contents, or easily remove the link-file to get rid of undesirable plugins.

Thanks !</description>

		<description>This feature seems to be superseded by the &#039;dropins&#039; folder in recent versions of eclipse (p2 provisioning system). Allegedly the &#039;links&#039; folder mechanism is still supported but I haven&#039;t had much success with putting a .link file in either &#039;links&#039; or &#039;dropins&#039; in Helios.

Interesting documentation on this feature: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Getting_Started</description>

		<description>hey, 
It worked for me on eclipse 3.1. I think its the simplest way to manage plug ins.Thx for this idea.
But, what is the best way to confirm whether that plug in is now available in eclipse? Is it listed under plugins ?</description>

		<description>Is this supposed to work for RCP products you&#039;ve created, or only for Eclipse IDE?
I have a product definition, and exported, for which I want to have the normal plugins folder for plug-ins that I&#039;ve shipped with the product. And then also a link to a folder where the user can add own plug-ins. Any ideas if this should work? Or why I can&#039;t get it to work? (with extensions .lnk/.link using &#039;/&#039; and backslah, or double slash / backslash...)</description>

		<description>I am new to eclipse. I find this approach very useful.
I am able to add CDT, RDT to Eclipse Java EE IDE.  So it’s really turning true IDE for all my development needs :)
Thanks for such useful post.</description>

		<description>Hi,
I was having issues with ClickIDE plugin with Eclipse3.4. Initially I had it working (by manually extracting the files) but later I deleted the plugin as it was throwing some exception. Later when I re tried, it (clickIDE plugin) does not even gets loaded. Not sure what when wrong. I have installed Aptna plugins between &#039;deleting&#039; and retrying the installation.

After reading this post, I tried but of little use. Said plugin still does not gets loaded. Someone please help. Is there any log file generated while starting Eclipse, which tells which plugins got loaded and which had problem loading.

Thanks
