JBoss-Tools and Eclipse 3.6.1

created by vvenkata in JBoss Tools - View the full discussion

I am trying to install JBoSS-Tool plugins for Eclipse JEE Helios 3.6.1 and I am not able to do it as per the instructions given in the

https://www.jboss.org/tools/download/installation/update_3_2.html#fromzip

 

 

here is what i have tried so far.

 

I am runing FC6 on my desktop.

 

I have eclipse installed at ~/jboss/eclipse directory.

As per the instructions, I downloaded the zip files from JBoSS-Tools. I unzipped them in ~/jboss. So I have plugins and features directory in the parent directory where eclipse is installed. Now when I stop eclipse and restart eclipse with the -clean option, I don't see the plugins.

 

So I tried to leave the zip files as such in ~/jboss/jboss_plugins directory and then tried to add them through the "Install new software" option in Help menu. When I try to specify the location of the directory in the archive file, it seems to select the individual zip file and doesn't let me add the plugins.

 

Can anyone help me. Is there a incompatibility between the eclipse helios version and the version of jboss-tools that i have downloaded?

 

Thanks,

V.V.chalam
