Just having a plugin installed (as you've done in step 2 above) does NOT
automatically make it available to projects in the workspace. You'll
need to add A.jar to Project B's build path. The easiest way to do that
is to use the Add Variable... button on the build path edit tab, and
then select the ECLIPSE_HOME variable, Extend..., and select A.jar
Hope this helps,
Eric
