Re: [ptp-dev] Question about procedure to fix a PTP problem

[Dave Wootton <dwootton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm having trouble getting this to work. I made a change to a class in 
org.eclipse.ptp.rm.ibm.pe.ui then exported the project into my plugins 
directory and restarted Eclipse. After Eclipse restarts, it still loads 
the old jar file. I verified this by looking at the plugin details list 
and seeing the jar file with the old timestamp in the list. If I start 
Eclipse with the -clean flag that doesn't make any difference. I looked in 
the .log file in my workspace and I see that the -clean flag is passed in, 
but I don't see any  messages related to this jar file. If I rename the 
old jar files so the only one available is the one I just exprted, it 
still doesn't get loaded. When I do that, I get errors when I open the run 
configuration dialog since it can't load the required classes.

This is on a Windows XP system if that makes any difference.

Is there something else I need to do to get this to work?
Dave

Dave,

Yes, export as "deployable plug-ins and fragments", choose the plugin 
you want, and under "options" check the "Package plugins as individual 
JAR archieves"  option (except if this is one of the C plugins like 
the proxy or utils). All other options should be unchecked. Then copy 
the jar file into you eclipse plugins directory and restart eclipse. 
It should pick up the new plugin automatically (you might need to do a 
-clean on linux).
