User can put a link file in eclipse dropins folder, so that it is easy to share plugins between different copies of eclipse, like I am using CDT and WTP. Here is an example link file:
create a file /d4/ux/j2ee/eclipse/dropins/sqlexplorer.link with the following contents:
path=/d4/bin/eclipse/sqlexplorer_plugin-3.6.1
Note: on Windows you also need to use "/" instead of "/".
most people believe above folder should contain child folders so that it has the following on file system:
/d4/bin/eclipse/sqlexplorer_plugin-3.6.1/eclipse
/d4/bin/eclipse/sqlexplorer_plugin-3.6.1/eclipse/features
/d4/bin/eclipse/sqlexplorer_plugin-3.6.1/eclipse/plugins
Actually it is not mandatory to create folder sqlexplorer_plugin-3.6.1/eclipse. The folder on my file system is:
onega@ub-laptop:/d4/bin/eclipse/sqlexplorer_plugin-3.6.1$ ls
change_log.txt features plugins
This is convenient since many plugins does not contain "eclipse" as root folder in their zip package.
本文介绍了一种在不同Eclipse实例间轻松共享插件的方法,即通过在dropins文件夹中放置链接文件。这种方法避免了重复安装同一插件的需求,并提供了一个具体的例子来展示如何配置链接文件。
