ibator Eclipse plugin

["Leucht, Axel" <Ax...@prodv.de>]

I'm trying to install the ibator Eclipse plugin.

But I don't like the idea to "pollute" the Eclipse folder with all ny required plugins. Instead all my plugins are stored external ina seperate folder and I do have a links folder within Eclipse with files "linking" the required plugin. This works fine and let me switch to new plugins quite easily without having to delete all files needed by a plugin.

This doesn't work with ibator, though. I downloaded the plugin from the ibatis website, copied all the files into a separate ibator-folder and wrote a link-file to also load the plugin for my Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede).

Does anyone know why it is not working or how can it be accomplisged what I'm trying to do?

I got it to work, but it was strange.  I had to unJar the files in the
feature into a directory like this:

..\eclipse\features\org.apache.ibatis.abator_1.1.0

The three plugins can remain jarred in ..\eclipse\plugins

I followed the error messages shown in the error log to figure this out.

When I rebuild the plugin for 3.4, it will have the new structure.
