I developed an Eclipse plugin (a view) using the plugin development version of Eclipse. I exported the plugin as a jar archive and now I would like import it in another version of Eclipse, but it doesn’t recognize the plugin.
This is my first plugin so I might have forgotten something obvious. I searched the internet for hours but didn’t find anything. Does anybody know what else I have to do?
Btw, the dependencies of my plugin are:
org.eclipse.ui,
org.eclipse.core.runtime,
org.eclipse.core.filesystem,
edu.tum.cs.eclipse.commons,
org.eclipse.ui.ide,
org.eclipse.core.resources
The version I’d like to import it in is the default Eclipse for PHP Developers from eclipse.org. The feature list can be found on http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-php-developers/galileosr2
Thanks for you help!
10 minutes after asking the question, I solved the problem…
Setting up an update site as suggested here at this SO question provided the proper errors and I could set up the plugin.
