I downloaded eclipse and installed the BlackBerry plugin for eclipse.
Now when I start eclipse:
Missing Visual C++ 2008 Runtime redistributable package not found. The reguired package can be installed from: MS VS2008 Redistributable Package.
I download/install/(also restart PC) it from the given url, but the warning is still shown when I start eclipse.
