    I think in that case the PDE (plugin development environment) is missing, Window Maker probably depends on this for its SWT/JFace part.

    You could try adding the full PDE package from the eclipse software site directly. In Eclipse go to:
    Help – Install new software – Work with: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios

    After a long update, a “General Purpose” node should appear in the list. After expanding the node, you should see “Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment”. Try installing this first and then Window Maker Pro.

    Alternatively, you can always use Yoxos – http://ondemand.yoxos.com/geteclipse/start – to fully customise your Eclipse installation.
