I’m not quite sure why there isn’t a NEON version for the eclipse plugin’s yet, but in an effort to answer a question on stackoverflow i decided to see if there were possibilities to recompile the plugin-project for NEON.<\/p>\n

It turned out that the reason the plugin doesn’t work for neon is due to a typo in the plugin’s manifest. Here’s what i posted on stackoverflow<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Steps to get it to work with Eclipse neon:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Download the 203 version of the plugin;<\/li>\n
  2. In eclipse: file->new->”Plug-in from Existing JAR-Archives”<\/li>\n
  3. Choose to include (into the plugin) the .jar file you’ve just downloaded<\/li>\n
  4. For the newly created project, fill in the blanks \/ choose the defaults<\/li>\n
  5. Replace the contents of the generated MANIFEST.MF with the contents of the jar’s original MANIFEST.MF<\/li>\n
  6. Notice that one of the dependencies\/version cannot be resolved (org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core) remove it, then add choose add to include the current version<\/li>\n
  7. Export the project as “Deployable plug-ins and fragments” to a folder<\/li>\n
  8. The folder contains your updated .jar file that goes into your eclipse\/plugins directory<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/blockquote>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The resulting plugin can be found here<\/a>,(tested on NEON 1, reported not to work on NEON 3) . Alternatively i have one for Oxygen here<\/a> (tested on Oxygen 2) as well.Just place it in your eclipse\/plugins folder, and you’re all set!<\/p>\n

    Note that i’m not quite sure if i’m allowed to redistribute this software, but i couldn’t find any license information anywhere. Besides, no code was added\/modified and the original plugin was distributed freely into the open:). Maybe IBM could share this code on their github?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
