Installing Subclipse

Installing Subclipse will basically follow the same process we used during the CFEclipse installation. However, the download URL, as well as the installation options will differ slightly.

Again, go to Help > Software Updates > Find and Install...

Select “Search for new features to install” and click Next.

Uncheck any existing site to search, and click the “New Remote Site” location. Again, choose an identifying name, and the URL of the Subclipse donwload site.

For Eclipse version 3.2 and greater, the download URL should be:

http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.2.x

(Note the 'x' in the URL is a literal value, not a variable. In other words, leave as-is and do not substitute with your actual version number.)

With the new site added, ensure that it's checked in the “Sites to include in search” dialog, and hit Finish.

Within the Search Results dialog, choose the “Subclipse” and “Subclipse Plugin” items. However, uncheck the optional “Integrations” item and all sub-items.

Hit Next, and accept any agreements.

Finally, accept any license agreements, and hit Finish. Ignore any “Unsigned Feature” verification warnings by hit the “Install All” button.

Restart Eclipse when prompted to do so.
