Error when installing PDT on eclipse... need help.

Post by wvxvw »

Hi.
I'm trying to install PDT plugin on eclipse. I've been through the manual on PDT FAQ page, but, evidentaly it addresses some other version of Eclipse =(
Anyway, when I try to run
Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install.
it finds the required plugin, starts the installation and fails at extracting downloaded file =(
The error message sais "the file isn't valid .jar file".
I'm new to Eclipse and never used it with this plugin, so any information on both of them considering the problem will be greatly apprecated.

Huh... OK, seems like it didn't really needed those files... but... now I'm having a bunch of other problems with the plugin. Like, I'm not able to create *.class files =\ Anyway, I believe I'll have a lot more of them, so, if anyone knows of any resource that has some documentation / manuals dealing with PDT it would be great... right for now I couldn't find any =(

I found it easier to just d/l and use the pdt all-in-one download. Eclipse updating is a royal pita anyway.
