Does not work in MyEclipse 3.3.2

I just installed Classpath helper in my eclipse plugin directory and restarted eclipse but there is no Classpath Helper available in "Window=>Show view=>Other..." dialog. I tried to enter "Classp" in the filter in the dialog and then it displays nothing at all.
The following directories are located in the eclipse\plugins directory:
classpathhelper.eclipse.ui.source_1.2.7
classpathhelper.eclipse.jdt.listener.source_1.2.7
classpathhelper.eclipse.tomcat.listener.ui.source_1.2.7
classpathhelper.eclipse.ui.source_1.2.7
classpathhelper.tomcat.listener.source_1.2.7

Classpathhelper ships relative to the eclipse root (i.e. it contains the plugins directory in the archive). From your description is it possible you unpacked it in the plugins directory and now have a plugins/plugins subdirectory?

Hi Bryant,
I did unzip the file to eclipses root dir, but I only listed the classpathhelper plugin directories I could see in the eclipse\plugins directory. There are of course a lot of other (working) plugins in the same directory.
I am using MyEclipse from Genuitec so it is not the "original" distribution from eclipse.org, but I have updated and added features from the eclipse.org distros and they work just fine.

Well the obvious thing to do is download the latest copy of the Eclipse distribution. If you cannot see the plugins in standard Eclipse then we know its an environmental issue (where it was unzipped or something else). If it works then the question is what version of Eclipse is the MyEclipse distribution based on.
I know in the 3.2 (Eclipse) timeframe they changed some extension points that broke Classpath Helper, so I had to make changes which no longer allow it to run with earlier versions of Eclipse.
Also, if Classpath Helper works with standard Eclipse an area to check is the log. The log is located relative to your workspace directory...
${workspace}/.metadata/.log (although in looking at my Linux version of Eclipse I don't see it here).

Re casting as a feature request as support for MyEclipse is not explicitly stated.
