Plugin does not appear in eclipse

[Matthias Eichner]

Hi Matt,

I installed the plugin with the zip file (like you described in "how to
install the plugin") and the installation was successfull. After restarting
eclipse i try to use the plugin but its nowhere. Eclipse says it is installed
but it doesnt appear in preferences, no json view and no "open with" editor.

I use Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Build id: 20090621-0832

Thank you in advance,
Matthias

Hi Matthias,

That seems a bit strange. Have you looked in the eclipse log file for any
error messages?

Cheers,
Matt.

After reinstalling eclipse your plugin works :).

Hi,

I have the same effect on both an Eclipse CDT/Cygwin and QNX/Momentics
installation: No trace of the Json editor. I don't really want to re-install
any of them, because it would take some time to configure them the way I need
them. Do you have any clue why re-installation fixed the problem?

TIA,
Christoph
