The download
com.neusoft.ezingbuilder.update.site1.0.4_eclipse3.2.zip
doesn't contain a valid Eclipse 3.2 plugin. I found
these problems in plugin.xml:

1. The plugin information is missing (plugin id, class)
2. The runtime-element is missing
3. The requires-element is missing

And the plugin version says eclipse version="3.1" :-)

The effect: Neither the editor nor the preferences page
can be opened.

    Please using Help->Software Updates->Find and install... to
    install the plugin, and it need WTP.
    You can wtp-all-in-one-sdk-R-1.5.0-200606281455-win32.zip
    from eclipse.org

    I did that.

    I see the plugin in the list of installed plugins, I can see
    the wizard and there is an entry in the list in the prefs
    dialog.

    The problem is that when I select any of these, I get errors
    saying that the classes are not in the classpath. That's why
    I assume that Eclipse cannot find the JAR file.

    Looking into plugin.xml, I saw that you don't specify the
    JAR file in there (unlike any other plugin I've seen so far).

    Can you please try to download the Eclipse 3.2 archive from
    SourceForge any try it in your Eclipse installation? I'm
    sure it won't work for you either.

    Just to be sure: I'm using Eclipse 3.2 (official release) on
    Windows.

    I'm using the WTP packages from Callisto but they should be
    the same as in the download you mentioned.

    Interestingly enough, I installed eZingBuilder at home (on
    Linux) and there, it works.

    I'll verify my install at work (on Windows) to see if there
    are packages missing (the Update Manager tells me that I
    have installed everything, though :-/).

    I just stumbled over the problem: I'm still running
    Eclipse with Java 1.4 at work. It seems your plugin
    requires Java 1.5 but Eclipse doesn't complain about this;
    it simply says "ClassNotFound".

    I'll open a bug against Eclipse.

    Thanks a lot!

    To fix this problem, can you please set an execution
    environment for the plugin? Eclipse will then make sure that
    Java 1.5 is available before it tries to load the plugin.

    See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=150225#c1
    for some pointers.

    Thank you very much.
    We will do this in next version.
