Installing Nexaweb Studio Plugin

These instructions were tested with MyEclipse 2013 and oXygen14.1.  They ought to work with other versions of Eclipse and new versions of oXygen; however, Nexaweb has not tested them.

  1. Install Eclipse 2013. As mentioned above, Nexaweb tested with MyEclipse 2013.  We selected “No Add-ons.”
  2. Install subclipse v1.6 (using the Help/Install from site option).  Source: http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x
  3. Install oxygen 16.1:
    1. Download and open the oXygen Plugin archive, com.oxygenxml.nexaweb.editor_16.1.0-nexaweb.zip, from the Studio/Plugin section of https://nexaweb.jira.com/wiki/display/DevCenter/Download
    2. Under the root installation directory for MyEclipse, create a directory called “ThirdParty”
    3. Under the newly created ThirdParty directory, create an “oXygen16.1” directory
    4. Extract the “Eclipse” folder from com.oxygenxml.nexaweb.editor_16.1.0-nexaweb.zip into the oxygen16.1 directory  
    5. Create a text file called “oXygen16.1.link” in the dropins directory under the MyEclipse root installation directory.  The contents of this text file should be one line: path=ThirdParty/oXygen16.1
    6. Restart MyEclipse.
    7. If Oxygen was installed successful, you should see “oXygen” listed when you click on Windows/Preferences in MyEclipse
  4. Install Nexaweb Studio 6.1 into MyEclipse by doing the following:
    1. Download the Studio .zip file from the Studio/Plugin section of https://nexaweb.jira.com/wiki/display/DevCenter/Download, storing it somewhere accessible on your machine
    2. Select Help/Install from site from the Eclipse menus
    3. Click “Add”
    4. Click “Archive”
    5. Find and select the zip file downloaded in step 1.  Click “Open”
    6. Click OK and then follow the prompts including restarting when prompted
    7. If Studio is installed correctly, there will be a “Nexaweb Documentation” option under the Help menu, as well as a Nexaweb option under File/New/Other.
