ProjectViewer Plugin not available
Submitted by devashanti_om3 on Wednesday, 15 July, 2009 - 16:49
I just installed jEdit v 4.2 Final on a new machine. I have used jEdit for many years and I always install the ProjectViewer plugin, but it is not available in Plugin Manager for this version when I download the Plugins. I located it on a separate website and downloaded it but am not sure how to install it as I always used the jEdit Plugin manager in the past. I installed other plugins through jEdit's Plugin Manager and the option to have them installed to the jEdit settings directory was selected, but I cannot find the jEdit settings directory in the C:\Program Files\jEdit main directory anywhere. Can someone help me understand how to install ProjectViewer and why it is no longer included in the Plugin available through jEdit's Plugin Manager?

Indeed, for jEdit 4.2 the ProjectViewer plugin isn't available via Plugin Manager anymore. I'm not sure whether or not this is intended.

But You can install every plugin manually by copying the jar file into the \jars subdirectory in one of two directories:
a, jEdit Home directory (i.e. C:\Program Files\jEdit\jars)
b, jEdit settings directory (i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\username\.jedit\jars)

In the latter case the plugin is ony available for the specified user, else for all users. Some plugins depend on other plugins. So, maybe You get error messages at next jedit startup. Then You should install the missed plugins, too.

It's also worth to try the latest development version jEdit 4.3pre17.
