[opencms-dev] RE: Eclipse Plugin

[Scott Carlson]

A jar file is just a glorified zip. Contained within the plugin jar is a
lib directory, which contains OpenCMS jars. Just replace all those with
the latest OpenCMS versions.

I am happy to send the "fixed" plugin jar (which also supports MSSQL) if
you just send a request to me: scott at optionvue dot com

Also, if you have attempted to use the plugin before, you need to start
eclipse the first time after putting in the new jar using the "clean"
option: i.e. eclipse -clean

Could you go into more detail about how one would go about upgrading the
jars? I'm not really sure what you mean by OpenCms jars because the only
jar
I see is "org.laughingpanda.opencmsvfs_0.0.3" and that is the lastest
version.
I am using MySQL so I don't think the database is the problem.

Your help is appreciated.
