install into generic Eclipse via update site #87

Open ponyatov opened 7 years ago

ponyatov commented 7 years ago

Is any job in progress to make neoclipse to be ordinary plugin can be instaled into modern generic Eclipse installation using update site (or eclipse marketplace) ?

I intensively use Eclipse with CDT and PyDev, and downloading specific build only for neo4j manipulations is tedious.

PS: is current master branch able to work with modern neo4j-community-3.2.3 ? I see issue on problem with new4j-3x

Hi @ponyatov unfortunately, currently, no one works on / focusses on neoclipse.

In the past @CrystalMethod started to upgrade it to current Eclipse versions while cleaning up the UI, visualization etc. But I'm not sure how far he got.

Most people today either work with Neo4j Browser / Cypher-Shell directly or use the Jetbrains GraphDatabases plugin. If you have a generic SQL plugin for Eclipse you could also use the JDBC driver for all Cypher operations, but then without the visualization.

Sorry to have no better news for you but if you'd be interested we'd be happy to support you with feedback.
