"Installing the Google Plugin for Eclipse from a local update archive" has no sdk #227

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

1. I'm installing the GPE using  
https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-from-zip

2. I have downloaded the 
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/core/4.3/zips/gpe-e43-latest-updatesite.zip

3. I try to install it using the "Install New Software..." menu

There is no SDK in this archive. This is not equivalent to installing the gpe 
with the update site.
You should probably mention another step in this installation description or 
complete the archive file.

I use Eclipse Kepler on Win7.

This is only for information, not really a problem for me.

Thanks for submitting this issue.

We intentionally put only the core GPE in the archived update site, to keep the 
archive small.

However, you are correct that the documentation needs to be clarified. Step 6.a 
in the instructions for using the zip archive 
(https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-from-zip) misleadingly 
suggest that the archive includes the GWT and GAE SDKs. We will fix that.
