Unable to install on Eclipse 2024-12/09/06

[prrvchr]

Hi,

If you try to install the LOEclipse plugin under Eclipse for Java Developer then the installation will remain blocked at the window asking to trust the sources (ie: the button allowing to advance being deactivated).

From what I have tried this happens with Eclipse versions 2024-12, 2024-09 and 2024-06.

Fortunately, there is a workaround, you go to:

Windows -> Preferences -> Install/Update -> Trust -> Authorities -> Add

and you add the url: https://eclipse-plugins.libreoffice.org

Then you will be able to install the LOEclipse plugin.

Oh thx for the heads up.
Would you documenting that?
The website source is in the docs folder.

@smehrbrodt I think something is missing in the plugin declaration files since apparently there are several sources to trust but it is impossible to open the main source and therefore check the sources it contains.

I see that others have already encountered this problem:

LOEclipse plugin fails to install on Eclipse > 2023-03

It would be good if it could be installed easily...

Declaring a plugin using a site.xml file seems to be outdated.

If I understand correctly, it seems that P2 must be used as a replacement to declare an eclipse plugin?
