XQueryEclipse Plugin Installation

Follow these instructions to install XQueryEclipse plugin into your Eclipse IDE

This plugin installs just like any other eclipse plugin. If you are already familiar with the update manager then all you need to know is http://xqueryeclipse.sourceforge.net/update/

1. Make sure you have the mininum requirements
   • an installed version of Eclipse 3.4 Ganymede
2. Install the xqueryeclipse plugin
   • Help Menu --> Software Updates
   • You should see wizard titled "Software Updates and Addons"
   • Make sure the "Available Software" tab is selected
   • choose the "Add Site" button
   • enter the following URL in the Location field
     • http://xqueryeclipse.sourceforge.net/update/
   • click "Ok" to add the site
   • Now select the checkbox next to the site you have just added "xqueryeclipse-site metadata/"
   • hit the "Install" button on the top right of the software updates dialog
3. Try it out - there's a little 'Q' in the toolbar that runs xquery files and a right-click on an xquery file in the Project Explorer will have a menu item "XQuery" with an option to run the xquery. I'll upload screenshots and documentation on playing with some simple xquery samples as soon as i can.
