<h3><a name="intro"></a>Introduction</h3>
<p>A new Eclipse plugin for JiBX is now available. You can install the plugin by
making use of Eclipse's Software Updates handling, with the update site url
<a href="http://jibx.sourceforge.net/eclipse/">http://jibx.sourceforge.net/eclipse/</a>.
If you want a detailed walk-through of how to configure Eclipse to use this site,
see the <a href="%eclipseinstall%">Install</a> page.</p>
<p>Once you've installed the plugin, you can activate it for any of your Eclipse
projects using the project context menu, and for each project specify a folder
containing the binding definitions used by that project. The plugin will parse
all XML files contained in your
specified mappings folder to identify which Java classes require bindings, and
will automatically run the JiBX binding compiler whenever it detects a change
that might effect the bindings or bound classes. For a detailed walk-through of
how to activate the plugin for a project, and details of when and how it runs the
binding compiler, see the <a href="%eclipseusage%">Usage</a> page.</p>
</div>
<div class="h3">
<h3><a name="version"></a>JiBX version</h3>
<p>The plugin is currently distributed in versions that align with a specific
release of JiBX. Upon adding the update site to Eclipse, either JiBX 1.1.6a, 1.2.1,
or 1.2.2 will available: choose one (but not more) of these to install. If you want
to change to a different version of JiBX (including some older versions, though this
has not been thoroughly tested), first locate the plugin jar named
<i>org.jibx.eclipse_x.x.x.jar</i> within the <i>plugins</i> folder of your Eclipse
installation. You can open this jar with a tool which supports zip file formats (or
expand it to a full directory structure using the <i>jar</i> tool included in the Java JDK)
and replace the <i>jibx-bind.jar</i> and <i>jibx-run.jar</i> files within the <i>lib</i>
directory of the jar with those for your target JiBX version. Then just save the
modified <i>org.jibx.eclipse_x.x.x.jar</i> and restart Eclipse.</p>
