[Dltk-dev] how to install DLTK Ruby on Eclipse for Mac

[Marc Limotte <mslimotte@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to use DLTK Ruby for syntax highlighting and completion and so on of my Ruby code.  But I'm having trouble installing it.

I downloaded the release version from here:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dltk/downloads/drops/R1.0/R-1.0-200906171219/

Also, based on the Dependencies listed on that page, I upgraded to Eclipse 3.5 (for Mac OS/X) and also downloaded EMF 2.5 (although it appeared to already be a part of Eclipse 3.5).  My Eclipse 3.5 install seems to work (not sure if there is some way to verify EMF).

I didn't see any install instructions for DLTK, so I just copied the contents of the "features" and "plugins" folders to my Eclipse features and plugins directories and restarted Eclipse.


I don't see any DLTK Ruby capabilities in Eclipse, though.  In particular, I was looking for a Perspective or a some Ruby options in the Eclipse Preferences.  Nothing at all.  No errors that I can see.  If I look in the installed software, I do see several DLTK entries, though.

Is there some other install procedure I should follow? 

Thanks for any help.
