Trying to install MercurialEclipse, but only get offered CodeBeamer


I tried to follow the instructions here:

How can I install the MercurialEclipse Plugin?

But instead of being suggested the Mercurial plugin, I'm only offered something called 'CodeBeamer' in the avaialble software dialog. What gives?

(I'm using Eclipse Luna.)


Solution

  • Since a few years back, Eclipse has a feature called Eclipse Marketplace, which means that you don't have to bother with update sites. I usually use this feature when downloading plugins.

    Select Help -> Eclipse Marketplace in the menu, and search for Mercurial:

    Eclipse Marketplace

    Click the install button for Mercurial Eclipse, tick the checkbox, and click Confirm.
