How to build/release this plugin

[gauthier-fox]

Hello,
I'm new to creating plugins for the Eclipse IDE. I've modified this one a bit (in particular to work with Azure api) but I don't know how to export it as a .jar or .zip file.
I tried with the submenu Export >> Deployable plugins and fragments but the .zip generated cannot be installed.

Can anyone show me a procedure for generating an installable plugin?
Thanks

i am also looking to create eclipse project and do a local build of this plugin, please let me know as well, the plugin has lot of dependencies of jar files and adding them one by one seems daunting task

@gradusnikov Greetings! Thank you for your wonderful and useful plugin! My question is pretty much the same as these guys in the discussion. Could you please make it clear for us on how to export this plugin as an archive properly so that it can be dropped into the IDE on another device. Would be grateful to receive your response and thank you in advance

Not sure if this will be of any assistance. I wanted to use the plugin for C++ code instead of Java. I found the prompt files in the path /home/andrew/eclipse/cpp-2024-09/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/666/0/.cp/prompts. I'm not sure if the 666 is unique to AssistAI or was just the number assigned when the plugin was installed on my system. You can't change the name of the prompt file. If the original file name is missing, it is recreated when the plugin loads.
