Hi, Unfortunately, due to the way in which we deliver the SDKs, choosing the "Update" option will not bring down new SDKs. They are considered to be new features.
To properly update the Google Plugin for Eclipse and its associated SDKs, navigate to Help --> Install New Software. Choose Google's update site for Eclipse 3.5, and you should see the new SDKs listed, along with the newest version of the plugin. Select all of the available software, and go through the normal installation process. We've got an open bug addressing the problem that you speak of; the update notification's instructions are incorrect. This issue will be fixed in GPE 1.3 (a preview release is available). Let me know if you run into any other problems. Rajeev On Fri, Mar 5, 2010 at 10:48 AM, bakki <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am running Eclipse 3.5.2 on Mac OS 10.6.2.
