Andreas, I don't think it would work with 2.x in its present form. And "optional=true" in plugin.xml is not the cause, I think.
It needs org.eclipse.ui.ide plugin, which in turn needs "org.eclipse.core.compatibility" plugin which in turn needs another plugin and so on. And I am using the plugins that I got from the zip file downloaded from ur website. If u have any other thoughts pls let me know.

The problem here is, that I'm using a "optional="true"" command in the plugin.xml to get the Eclipse 2.x and 3.0 compatibility done. But I think, this is only supported in 2.1.x upwards. Could you please go to the MerlinDeveloperUI package, open the plugin.xml and delete the line with the "optional="true"". Please also have a look at workspace/.metadata/.log. There should be a message, pointing to the problem. Tomorrow I will upload some doc enhancements, which will show how to launch the container. Thanks for your help! Andreas > > Please advice.
