How do I install Eclipse Marketplace in Eclipse Classic?

I'm running Eclipse 3.6.1 Classic, which does not come with the Eclipse Marketplace plugin by default. I've looked around the Eclipse website, but I don't see an available plugin for installing Eclipse Marketplace. Am I just not seeing it?


Help → Install new Software → Switch to the Kepler Repository → General Purpose Tools → Marketplace Client

If you use Eclipse Luna SR 1, the released Marketplace contains a bug; you have to install it from the Marketplace update site. This is fixed again in Luna SR 2.

Marketplace update site:

  • Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/luna
  • Helios - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios
  • Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno
  • Mars - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars

The steps below are for Eclipse Indigo Classic Version.

  1. Help->Install New Software...
  2. Point to Eclipse Indigo Site, If not available add the site "Indigo - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo"
  3. Work with the above site
  4. Look at "General Purpose Tools"->Marketplace Client
  5. After installing, restart Eclipse and you can find Marketplace in "Help->Eclipse Marketplace..."

  1. Help->Install New Software...
  2. Point to Eclipse Juno Site, If not available add the site "Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno"

  3. Select and expand general purpose tools

  4. Select and install Marketplace client

With Eclipse 3.7 Indigo, I found the link at http://www.eclipse.org/mpc/ which told me the download location and plugin was http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/indigo/ Which made the "Eclipse Marketplace Client" available in my Software updates after I added that address as a repository. Didn't seem to be in the core list on a fresh install.


help=>install new software=>workwith choice Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno and search in the below "type filter text" --------------market

you will see this plugs Marketplace Client
