How do I solve a missing “org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui” when trying to install the ADT plugin for Eclipse?

I’m wanted to try my hand at building an application for Android and am trying to install the Eclipse and the required plugin. I’m getting an error complaining that Eclipse is missing “org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui”. Where do I get this from?


Funny that, I got caught by that one too. I found the answer right on Google:

The Google Plugin for Eclipse depends on other specific Eclipse components, such as WST. Your installation of Eclipse may not yet include all of them, but they can be easily installed by following these instructions.

Eclipse 3.6 (Helios)

  1. Select Help > Install New Software…
  2. Click the link for Available Software Sites.
  3. Ensure there is an update site named Helios. If this is not present, click Add… and enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios for the Location.
  4. Now go through the installation steps; Eclipse should download and install the plugin’s dependencies.

Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo)

  1. Select Help > Install New Software…
  2. Click the link for Available Software Sites.
  3. Ensure there is an update site named Galileo. If this is not present, click Add… and enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo for the Location.
  4. Now go through the installation steps; Eclipse should download and install the plugin’s dependencies.

Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede)

  1. Select Help > Software Updates…
  2. Select the Available Software tab.
  3. Click Manage Sites…
  4. Make sure the Ganymede Update Site is in your list of Available Software Sites, and checked. If it’s not in the list, click Add… to add it. The Ganymede Update Site’s URL is http://download.eclipse.org/releases/ganymede/
  5. Now go through the installation steps; Eclipse should download and install the plugin’s dependencies.

There you go, now you can write as many Android apps as you want and use the case to buy iphone 4 accessories 😉
