Installing the reporting plug-in

You install the reporting plug-in by using Update Manager in your Eclipse workbench.

Before you begin

The reporting plug-in is provided with the WSRR Studio application. If, therefore, you have installed WSRR Studio, you do not have to install the reporting plug-in separately. If, however, you want to add the reporting plug-in to your own installed version of Eclipse, and you do not want to use the additional configuration profile management and UML modeling features provided by WSRR Studio, then follow the instructions on this page.

The archive file is called WSRR_Reporting_ArchiveSite.zip, located in the root directory of the location to which you installed the WSRR software.

Note: From WSRR 7.5 onwards, the reporting plug-in is supported only with Eclipse 3.6.1 and later versions. If you want to use an earlier version of Eclipse, install the reporting plugin from an earlier version of WSRR.

About this task

To install the reporting plug-in, follow the same steps as for installing the Eclipse user interface plug-in, as described in Installing the Eclipse user interface, but using the reporting plug-in archive file.

What to do next

See the topics under Creating reports for guidance on using the reporting plug-in after you have installed it.
