Installation instructions are available in the Plug-in Installation Guide.


Release Announcement:

ProvideX Plug-in for Eclipse v1.7.4.p02
March 1, 2010


Sage Software Canada Ltd. is pleased to announce Version 1.7.4.p02 of the ProvideX Plug-in for Eclipse.

This is a maintenance release of the ProvideX Plug-in for Eclipse. It includes more flexibility for assigning the line number increment used when building programs and adds the project-specific properties 'NOMADS_AltDictDir' and 'StripLeadingWhiteSpace'.

Additional information about the available features of the plug-in can be found in the documentation (Help Contents | ProvideX Developer User Guide) that is included with the plug-in.

This version of the ProvideX Plug-in for Eclipse was built using Java 1.5.0_15.


Note:
This plug-in includes tools that are designed to modify source code; e.g., the Style Check Utility. Every precaution has been taken to ensure that they work as expected; however, please be careful and verify any large-scale changes made to your source code when using these tools.



For Linux users, using earlier versions of ProvideX the 7.50 version of the xterm device driver can be downloaded by clicking here.



Alternate Installation of Plug-in

Occasionally the update site does not work or cannot be accessed from within Eclipse. This is usually caused by a firewall or security restriction on your local network. As an alternative, the plug-in can be installed using a more manual approach:

  • Download the plug-in installation file [ProvideXPlugin.zip]
  • Create a "New Archived Site" that points to this file.
  • Perform install/update of Plug-in using this new site.

Note: The Alternate Installation File will include the current release and and possibly the Beta release, if one is available.
