Does anybody know where to download older Versions of the Eclipse
Plugin?
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.5 always points to the current
version. Is there an archive where I can find earlier versions?

Cheers,

Chris

Hi Chris,

You're correct; the update site always points to only the latest version of the plugin.  However, we do have zip distributions of some older versions available as well, although I don't believe this is documented anywhere.  Here are the URL's for plugin versions back to 1.1.0:


Note that these URL's are active right now, but we can't guarantee they won't disappear at some point in the future.  Also, zip distributions come with a few caveats, which you can learn about from this page in our help docs:


Finally, I want to point out that the latest version of the plugin (1.2.0) should be backwards compatible with older versions of the GWT SDK, at least back to 1.6.  Is there a particular reason you're looking for older versions of the plugin itself?

Keith

Hi Keith,

Thank you very much for the links. I will try them first thing
tomorrow morning.

I was interested in the previous versions of the plugin because I want
to maintain a consistent development environment throughout the entire
developer group. This morning I installed a new developer machine and
only the new plugin was available. Since everybody else in the project
still uses the Version 1.1.2 of the plugin I wanted to make sure that
the new computer runs the exact same software as everybody else.

Thanks a lot for your help,

Chris

Hi Keith,

Can you also provide the same for 3.4 version of eclipse, or are they
not supported anymore?

Thanks,
-Sandra
