Description cezariusz 2011-11-04 13:12:26 UTC

[ BUILD # : 201110310600 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.24 ]

Writting XSD files by hand is not an easy task. Visual editor would make it
easier and usually much faster. I've been using such editor in WID and RAD, and
it's really helpful.

No XML tools

So why they don't appear on the available plugins list?

Comment 3 cezariusz 2011-11-04 13:36:36 UTC

Changed the title.

Comment 4 Svata Dedic 2011-11-04 13:41:11 UTC

Because this is 'archived feature', not part of the main distribution and testing efforts: 

You may add an additional AU center (url: http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/xml/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/build/updates/updates.xml) or install the plugin directly by downloading from its homepage.
