These are generic instructions for installing JBoss-IDE/AOP either through the eclipse update manager, or the zip files distributed on sourceforge.net

Standalone Installation (no dependencies)

-

Installation via the Update Site (recommended)

• Select Help > Software Updates > Find and Install in the Eclipse workbench.

• In the wizard that opens, click on the "Search for new features to install" radio button, and click Next.

• On the next page you will need to add a new update site for JBossIDE. Click the "New Remote Site.." button.

• Type in "JBossIDE" for the name, and "http://jboss.sourceforge.net/jbosside/updates" for the URL, and click OK.

• You should see a new site in the list now called JBossIDE. click the "+" sign next to it to show the platforms available.

• Check the "JBoss-IDE AOP Standalone" checkbox.

• In the feature list you should check the "JBoss-IDE AOP Standalone 1.0" checkbox.

• At this point you should only need to accept the license agreement(s) and wait for the install process to finish.

Installation via zip files (sourceforge)

Extract the contents of the jbosside-aop-xxx-standalone.zip file into your eclipse root folder (on my system, this is C:\Apps\eclipse).

If Eclipse is running when you extracted the zip file, make sure to restart Eclipse so it recognizes the plugin.
