This page describes steps to get started with DTP 0.7 and the 0.9 streams. We assume that you have installed the appropriate version of the Eclipse platform, EMF and GEF as described on the [http://www.eclipse.org/datatools/downloads.html DTP download] page for your specific DTP build.

Select '''File > New > Other... > Plug-in Development
+
> Update Site Project'''. Open the Update Site Editor
+
and add the features you want to publish. A site can contain
+
multiple categories of features, and we added one for this
+
example. After adding a feature, it has to be explicitly
+
published (Figure 4.6).
+
 
+
 
+
 
+
Click '''Build All''' to build all features and plug-ins
+
recursively required for this update site. The result is
+
an update site that is ready to be used in your Navigator (Figure 4.7).

You can simply drag the contents of the Hello World Update Site project to an
+
file transfer protocol (FTP) client to publish at a Web site. Alternatively, you can even test out the
+
update site directly by selecting '''Help &gt; Software Updates &gt; Find and Install...
+
&gt; Search for new features to install &gt; Add Local Site...''' and finding
+
the workspace project on your local file system.
