As an aside, this DOM directive is really misleading: it is not the real URL of a plug-in. It is composed in fact of 2 things:

DOM: <update site url>/<plug-in id>

In the case of http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dash/update/org.eclipse.eclipsemonkey.lang.javascript, that means that Eclipse Monkey will connect to the update site http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dash/update/ and asks the user to choose among the features listed by the update site (in the site.xml file) the one which contains the org.eclipse.eclipsemonkey.lang.javascript plug-in (in that case, the org.eclipse.eclipsemonkey feature).

since the time I wrote this script, the DOM URL has changed. In your script, I replaced:

* DOM: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dash/update/org.eclipse.dash.doms

by

* DOM: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dash/update/org.eclipse.eclipsemonkey.lang.javascript

and it worked as expected.

I ran across your site while digging around for monkey scripts. I downloaded the plugins from the update site, but when I run the sample, it throws the error “The script test.em requires this missing DOM plugin: org.eclipse.dash.doms”

I’ve scoured the internet and I can’t find this anywhere. I know this is off-topic, but I thought you may know. Here’s the script I’m running,

Thanks in advance,

Jon
