Last week the Eclipse Foundation released a new version of Eclipse, called Helios. The Sigasi team was prepared for this release, and included the necessary changes in last month's release.

You can install Sigasi's VHDL plugin the same way you installed it in the previous version of Eclipse (Galileo), but there is now also a simpler way where you do not have to type the whole plugin installation URL (http://download.sigasi.com/updates/hdt), through the Eclipse Marketplace client.

Installation with the Eclipse Marketplace client is really easy:

1. Download, unzip and start Eclipse Helios.
2. Click Help > Eclipse Marketplace…
3. Select Eclipse Marketplace and click Next >
   
4. Type Sigasi in the searchbox and click Go
   
5. Sigasi HDT will appear. Click the install button.
6. The following steps are pretty self-explaining (and identical to the regular install instructions)
7. Don't forget to increase the heap size for Eclipse!

Vote for us on the Eclipse Marketplace

If you like our plugin, please take some time to vote for us on the Eclipse Marketplace. This will make it easier for other VHDL designers to find us. In order to vote, you need a Eclipse Bugzilla account first. To create such an account, all you need is a legitimate email address: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/createaccount.cgi

Thanks,
Hendrik.
