How to install a plugin on xl-release? - plugins

I have downloaded CA-LISA plugin from https://xebialabs.com/plugins/ and have received both .zip and .jar files. I am now stuck at installing the plugin. What are the steps to install the plugins manually ?

To install simply place the plugin in the < XL_RELEASE >/plugins directory, then restart XL Release. You will then have the ability to create the appropriate tasks. Please let me know if this helps, or if you need any further assistance.

How to update eclipse via zip and keep plugins and configurations

I want to update my eclipse installation, but keeping my plugins and configurations. Is it possible doing it just replacing the files downloaded with the zip file?
I'm looking to correct some errors and improve performance.
Thanks in advance.
This is not possible, but you can
directly update your existing Eclipse IDE or
install the plug-ins from the old installation into the new installation: File > Import: Install > From Existing Installation
I managed to upgrade it, just using the eclipse installer and installing on the current folder, now I'm testing the new installation to verify if everything is ok.

Looking for eclipse plugin "cppcheclipse"

I've been desperately looking for a download of the eclipse plugin cppcheclipse v1.0. Sadly the repo at http://cppcheclipse.eclipselabs.org.codespot.com/svn/update has been down for at least a week now...
Could someone help me out?
Thanks
I got it to work by downloading v0.9.9 from the old website and doing a manual install:

Install Eclipse plugin from outside Marketplace

My Eclipse Marketplace/Install New Software links are not working. Is there any other way to install a plugin in Eclipse? Can you please tell me where I can download a plugin independently and install in Eclipse manually?
Thanks in advance!
You can install a plugin from an archive.
In install new software
Click on Add
Under Location Click Archive
Another simpler way: Some plugins have an Install button on the Marketplace website (e.g. this) which you can simply drag & drop to Eclipse.
If you just have a plugin rather than an install package (also known as an update site) then copy the plugin to the dropins folder in the Eclipse install and restart Eclipse.

How to install eclipse color theme plugin without eclipse itself

I use eclipse at work. Our internet is limited so I can't download plugins through eclipse itself. Anybody know a way I can download it at home, then install it from a flash drive or something of that nature? All I can find is info on the github and I have no idea how to use that. Still a noob
Thanks in advance
This should work.
Download the github zip file from here
The dropins directory should be used to install a plugin manually. The typical process is that you download a plugin and extract that archive to the dropins directory.
The plugins directory on the other hand is reserved for Eclipse's updater. You should not mess with it manually. Eclipse will store all plugins you install using "Help"->"Software Updates" or "Help"->"Install new software" (depending on your Eclipse version).
Please, let me know if this works for you.
