Great tutorial, i'm trying to set my environment up to develop a sametime plugin for the version 8.0.2
After i install the lotus expeditor in my eclipse 3.2.2 i got an error caused by the org.eclipse.jdt.launching.j9 plugin
"VM process is closed, but output stream is not ready. Using default"
Moreover, if i try to run the samples, i got another error after validating the plugins
"Plug-in com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.click2install will be disabled"
"required plug-in com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.webapp is missing"
what can i do to solve this problem? any clue? =S
