Upgrading the Eclipse Plugin

  1. Uninstall the Oxygen plugin (see Uninstall procedure).
  2. Follow the Installation instructions.
  3. Restart the Eclipse platform.
  4. Start the Oxygen plugin to ensure that the application can start and that your license is recognized by the upgrade installation.
  5. If you are upgrading to a major version, for example from 11.2 to 12.0, and you did not purchase a Maintenance Pack that covers the new major version (12.0) you will need to enter a new license for version 12 into the registration dialog that is shown when the plugin is started.
  6. Go to menu Window > Preferences > Plug-In Development > Target Platform
  7. The com.oxygenxml.editor com.oxygenxml.author list entry contains the version number of the installed plugin. If the previous version was 11.2.0 the list entry should now contain 12.0.0.
