Datasource Explorer is missing in Eclipse Kepler

Question

I have recently downloaded Eclipse Kepler. In this Kepler version, The DataSource Explorer is missing. DataSource Explorer can be used to connect to various databases. The Database Development perspective is missing in Kepler version.Do I need to install any separate plugin for that? If so, which plugin?

Answer 1

The data source explorer is part of Eclipse DTP (Data Tools Platform).

You can install it from 'Help > Install New Software'. Choose the main Kepler repository in 'work with' and look in the Database Development section.

Answer 2

I'm using Spring Tool Suite (based on eclipse) I was able to get the Data Source Explorer by going to Help > Eclipse Marketplace and then typing Database tool suite. The option Eclipse DTP comes up and then you can install it and restart.

Answer 3

安装Eclipse DataTools Platform 。

Answer 4

In Eclipse (Mars) Goto Help > Install New Software'. Choose the main Mars - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars repository in 'work with' and look in the Database Development . select this and sub directories and install.
