I think I many have found the problem...the following isnt in the plugin.xml file from the jar:
Code:
<plugin id="org.eclipse.cdt.mcc18.toolchain" name="Microchip C18 Compiler Toolsuite Managed Make Extension" version="1.0.1" provider-name="Benjamin Cherian (Team 254)">
- <runtime>
- <library name="toolchain.jar">
<export name="*" />
</library>
</runtime>
- <requires>
<import plugin="org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.core" />
</requires>
