'FRC Elements' folder missing from Wind River

[danielcg25]

I'm watching the workshop videos on YouTube, and the third video says to go to File>New>Other in Wind River, which opens a window with a bunch of folders in it. He opens the folder "FRC Elements" and selects "Subsystem" inside that folder.

My problem is; that folder is missing for me. How do I get it to show up?

Did you install the c++ update?

I'm pretty sure I did; there is a FIRST menu up on top of the screen.

Those were provided by a second set of plugins which were created last year but not distributed with the main WPILib update. I haven't seen any documentation for them this year, so I assume they've been considered deprecated in favor of RobotBuilder to manage the subsystems and commands. The plugins haven't been updated with the new RobotBuilder templates, so they may not work properly this year.

If you still want to try, switch to the "Advanced Device Development" perspective, then go to Help->Install New Software. Add http://first.wpi.edu/FRC/c/eclipse/update/ as an update site, and install the plugins that show.
