Problem installing ArcSDE engine plugin for Eclipse

Question

I'm looking for the following jars for the ArcSDE API:

• jsde_sdk.jar
• jpe_sdk.jar
• concurrent.jar
• icu4_3_2.jar

thanks to this answer I've found that they can be gotten installing the ArcSDE engine plugin for Eclipse.

But on ESRI's help page it calls for the following directory:

%ARCGISHOME%/java/tools/eclipse_plugin/arcgis_update_site/engine

My installation, instead, only has the following one:

%ARCGISHOME%/java/tools/eclipse_plugin/arcgis_update_site/arcobjects

That is, the arc Objects plugin, instead of the engine plugin.

Where (or how) can I get the ArcSDE engine plugin for Ecplipse?

Answer 1

It would seem that you need to install ArcGIS Engine first. Once you've done so, you can continue with installing the Eclipse plugin.
