   2. Let the list load and enter "market" in the filter box to find it fast, otherwise navigate to "General Purpose Tools" and "Marketplace Client".
      Check the box next to it, click Next and finish the installation steps until your Eclipse-based IDE is restarted.
      
3. Start the Eclipse Marketplace and either:
   • Drag and drop this installation link to the Marketplace window:

Known issues

Although there are no known issues with the plugin itself, there is a potential issue with Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) when installing from a secure (HTTPS) connection.

Handling fatal alert: handshake_failure when installing

Due to export restrictions, some Oracle JRE/JDK cannot be shipped with support for the encryption used by many web certificates.
To solve this, download and install Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Policy (see README.TXT in the .zip, in practice copy two files to a specific directory).

• Download for Java 7
• Download for Java 8

Using older Eclipse versions

For older Eclipse IDEs (Luna and earlier), it is often not possible to install from https.
Instead, use our non-secure install site for now.
