PlugIn Development Issue
Please help me with PlugIn development I have followed the below mentioned steps
- First create and configure the Plugin to your needs as described above.
- Then open Eclipse with any workspace and select File then Import... from the menu.
- In the import dialog select Existing Projects into Workspace and navigate to the base folder of your plugin. The currently configured base folder for plugin development is shown in the client preferences of the dynaTrace Client, the default folder name for a Plugin is the plugin name.
- Select your project, then finish.
but after importing project in Eclipse I'm getting error "The import com.dynatrace cannot be resolved".As I'm not getting "com.dynatrace.diagnostics.pdk" in my project
I have Collector and Agent on Local system where I'm Trying to develop PlugIn.As I have Provided Server IP and Agent Name in "Window"- "Preference" under Launcher for server connection.
Please Suggest.
Hi
FYI - I moved this post into the APM Forum under Plugins and Extensions as it fits better in this forum category
To answer your question. Please check the following doc page: Best Practices and Examples - it contains a section that explains how to setup and configure Eclipse for dynaTrace Plugin Development

I have followed the steps given in that Documents in that after importing project in Eclipse I'm not getting package "com.dynatrace.diagnostics.pdk"
in my demo Project.
Please suggest

Hi Amol
Seems you have also posted on the dynaTrace 3.5 doc pages and already got some additional input from the responsible engineer.
Please use this discussion thread for any additional questions you have. Seems that one of additional steps you had to do was to set the Target Platform in your Eclipse Workbench to your dynaTrace Installation\Server\plugins or Collector\plugins directory.
That should do the trick

HI Andreas,
Thanks for your quick reply,That issue is resolved.Now I'm getting missing packages but I'm facing new issue now I'm not able to
compile my code using "Run with Dynatrace Agent" option,But same code get compiled as simple java code.
Please suggest.
Please find the screenshot for error details.error.png
Hi Amol
I think you may confuse two things here
1. Developing a dynaTrace Plugin, e.g: Monitor, Task or Action
2. Launching a JAva Application from Eclipse with automatic dynaTrace Agent injected
In your case I think you want to develop a plugin. You therefore would not want to choose "Run with dynaTrace Agent". You want to execute the plugin in the dynaTrace Client just as explained in the documentation.
In the dynaTrace Plugin Tab you can click on Build and Test to run your code as a dynaTrace Plugin
