Default Extension Point in Eclipse 3.4 vs. 3.3.1 - 03-18-2009, 08:49 PM

A plugin I wrote under Eclipse 3.3 does not work in 3.4 - it looks like the plugin is not activated. I did update MANIFEST.MF to include the following:

Bundle-ActivationPolicy: lazy
Eclipse-LazyStart: true

But it doesn't work whether the old or new lines are present. My plugin overrides editor hover behavior. I specify the extension point org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaEditorTextHovers in plugin.xml. That looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.4"?>
<plugin>

<extension point="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaEditorTextHovers">
<hover
id="myEditorHover"
class="sonif.myEditorHover"
label="lewisCustomHover"
description="A custom hover handler."
activate="true" >
</hover>
</extension>

</plugin>

Any ideas why my plugin is not activated?

Thanks -- Lewis
