What is the proper way to install Hibernate Tools in Eclipse as a plugin? The Hibernate site doesn't really give any instructions.
Looking at the Hibernate Tools binary HibernateTools-3.2.4.Beta1-R200810311334.zip, it appears that I can just unzip this in my eclipse directory. Do I just unzip it in my eclipse directory? This seems like a hacky was to install it.
Well, most convenient and safest way is to use JBoss update site within Eclipse software updates (Help -> Software Updates... -> Add Site...):
The latest stable release update site for JBoss Tools
There you can find Hibernate tools together with other handy JBoss plugins.
