An Eclipse update site is a repository for features and plug-ins and it follows a standard format. The Notes® installer uses the update site directory zip file updatesite.zip, which contains a features subdirectory and plugins subdirectory, as well as a site.xml registry. The site.xml registry lists all features that are published from the update site.

For Notes install, Eclipse update site content must adhere to these conventions:

• All features must be packaged in JAR files (one per feature) and placed in the "features" subdirectory (updateSite.zip\features).
• All plug-ins must be packaged in JAR files (one per plug-in) and placed in the "plugins" subdirectory (updateSite.zip\plugins).
• Published feature IDs must reside in the site.xml registry (updateSite.zip\site.xml).
