Thanks! But in my configuration of Eclipse there are not plug-in development functionality, how to add it to installed Eclipse?

If you're just creating OSGi bundles you should just be able to use a regular installation of eclipse -- create a plug-in project. If you plan on using RCP when creating the plugins you'll want to install "General Purpose Tools" -> "Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment" and "Eclipse RCP Plug-in Developer Resources" from the update site. You can do so by going to Help -> Install New Software and selecting the Eclipse helios site from the dropdown box, then filtering by RCP.

What kind of eclipse did you download? It should be under "File" -> "New" -> "Other" -> "Plugin Project"

I didn't download, it was before me. In menu "File" -> "New" -> "Project" -> there are only "General", "CVS", "Java", "SVN", "Examples"
