Just a reminder that when you install CFBuilder as a plugin either to Eclipse or Flex Builder or Flash Builder, you're installing CFBuilder to its own directory and inside the full install of Eclipse or Flex Builder or Flash Builder installation, there's a folder called 'dropins' and inside that, is a single file called "CFBuilder.link". If you need to re-install Eclipse or Flex Builder or Flash Builder, you don't need to re-install CFBuilder, you could just preserve that file and then drop it in place when you've got your new Eclipse / Whatever Builder re-installed.

So, if you're the type that likes to have the nightly build of Eclipse running at all times, you can, just copy/paste CFBuilder.link around and put it in the dropins folder and you're done. I believe the .link file is nothing more than a pointer to the real CFBuilder folder.

Excellent timing! I have been thinking of reinstalling/upgrading Eclipse and have been putting it off due to the hassle of reinstalling CFBuilder.

On my box it points to: path=C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe ColdFusion Builder 2 Plugins
