If I install Eclipse from the snap store what
happens to extensions such as PyDev etc.
- if they are downloaded/installed via Eclipse
are they installed like a snap or within
the eclipse snap directory?
- are they isolated by the eclipse snap sandbox?
- something else?
Eclipse is snapped as “classic”, so there is no real confinement. Plugins are installed into ~/snap/eclipse/current
since https://github.com/snapcrafters/eclipse/pull/9 (2020-03 has this merged).
So plugins are not shared between snapped Eclipse and traditional install, but will be kept installed when Eclipse snap is updated.
