This plugin is used to generate the MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, or SHA-512 hashes of one or more files in an Eclipse project. After installing this plugin, you’ll have a new option on your right-click menu called Hasher. Select a hash algorithm, and voilĂ , you have your hash. See the screenshots for more info:
- Hasher console output
- Hasher right-click menu

This didn’t work for me in eclipse 3.4.2 M20090211-1700 …
Installed via Help -> Software Updates…
Plugin installed with no error…
Rightclicking now on a file in Package Manager or Navigator, the menu “Hasher” does not show up.
Hm, I’m not sure why it’s not showing up. The only thing I can think of is that you don’t have Java 6. Please make sure you have the latest version of Java. I have the same version of Eclipse with Java 6 update 14, and it installs and shows up just fine.
I just tested this with Eclipse 3.5, and it works perfectly.
