You need to enable the plugins you want to build into KnowWE when using Eclipse. Here's how:
Open your Run Configuration for the KnowWE build by Hitting Run As... → Run Configurations... and add parameters for the plug-ins you want to have.
For instance: You want to enable the Comment plug-in. Here, you have to add a comment-plugin parameter. You can set it to an arbitrary value ('true' for instance).
See the screenshot on the right for another example.
