'Expression Evaluator' Plug-In not working during uninstall
I downloaded the plug-in 'Expression Evaluator', but it seems it doesn't work when used in the uninstall phase (whether Pre-Uninstall, or Post-Uninstall). Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, is there a work around? (in my uninstaller, I am simply trying to decrement a variable that is being stored in a file). Thanks!

If you look at the source provided with the download, you'll see that the install method is implemented but that the uninstall method is not; depending on how you're using the action, perhaps recompile with code in the latter method, too?

Thanks Robert. Just days ago I had someone look at the Java code and make changes similar to what you suggested, and it works okay now. Sorry I forgot to post an update here on the message board.
Have a great day, and thanks very much for your feedback!

Just remember that if you do implement the uninstall() method, then everytime you use the plugin, and run the uninstall, that method will be called.
