Man, this character encoding hole just keeps on getting deeper. Sigh. Ok. Check this out: I have a java String that contains the unicode character U+9996 (that's what I get if I do codePointAt()). If I look at it in the debugger expressions panel (in eclipse) then all is well and it looks like "首". However if I print it out to the conso...

Is there a (good) documentation about the format of the eclipse workspace files (.location, x.tree, ...)? I need this to programatically create a workspace for automated builds. Unfortunately I have to do this job from a .NET program, so I can't use any Eclipse classes to do this! (We manage our Linux C++ projects using Eclipse + CDT). ...
I have a J2EE project in Eclipse 3.2 and at the end of every build I want to automatically create and deploy a WAR file. At the moment I have to do this by hand which is 5 or 6 mouse-cliks and it would be nice to automate it. I know I can do this with a custom build script using ANT but I am hoping for an Eclipse native solution. I ha...
Following on from this question, I now want to know how to stop an ANT script from executing if the preceding build failed. I can't see a way in the Build setup in Eclipse of chaining builds together based on their success. I think I am lookikng for either a way to pass the previous build status into my ANT script so I can terminate ...
Hi I recently upgraded to Eclipse Ganymede from Europa and now I'm finding that when I'm editing JSP files the IDE crawls when editing HTML attributes (but not JSP attributes). Has anyone experienced this, or have any suggestions? Also if you can point me to a better place to ask Eclipse related questions, do tell. Thanks! ...
Hello Fellow Programmers, I am having problems running my Junit tests via Ant. I can't seem to get Ant to see the properties file it needs to load a dll my project needs. All my tests work using the Junit GUI in Elcipse, so I'm pretty sure it's not a problem with the tests themselves. I think my problem is something classpath-related...

I'm developing .jsp using eclipse and tomcat. My .jsp outputs html to pull in some javascript from a .js file. The jsp outputs the code which hooks up the function mapTool to the mousedown event. imfMapFunctions5101.js contains the mapTool(e) function. The changes I make to the .js file do not take affect when I run in firefox, alt...

I'm using Eclipse as an IDE for Ruby/Rails development (using Aptana plugin). I have one very, very large file that encompasses an initial data load of several thousand rows of data.

What is the proper way to install Hibernate Tools in Eclipse as a plugin? The Hibernate site doesn't really give any instructions. Looking at the Hibernate Tools binary HibernateTools-3.2.4.Beta1-R200810311334.zip, it appears that I can just unzip this in my eclipse directory. Do I just unzip it in my eclipse directory? This seems like ...
