I would like to present a case to our stakeholders of why I would want to use Mylyn.

How can I display a byte array as a String in java's debug detail formatter?

I'd like to write a simple detail formatter that displays byte[] data in the form of a String (using String.<init>([B) to do the dirty work). However, I'm not sure how to find the class name for [B to use when creating the formatter. Is this even possible? Or, alternatively, is there another way to view byte arrays as strings in the d...

outputting the value of a "Watch" in Eclipse to a log file.

I have a piece of Java code I can't edit which I want to debug. The issue is that one of my 10,000 records has a data error and is causing the application to crash. I can remote debug the live application and add watch which would pick up the id of the record as each is processed. The problem is when the "bad record" is processed and t...

Several ways to ask this question: How can I get eclipse to use my ssh-config? How can I get eclipse to use /usr/bin/ssh instead of the internal implementation?

Eclipse + PDT performance tips?

I recently wanted to get a decend IDE for my PHP side-projecs, and by searching SO found Eclipse+PDT. Although it's not quite at the level of Visual Studio yet, it's pretty nice and better than Notepad++ for this purpose. I can even debug somewhat, although it's pretty glitchy. But there is one thing that is bugging me. It seems to have...

ParameterizedTest with a name in Eclipse Testrunner

When you run a JUnit 4 ParameterizedTest with the eclipse testrunner, the graphical representation is rather dumb: for each test you have a node called [0], [1], etc. Is it possible give the tests [0], [1] etc. explicit names? Implementing a toString method for the tests does not seem to help. (This is a follow-up question to JUnit test...

Velocity editor plugin for Eclipse?

I've seen Veloedit, which seems to have good syntax highlighting but doesn't allow tab characters in the file being edited (wtf?) and also has no understanding of HTML. With a little bit of googling I've found Veloecipse, which claims to build upon Veloedit and also add HTML support - but doesn't seem to be compatible with Eclipse 3.4. ...

Fast eclipse mode for PHP

Does anybody know of a fast PHP mode for eclipse? I have tried the Aptana PHP mode, and PDT, but neither can place a character in under a second, which is no way to write code.

Packages in Eclipse/CDT

Is it possible in Eclipse to have some kind of packages (sets of projects) when using CDT projects? We have separated our software in such packages and use VS2005 with .sln files for the Windows parts. At the moment I see only two ways to manage the projects in Eclipse: Put all together into a single workspace and loose the package or...

Run GWT shell normal, use -noserver on compile?

I would like to run the GWT shell (the nice little Google pop-up browser window) when "testing" and upon clicking the actual "Compile/Browse" on the tool, compile the program into a different directory and use the -noserver mode to test it on my IIS server. Problem: I have not edited the normal shell script, so it fires off just fine. ...

How to install JScience library in Eclipse?

Or just any library, in general? I downloaded the bin.zip file, but I can't seem to do much with it? This is driving me up the wall... EDIT: In other words, there is no "standard" way to do it? I know how to add the Jar files, is it ok to just put them (and the docs) anywhere? ...
