I have an Eclipse RCP project that's targeted to Eclipse 3.4. Now that 3.5 is out and I'm using it, and while I don't have any reason to change my plugin to target the 3.5 platform, I'm left wondering how exactly is one supposed to do it. I can't seem to find any option which lets me change a plugin's target platform after it's been cre...
We are using CVS for around 50 java-projects which we develop using Eclipse, and build using Hudson. We have now reached the point where we want to migrate to something better, and I am considering that using git masquerading as a CVS server might be exactly what would suit us in terms of learning curve. We have few but long-lived bran...
I want to add a breakpoint in a class in Eclipse, but I don't have the source code for it. Is it possible to add a breakpoint in it anyway? In my case I really only need to know when a method is called. (As a side note: does anyone have the source code for j2ee_api_1_3.jar?) ...
In other words, when you type for and hit ctrl+space, you can pick various template for loops. After selecting, it creates the code and lets you tab between various aspects of the code (such as which array you're looping over). I've switched to dark colors on Eclipse, but I can't find anywhere to change the highlight for these tab areas,...
When I try to debug a blackberry application in eclipse by selecting Debug As/Blackberry Simulator the simulator is never launched. The taskbar at the bottom says 'Launching DebugServer: (19%)'. It never gets past 19%. When I select Run As/Blackberry Simulator it works as expected. Any ideas? ...
If you have a common eclipse/osgi code platform on which you build various products can you/should you inherit activators from the common code E.g. org.test.common.PluginActivator org.test.common.ui.UIPluginActivator org.test.product1.Product1PluginActivator org.test.product1.ui.Product1UIPluginActivator org.test.product2.Product2Plu...
My main development environment on my Windows machine uses Eclipse and I'm quite happy with it. I sync all my projects into SVN and want to be able to work on projects at coffee shops without lugging my real laptop around. Problem is that my netbook is pretty low scale - it's one of the first EEE pcs and right now it is supposedly "overc...
Why can't I reference the type parameter of a generic parent class inside of contained local classes? public class IsGeneric<T> { public void doSomething(T arg) { class A { T x; } A foo = new A(); foo.x = arg; T bar = foo.x; // error: found java.lang.Object, required T } } ...
I am now moving to eclipse for my python development. I have pydev installed but it is showing grammar support up to python version 3.0. My question is can I use python 3.1 with 3.0 grammar? Has the grammar changed from version 3.0 to 3.1? I am using eclipse 3.4.2 and pydev 1.4.7 ...
I'm trying to create a simple plugin in eclipse. When I run the application, i saw this error in log file.. org.osgi.framework.BundleException : The activator for bundle org.x.y.Activator for bundle org.x.y is invalid. Do you have any idea about this error? ...
When you type in a word to search in Eclipse Help or any other application using Eclipse help, you get a message (in the place where help contents are usually displayed) about indexing (it is usually hard to see, because it happens very fast): something like "Indexing..." (or "Not found" after search is over and nothing is found). Is the...
I like Eclipse's build path features, but would like to keep it in sync with my ant build.xml. Is there a way to either automatically import the Eclipse build path from a text file, or export the Eclipse build path to a text file, so I can use that file from ant? (if I can get to a text file, I know I can figure out how to get ant to use...
I'm looking for a way to automate deployment of a Flex application(written in Eclipse) EAR to the JBoss application server. That is, when I click 'Build' I want it to also do the deployment. It doesn't have to be a 'hot' deployment, since this is development I don't care about shutting down and restarting the application. ...
I am about to start on a college project (a web application) and I have never used a full-fledged IDE such as Eclipse. Turbo C/C++, Visual Basic 6,Java Basic, a bit of SQL, ASP, etc is the sort of exposure I have. What things should I keep in mind before starting my project using Eclipse? Are the tools mentioned appropriate for the pro...
Hi folks! I recently found some problems when I tried to rename a package in a Java project with Eclipse. I use Subversive for SVN integration. If I rename a package via Refactor -> Rename, the commit fails. I have to rename it in a somewhat strange way: Create the new package as a new empty folder Select all classes to rename right...
Hi, Background: I'm working on multiple versions of a given project in eclipse. I want to be able to switch between different versions quickly as I fix bugs and prop-back changes to previous releases, so I have the different versions of the code open as different projects (e.g 4.5_Proj, 5.0_Proj). The problem is that when you have the ...
We use Eclipse with projects in CVS. It has proven to be the simplest to create a new workspace when having to deal with another branch or application, and then use Team -> Import project set to get all the needed projects from CVS. Unfortunately, I then have to do the following each and every time: Change text font to Consolas 11 pt...
I have an eclipse project where every source folder has its own associated output folder. Instead of /classes it's called /eclipse-classes. So if I have a folder: src/main/java (typical maven thing) the target folder is: target/eclipse-classes And likewise for resources etc. This seems to work (i.e. eclipse generates .class files tha...
I have a tool that converts an data file into a C header file for inclusion into my project. Now I would like to have this tool run automatically during make whenever the data file changes. Where can I tell Eclipse CDT which tool to run and what data file the header depends on? ...
After I do a positive lookahead in eclipse 3.5, I am unable to do any sort of replace! Specifically, I put in any text string to replace the found string, and the text string is unable to be replaced. My positive lookahead is at the end of the line so as to include the positive lookahead text in the next search. What's up? This is also ...
