How do I enable the column selection mode in Eclipse?
News wrote that Eclipse 3.5 finally supports column selection. Unfortunately I don't know HOW to enable it. I tried pressing the ALT-key like I am used to in Visual Studio and all other Microsoft products but that had no effect. How can I mark a vertical block in Eclipse? ...
A new version of Eclipse just came out. Is there anything I can do to avoid having to manually hunt down my plugins again?
Galileo came out the other day, and even though plugins under Eclipse are, IMO, just a little bit easier to deal with than Netbeans, it would still be really awesome if there was a simple way for me to upgrade to the new version (and take my plugins with me). Any tips? ...
Eclipse 3.5 is generating a "method not applicable for the arguments" error for no reason at all.
The error is this: The method add(String, int) in the type DataNode is not applicable for the arguments (String, String) However, in the DataNode class, I have a number of overloaded add() methods, including one that takes a String and an int and one that takes two Strings. It appears that Eclipse isn't "seeing" the right add() met...

Run Junit-Tests from several projects conveniently fast in Eclipse
Is there a way to run JUnit-Tests from several projects conveniently fast in Eclipse? The JUnit-Runner lets you define a package or a folder where from all contained tests are executed. Is there a way to do this with tests from several projects inside Eclipse? Preferably it should be via the Junit-Runner. If there is some way to have ...
Eclipse 3.5 Copy & Paste Problem
Hello again :) I recently updated my Eclipse to the latest release 3.5 and since then I have a very annoying problem with c&p using the shortcuts. In an editor (xml, jsp, doesnt matter which one) I try to copy something and paste it somewhere else, nothing happens. When I cut out something and put it somewhere else I sometimes get some...
How to get Scala plugin and AJDT to be installed in same Eclipse
I get an error when trying to install both AJDT and Scala 2.7.5 plugin into Eclipse 3.5. I remember seeing a message at one point that there was a known problem with the two being installed, and the solution was to install a pre-release version of Scala plugin, from May I believe, then install AJDT. But, I don't remember which version ...

Starting up tomcat-6.0.20 from eclipse-3.5.0 (galileo) leads to the 404 error
Hi. Console dogs me. Can anybody help? The sad story starts like this. My OS is ubuntu-9.04. I installed tomcat-6.0.20 by extracting it from .tar.gz package and put it under the /usr/share/tomcat-6.020 directory. Then I started tomcat from console, and everything seemed to be fine. localhost answered with the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROO...

Is there a good Perl project plugin for Eclipse Galileo or NetBeans 6.7?
I tried to use Perl Editor and IDE for Eclipse, but I get failures on installation, and I haven't found anything for NetBeans other than a syntax highlighter (no way to execute or debug Perl from within the IDE and no way to make a Perl project). The error that I get when installing the Perl Editor and IDE for Eclipse is: An error occu...
Turn off FreeMarker validation in Eclipse 3.5
I'm using Eclipse 3.5 with the FreeMarker template plugin, and it's showing me a syntax validation problem that I don't care to see. How do I turn this validation off, or possibly downgrade this template error to a warning? In previous versions of Eclipse, I'd probably look under Window -> Preferences -> Validation, but I don't see tha...
Eclipse 3.5 Unable to install plugins
Hi, I really don't know what's going on with Eclipse 3.5 (3.5.0 or 3.5.1, same issues), but it's been now 2 days that I'm struggling with Eclipse to find a way to make the plugins installation work via the "Install New Software screen"!!! I have visited a lot of forums and blogs, tried many solutions but in vain: each time the current p...
How to create EJB 2.1 beans in Eclipse 3.5
I am not able to create EJB 2.1 beans using a wizard in the latest version of Eclipse. I only see options to create EJB 3.0 beans. I selected 2.1 as the 'EJB Module Version' while creating the "EJB Project". But now when I want to create a session bean, I don't see any option to create a 2.1 bean. Is there a plugin/setting I need to en...
How to run with old version of Junit 4 in Eclipse (Galileo)
We need to run unit tests with an older version of JUnit4 (for arcane reasons). Eclipse has a choice between Junit3 and Junit4, but there is no way to add/change the Junit4 version. A temporary work around was to copy the junit plugin from Eclipse Ganymede, but this gets clobbered when Galileo updates itself. It looks as far as the up...
Can Eclipse 3.5 discover all bundles in the plugins dir?
Simple usecase: assemble an Eclipse product using simple scripts, just dumping bundles into the plugins dir. This used to work with 3.3 - with 3.5 it's broken: my application doesn't start as the app plugin is not found. Question: what's the easiest way to fix that? This seems to be the only pain in the whole upgrade process for me. ...
Eclipse rename not working completely
Ok I'm completely googled-out. I have a few java projects in my eclipse workspace (about 25). Most projects use linked source folders. When I rename a class in Project1, the references to that class in the other projects are not updated. The references within the project are updated just fine. The net result is compilation errors...
Why do errors no longer appear in Eclipse's package explorer?
My project used to be fine - errors showed up in the file margin, the editor breadcrumb, the problems view and in the package explorer tree as little red X marks. Somewhat spontaneously though, it's stopped working properly. If I introduce an error into my code, it shows up in the file margin, and nowhere else. It takes a 'project clea...
