I downloaded an Eclipse's extinction for Rust, but then, after creating a new Rust project, i got this problem
I tried to follow some instuctions that I was able to found, including some from this website. I deleted and then downloaded Rust on my computer, I deleted and downloaded Eclipse, same with VS C++ building tools, but all this didn't help. I saw, that for some people helps to just reenter current workspace, but it was not my case. Despite this problem, default code seems to run OK, but it is almost impossible to edit. If someone had this problem or just know how to solve it, can you help please?
P.S. My English probably is not very good, so sorry for mistakes.
This is a known issue. Update to the latest proper TM4E release from https://download.eclipse.org/tm4e/releases/latest/ so that you have the bundle version with this class present.
So basically I want to drive myself crazy while disciplining myself learning to program. I want to kick it old school and really understand what I'm doing. I don't want Eclipse to hold my hand and tell me that I have a syntax error or that I have any errors except for when I run my code and the console tells me something is wrong. I have searched and searched and searched online and I cannot find where you disable anything. I've been to the editor/compiler preferences and changed everything to ignore instead of warning, but eclipse is still holding my hand.
I'm using Eclipse Luna for Java. Any suggestions or help at all would be greatly appreciated!!!
The closest I think you'll get is to disable the automatic, incremental compilation (menu Project > Build Automatically). But that doesn't disable the Java editor's natural tendency to highlight obvious syntactical errors as you type.
To be honest, if you really want to avoid all of the guidance that an IDE like Eclipse gives you, you'd probably be better off using a "plain" text editor (possibly with simple syntax coloring), such as TextPad or Notepad++, along with command-line javac. But I don't think that will actually help you learn better; it certainly doesn't help with the exploratory/discovery part of learning.
I have had this problems for a couple of times but usually could solve it by an update. However, this fix does not work for me anymore.
Actually, two problems here:
The minor one: I have osX 10.8.3 and Eclipse Juno (M20130204-1200) installed. Since a good amount of time, it takes eclipse ~ 4-5 minutes to start up for the first time after the system start. Once it was closed and is re-opend again, it starts up quick. I think this problem came since apple started to mess around with the JRE? Does anybody also experienced this delay? Could it be that one of the installed plugins checks for updates and causes the delay?
The major one: after eclipse is fully up & running, I can not open .py files anymore. When I open my pydev project (btw. pydev 2.7.3), eclipse freezes and I need to kill the whole thing and restart. -> I can not use it for python coding anymore, which is my primary task...
Suggestions? Re-install eclipse maybe?
Thank you for suggestions,
El
Can't really comment on #1, but for #2, can you try attaching jvisualvm to see what's going on there? (and create a thread-dump and post it somewhere so that I can take a look at it).
I'd ask you to create a bug-report for that, but the new tracker is still not up (I hope I'm able to put it up right after the funding at http://igg.me/at/liclipse is finished).
The problem was resolved by following these steps. They essentially disable one
JRE.http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5559?viewlocale=en_US
Sorry if it appears as stupid question, but really I can not work anymore, and this is ... sad.
Eclipse continue to assign F to format code (Menu->Source->Format). I found a way to reset to default, but suddenly after switching to other window (browser) eclipse restore the key binding. I can go back anymore.
Is there a quick direction to follow to make it work as before? there is something that could cause this to happen? what? a key sequence? it worked until now, where do I look for a possible cause of such a weird behavior?
I do changed file /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so (s/Eclipse/Xclipse/) for ubuntu menu, could it had caused the problem?
The last question lead to a conclusion: yes it is related to main menu issue.
So disable it with
cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies
sudo sed -i 's/Xclipse/Eclipse/' libappmenu.so
I think discussion should be continued here:

Has anyone managed to get Vim integrated into Eclipse painlessly? I just want to use Vim for the editor while retaining the general Eclipse interface. I have tried using Eclim plugin but the editor seemed to crash more often than work (the site said that the editor replacement functionality is still beta).
On the flip side, is there any IDE which matches Eclipse's functionality—mainly the integration with SVN, ant, etc.—and is also able to use Vim?
I mostly use eclipse for SAS SCL, Java and Javascript programming and find the eclipse editor too "mouse-y".
I'd also like, in a perfect world, to use vimdiff as a diff viewer for SVN (we use TortoiseSVN) while checking for diffs or conflicts during merge etc. I admit I havent spent a lot of time trying to get these things to work. I feel guilty about spending too much time on potential wild-goose-chases while my other team members are working away at their code, perfectly content with all that Eclipse has to offer.
Edit: Just found this while desperately browsing around: Vim plugin. Any experience using this? From the claims on the site, it sounds perfect.
I've been using Vrapper for about 2 months and it works great. It is simple to install, and makes life much easier.
It doesn't integrate Vim with Eclipse, it just emulates Vim's behaviour so you don't need to have Vim installed.
EDIT:
I have been experiencing errors while refactoring methods in Eclipse (only when Vrapper was installed) so I stopped using it.
Now I'm using ViPlugin (very similar to vrapper). It works great (especially since version 2.0) and I recommend it, but it is not free (but cheap and has a trial version)
Edit
As the new post mentioned, if we always use the rename dialog to rename, it can be a work around for Varpper.
Preferences > Java > and uncheck "Rename in editor without dialog"
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/vrapper/ticket/96
The consensus seems summarized in that Wanted: VIM in Eclipse article.
No decent Vi plugin exists for eclipse, except viplugin which does not offer macro mechanisms.
Whereas on the NetBeans side... jvi does a killing job ;)
WOW, this is the one!
http://vrapper.sourceforge.net/home/
It just came out a few months ago, and seems much better than the other alternatives...and it is open source.
I use Viable, which is a new plugin for Eclipse providing Vi emulation. It is very similar to vrapper, but it doesn't have the same problem as vrapper with refactoring (as cysiek10 described.)
It's got some pretty cool features which none of the other Vim emulators in Eclipse seem to have (though jvi for NetBeans has a few of these) such as:
Visual block mode
External filters and commands
Command history
Window splits (love having this one!)
It is pay; however, you can try the full version for free just like viPlugin.
I never had much luck with vim integration into any IDE, be it Eclipse, Visual Studio, NetBeans, or sth else. Instead when stuck using an IDE, I just make the IDE launch a custom program: which passes the file onto vim using the client/server feature.
I.e. vim --servername SomeName --remote-{choice of how to open it: splits or tabs} {extra args like filename and +line#}
I just tried Eclim http://eclim.org/ and found it really good. I can still edit inside Vim, and enjoy most of the benefits of the eclipse IDE inside Vim (such as better omni completions).
The best thing about Eclim is we are still using the original Vim, so I can enjoy all the existing benefits (my own functions, macros, etc.) while having the extra convenience provided by an IDE.
http://vimplugin.org, which I found over the weekend was the closest I could come to a nice integration. Unfortunately when I opened more than 2 files in my IDE, it made my entire workstation unresponsive. And I didn't even use the "new process" option for the editor.
So bottom line it does seem that there is no decent integration available yet. Although with some it's close. I'm rooting for vimplugin to stabilize and I'll also some time (when I'm not eating up my employer's time like now) play some more with hte plugin to see if I can make it usable.
I tried Eclim and didn't like it at all. I ended using this plugin called "viPlugin," which actually works well enough to warrant using it every day. Here is the site for viPlugin:
http://www.viplugin.com
The big downside of this plugin is that it's not free. I paid for it, and I think it's worth it.
...is there any IDE which matches Eclipse's functionality -- mainly the integration with SVN, ant, etc. -- and is also able to use Vim?
IntelliJ IDEA has a very good VI plugin, but I didn't like it, although the plugin did it's work.
My problem was I have formed habits to use IDEA and those were harder and my experiment didn't it through. So I uninstall the plugin, and learned idea shortcuts instead.
But, is not free :(
Vrapper does the trick.
After installing Vrapper you need to remove CTRL+W key binding in Eclipse settings. Or else it keeps closing the editor when you actually meant Backspace.
It also comes with "surround" and split window plugins. Be sure to install those.
This is not 100% Vim, though. And nothing is 100% Vim except for Vim (doh!). You will find some commands missing (or you may not, depending on how "vimy" you are). But vrapper has :vim command, which opens up Vim editor with the current file in the buffer and places your cursor in the exact location in the file. This way you can continue editing from where you left off. When you're done in Vim just close the editor, and you return to your eclipse editor.
I hope this was helpful.
