Is there any netbeans trick that would do like Sublime text that if you just type div.header-class then it will then just automatically formulate `
<div class=header-class"></div>
How to do that trick? or is it possible?
I think this is probably through a plugin known as Emmet.
NetBeans has a plugin for it too. The plugin page indicates that it's for older versions, but the comments are reporting success with version 8.1. Incidentally, it doesn't show up in the plugin manager from NetBeans on Windows for me, but the GitHub page looks active though.
The Emmet download page points to this repo.
In Netbeans you have Code templates:
Code templates are prewritten snippets of code provided by NetBeans IDE. You can paste a snippet into your code by using code completion or the template's abbreviation followed by the Tab key.
Following the tutorial linked you can define your own code template to meet your requirements.
I'm using the following version of eclipse on windows 7 desktop. On my ColdFusion files opened in eclipse I don't see +/- symbols for collapsing/expanding blocks of code. On the tool bar I can't find any option for enabling this feature. I don't see an option for Java-->Editor... either. In Preferences section I see only the options shown in the attached image:
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers
Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
Build id: 20150621-1200
UPDATE Using the help from #E-Riz I found the folding option in Preferences and enabled all the options there as shown in the updated image below. But still I'm not seeing +/- symbols in the code editor to collapse/expand the code blocks. I've tried closing and reopening eclipse, as well.
As you can see there are no +/- sings in the file below although the editor used is CFEclipse:
The feature is called folding. If you enter "folding" (without the quotes) in the Preferences search field, you'll find the places where it's configured.
I don't know if you have a plug-in specifically for editing ColdFusion files; if you do, it may or may not support folding. For example, CFEclipse has folding support, so if you open your files in that editor, you should see it.
I have just starting using the nodejs templating engine jade. Unfortunately my IDE eclipse doesn't seem to have support for this syntax and is not highlighting correctly.
Is it possible to add support for .jade files to eclipse?
As current lead of Nodeclipse effort www.nodeclipse.org I announce that Nodeclipse v0.12 has added Minimalist Jade Editor, see http://www.nodeclipse.org/history. Added just before release as I got sick of .jade to be opened outside of Eclipse.
#134 - Minimalist Jade Editor
idea is to define HTML tags and JavaScript keywords as words for highlight in Word.java
and then use it together with EditBox
Nodeclipse scope is growing, now it has Gradle for Android and JavaScript in general that I want to work on for next iteration. Also looking for developers and company willing to support the project. Raise an issue on GitHub/Nodeclipse to continue.
check if this helps
Jade-syntax-highlight
Follow the pattern used for adding HAML support to an Eclipse install, and find a lexer and colorizer for Jade.
I'm using PyDev for eclipse and am experiencing some issues with "go to definition". It works for most modules, but for some site packages it does not. It does the "bump" sound and then nothing happens. One of the packages that doesn't work is Twisted, which is weird since the source is included and right there. Any idea how to fix this?
The go to definition works just fine. The problem was that eclipse didn't know where to find the source. You can go to window > preferences > pydev > interpreter > New folder, and add the folders missing. Even though you've added site-packages to the configuration, you still have to add subfolders separately to get code assist and to be able to go to the definition.
Pydev (also bundle with the Aptana distro) does not seem to have any bug exactly similar to the one you are describing.
Here is the list of bugs including the word "definition" for PyDev: bugs
You could open a bug report there with the exact version of eclipse, pydev, java used
But first:
What version of Pydev are you using? The open-source one or the commercial one (i.e. open-source + Pydev extensions)?
Because the matrix feature is quite clear:
Feature List Pydev "Open Source" Pydev Extensions
---------------------------------------------------------------
Go to definition BRM* Pydev Extensions(2)
BRM*: Bicycle Repair Man is an open-source program that provides 'go-to-definition' and refactoring. Its 'go-to-definition' only works for Python, and only works 'well' for global or local tokens (does not work very well on methods from parameters or on 'self'). It is currently 'unsupported'.
Pydev Extensions (2): Pydev extensions provides a 'go-to-definition' that works for python and jython, and should work even on methods from parameters and 'self'.
I was intending to have a play with git, and was wondering if anyone had used the git plugin for eclipse
I see it's at version 0.3.1, and was wondering if anyone knew how stable it was / any gotchas?
Update:
If you are using a recent version of Eclipse, your Help menu has an 'Eclipse Marketplace...' link.
Enter 'git' in the Find field. This shows me EGit.
This is also very high in the Popular plugins list.
Click install. Much easier than having to add update site locations by hand.
Github blog spoke yesterday about Egit plugin:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/jgit/
I'm using if for day-to-day work and I find it stable. Lately the plugin has made good progress and has added:
merge support, including a in-Eclipse merge tool;
a basic synchronise view;
reading of .git/info/exclude and .gitignore files.
rebasing;
streamlined commands for pushing and pulling;
cherry-picking.
Be sure to skim the EGit User Guide for a good overview of the current functionality.
I find that I only need to drop to the comand line for interactive rebases.
As an official Eclipse project I am confident that EGit will receive all the main features of the command-line client.
EGit is still in eclipse incubation. You can install it using the Eclipse update manager.
Select Help -> Install New Software...
You probably do not have the JGit update URL in your list of sites so in the 'Work with:' field enter this url: http://www.jgit.org/updates
Click Add...
You should now see Eclipse Git Plugin - Integration Build (Incubation) listed as available software to install. Check it and click Next.
Click Next and agree to the license and it should be installed.
You can integrate Git-GUI with Eclipse as an alternative to EGit.

It still seems barely usable, to tell the truth, especially in comparison to the CVS and SVN plugins. Is it really GIT so different that developer with four years of CVS and SVN plugin experience should be completely lost with completely different GUI, unheard commands, two or even single word error messages and "features" like overwriting the shared repository without warning? Do not use it, use command line interface. If you do not like command line interface, do not use GIT at all.
Meanwhile EclipseGit is an "Official Eclipse Technology Project" (09-05-07 GitWiki). I use the current version 0.5.0 (the Wiki is a step behind the development) from time to time, without any problems. Version comparison, commit, revert etc. is working well, although manual refresh's (F5) are necessary when using command line or other Git clients (usual and acceptable Eclipse behavior I think).
For a command line view from within eclipse, install the Aptana Eclipse Plugin, it provides you with a console. It's an incredible productivity boost if you do a lot of terminal commands.
I've set up EGit in Eclipse for a few of my projects and find that its a lot easier, faster to use a command line interface versus having to drill down menus and click around windows.
I would prefer something like a command line view within Eclipse to do all the Git duties.
egit has a serious bug when comparing a file in your working dir with an earlier - it flashes a blank tab. The bug has been around since 2010 and still has not been fixed.
This very basic feature which works very well in svn plugin is completely broken.
I've used it briefly, but it was still lacking support in several important areas (it wasn't doing renames/moves properly, or something). There also was no update site available for it.
I don't remember which version it was, but this was like 6 months ago. Hopefully it is better now.

There is also gitclipse(based on JavaGit), but seems dead.
