I'm trying to upgrade my eclipse from Indigo to Luna (I know that Luna is not the newest but my company does not have a license for a newer version for now).
My tool uses the eclipse Indigo and depends on it. One of the previous developers wrote some notes on how to upgrade:
We will need the following:
execution eclipse installation.
target eclipse installation
an eclipse SDK tarball to run the unit tests
Change the following places in the build plug-in file:
Version of org.ecilpse.pdebuild (pdeBuildPluginVersion=Version)
Version of org.eclipse.equinox.launcher (equinoxLauncherPluginVersion= Version)
Execution eclipse location (eclipseLocation=Path)
Eclipse SDK tar ball (sdkTarBall=PATH-TO/eclipse-SDK-3.7-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz)
I don't understand which versions should be in the pdeBuildPluginVersion and in the equinoxLauncherPluginVersion fields - Where from I should get the needed information?
Also, what is the "Eclipse SDK tar ball" and where should I find it?
You can download old Eclipse SDK versions from the Eclipse Project archive here. Choose your release and then download the Eclipe SDK tar.gz for your platform.
You find out the versions of the plugins by looking in the plugins directory of your Eclipse and finding the plugins, which might be something like:
org.eclipse.pde.build_3.9.0.v20140415-2029
org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20140415-2008
The version is the part following the '_' character

The option runAs->TestNG on xml file is missing somehow on my eclipse,
I tried to install the eclipse from scratch and now I have Version: 2018-12 (4.10.0).
Also I have latest JDK and JRE testNG is installed as far as I see and when I want to install them again I have a problem.
All the threads that i saw till now nothing helped me and i tried all the solution as i wrote maybe you have any idea
the only solution i founded till now is that i need to install eclipse from scratch and convert the same project again to TestNG and to copy the old XML to the new one, if its the latest eclipse than to download the beta version of TestNG
There is an issue with the TestNG plugin and Eclipse 2018-12 (https://github.com/cbeust/testng-eclipse/issues/408). You can use the current beta version from https://github.com/cbeust/testng-eclipse.
If the picture above of your installed software is the current state of your Eclipse 2018-12 setup, it cannot be a clean install. The version 6.14.x of the TestNG plugin is not compatible with 2018-12. It is not possible to install the plugin with Eclipse. Either the existing Eclipse directories are reused or the plugin directories have been added manually. It is important to remove them. After that, it should be possible to install the version 7 beta of the TestNG plugin.
It should look like this:
With this setup, you will get your context menu entry for TestNG:
Eclispse Luna has been just released. I wanted to grab it from the download site. But here comes my problem. Even the Standard and Java Developer versions have features built-in which are not needed for me and just slows down the IDE. For example i do not use Mylin or Plug-in development. These things cannot be deleted from the installation... Is there an Eclipse Luna release which only contains the basic package?
Look at the Eclipse Project downloads
The Eclipse Platform is the smallest (but does not even have Java development).
The Eclipse SDK has Java and Plugin development and the Eclipse source. This is the one I always start from.
Now I am using Eclipse Kepler Version: 3.9.1.201308190730, but i don't how to configure "CodePro AnalytiX" plugin in Eclipse Kepler. Is it possible to configure "CodePro AnalytiX" in my current Eclipse Kepler?
And is "CodePro AnalytiX" plugin the correct tool for testing code perfomance? Otherwise suggest any other tool for code testing.
-Open Eclipse Kepler
-Help -> install new software
-enter this URL:
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/codepro/latest/3.6
-Enter
If you found any other good tool for persistance tests, please let me know :)
Enjoy!

If you are having trouble installing from the update sites (due to firewall issues, for instance), you can install the Google Plugin for Eclipse by downloading and installing an archive of the update site.
Yes Its compatible for eclipse version: Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2)
Several tutorials mention that you can download spring in a tarball
and install it on your computer but when I go to the springsource
site all I can see is that you can download Spring Tool Suite
which is an eclipse plugin. So my questions are:
What if I wanted to work from the command line or an IDE other than eclipse?
The packages are available for Juno 3.8.2 or Juno 3.4.2, but how can I find
out my eclipse version? I've downloaded the most frequently downloaded version
of eclipse which is the one for Java EE developers but when I click on the Help
-> About entry I get:
Version: Juno Service Release 2
Build id: 20130225-0426
which does not match the eclipse versions on the springsource site 3.8.2 or 3.4.2,
so how do I know which plugin I need?
Thanks.
You can find out your Eclipse version by going to Help -> About Eclipse...
In the dialog that pops up, you will see something like:
Version 4.2.2
or
Version 3.8.2
If you downloaded the most commonly downloaded version, then you most likely have 4.2.2. The "Juno" release actually has distributions built for both 3.8.x and 4.2.x (a little complicated and confusing, I know). So, you should be able to install the Juno version of STS and be fine no matter what which version of Juno Eclipse you have.
EDIT
Your question is not very clear. I thought you were asking about how to install STS, but maybe you are asking about whether or not Eclipse is necessary at all. The answer is that of course, Eclipse is not necessary for Spring development, but it really is the easiest way to develop your spring apps (disclaimer, I am on the STS dev team).
There is no single way to just "downlaod the SpringFramework" because the framework is really just a very large set of jar files and their dependencies. Any single project typically only requires a subset of them as well as requiring other third party dependencies. For this reason, most people prefer working with a build tool like gradle or maven.
Probably the easiest way to get started w/o STS is to clone one of the sample projects from github. A list of the templates are available here: http://dist.springsource.com/release/STS/help/descriptors-3.0.xml which is obvioulsy meant to be consumed from inside of STS. But, you can use the file to grab links to the various github projects.
The Springsource Tool Suite (STS) is not required for developing with Spring. If the question is how you would install the STS, that's actually very easy. In Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo) or 3.8, 4.2 (Juno), click on the Help menu and select Eclipse Marketplace. If its not in the inital screen, use the find box type spring and click go which should bring up the the STS with the version of eclipse it is for in the title. Click install and the correct version and its dependencies will be installed for you. Try to use the eclipse marketplace for all the plugins you install, if possible. It makes things much simpler
Attempting to install Mercurial on Eclipse Java EE IDE Juno from
http://cbes.javaforge.com/update in the Install new software...
but,
"Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found. Software being installed: codeBeamer Eclipse Studio (with Mylyn) 3.1.0.v201011161842 (org.codebeamer.eclipse.mylyn_feature.feature.group 3.1.0.v201011161842) Missing requirement: codeBeamer Eclipse Studio (with Mylyn) 3.1.0.v201011161842 (org.codebeamer.eclipse.mylyn_feature.feature.group 3.1.0.v201011161842) requires 'org.eclipse.mylyn_feature.feature.group 3.3.0' but it could not be found
I tried on Windows 7_64 and ubuntu 12.04_64. I even installed mylyn using the latest stable releases from http://download.eclipse.org/mylyn/releases/latest
Any Ideas?
Already browsed web and this site.
You could also try the update URL from the Google Code repository instead, which installs only MercurialEclipse.
+1 to installing from Google Code Repository.
Initially Eclipse wouldn't start because of problems with the older version of the plugin so to get past this simply removed the jar com.vectrace.MercurialEclipse_1.9.1.v201111302231.jar from the Eclipse plugins directory then uninstalled the existing plugin and re-installed from the link in smooth reggae's post.
All seems good so far.
The problem is, that the codeBeamer Eclipse Studio requires an older version of Mylyn (3.3.0), which isn't available for Juno.
But AFAIK you don't need the whole CBES, if you only need the Mercurial features. Try to select only MercurialEclipse, it should also be available in that update site.
