Unable to create JFrame even i installed Windowbuilder in my Eclipse IDE - eclipse

I have already installed Windowbuilder in my eclipse IDE Mars it worked fine before, but after Eclipse latest changes i am unable to install windowsbuilder with the provided URL of specific IDE Windowbuilder. later i figured out that we must install the Windowbuilder by downloading the repository.zip file. i have downloaded and installed it but still unable to create a JFrame in my Java Project. But what i am confused is i am able to paste a SWT/AWT code in a simple Java Class file and able to execute it.
have installed the repository .zip
No JFrame found after installation.
updated error

GO this route as it has worked for me: Go to help menu in eclipse go to "About Eclipse" in the bottom left corner click on "Installation Details", click the "installed software" tab, search for window builder and click to delete all features for it. Restart Eclipse, then instead of installing window builder using the "install new software" menu in help, open eclipse market place, search for window builder and install it that way, when you get the options you want to install click on Swing that lets you create JFrames. If that does not work, download a new copy of eclipse and go back to the market place and install window builder again, its possible you have conflicting plugins in your installation. I was able to install it in 2018-09 just yesterday, if that still does not work please comment.

Can not find "GWT Eclipse Plugin" in Eclipse marketplace to install it

I have installed Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers (includes Incubating components) Version: 2022-12 (4.26.0) and Build id: 20221201-1913, when I open Eclipse marketplace and search for gwt it can not find GWT Eclipse Plugin, so I am unable to install it.
I tried other ways like drag n drop the install button from Use the Drag and Drop Install Button and it didn't worked,
also I tried adding the url http://storage.googleapis.com/gwt-eclipse-plugin/v3/release via Help->Install New Software... menu and I encountered with error that the url is not reachable.
Today is 12/27/2022 and I have seen reports that the url was available in some time frames but now it is unavailable.
Finally after many try and error I found how to add GWT Eclipse Plugin
1-Download the released package from
http://storage.googleapis.com/gwt-eclipse-plugin/v3/downloads/repo-3.0.0.zip
2- From Help->Install New Software... select a name and select the
downloaded zip file, then you were able to see GWT EClipse Plugin and
Google SDK option, the next steps is straight.

Eclipse Marketplace Install pending

I just installed a new version of eclipse IDE(2020-12) and tried to install the plugins I had on the older version but had no success.
As shown in the picture, when I find the plugin in the Eclipse marketplace and click install, "install pending" shows up and nothing happens. I neither get any pop-ups that ask me to proceed with the installation nor see any progress at the bottom right of the eclipse window. For the older version(2019-06), I can install without any changes in preferences or some other sort of settings. I wonder what could cause this issue?
I have the same problem but it works via update site: http://editbox.sourceforge.net/updates
From Eclipse menu open: Help->Install New Software and paste the link.
I think the problem is with Editbox but I can't figure out what exactly is wrong (I'm the author of the plugin).

How to install TestNG in eclipse Kepler

I am trying to install TestNG (which I have never used before) in eclipse Kepler (4.3). I've tried to follow the directions provided on the TestNG site (http://testng.org/doc/download.html), but they do not work. The link (http://beust.com/eclipse/) just takes me to a page with a jar file. My experience is that when you use the installer within eclipse, it expects to be provided with a "p2" repository site. If I try to set up a site with the address provided, it fails.
On a related note, do I need to install TestNG as something additional (outside eclipse), or is the eclipse plug-in sufficient?
It is working fine on my machine. I just installed TestNG on my eclipse by following the steps below:
Click on Help > Install New software
Add the link http://beust.com/eclipse in Work with text box as shown below.
TestNG feature will be shown, expand the tree node then verify the version.
Tick the check box of TestNG
Click on Next button then Finish button.
I guess you enter wrong software update site. Remove the / and extra spaces around the link "http://beust.com/eclipse/" then try.
Nothing to install outside eclipse.
TestNG can also be installed in Eclipse by using "Eclipse Marketplace..." Below are the steps:
Open eclipse
Go to Help -> Eclipse Marketplace...
Do search for TestNG (Type the text TestNG in Find text box > Click Go button)
After searching: Click Install button at TestNG for Eclipse area
Follow the further instructions by eclipse
After successful installation: Go to Window -> Preferences. TestNG is enlisted at the left panel in pop-up.
Download Testng.jar and add testng jar as external-lib in eclipse. Eclipse will identify the testng.
Currently, TestNG is not available at https://beust.com/eclipse
To install TestNG in Eclipse version – 2019-03 or above, You can follow these steps:
Go to Window > Install New Software.
Enter https://testng.org/testng-eclipse-update-site/<TestNG Version> Refer to this site for TestNG Version: https://testng.org/testng-eclipse-update-site/
Select TestNG Options and Accept the agreement. Once you complete the process, TestNG will get installed.

Eclipse Indigo "Install new Software" has "Next" button disabled in Ubuntu 10.04.4

I just downloaded the Eclipse Java EE IDE (64-bit) for Ubuntu 10.04.4. I was trying to install some plug-ins by using Help --> Install New Software. But when I select any site in the consequently appearing dialog-box, the "Next" button is not enabled.
I tried un-installing and re-installing eclipse, getting the tar file of eclipse, even the classic IDE of eclipse, running eclipse as root and nothing seems to work.
Can somebody tell me what's wrong?
P.S. I am attaching a screenshot of the problem
It looks like the install dialog got squeshed vertically. There should be a big table of stuff to install. Try making the dialog bigger.
Click on already installed link and see if the plugin is already installed. Uninstall it -> Restart -> Repeat -> Next button should be enabled

Eclipse File>Import "Other" missing for Maven 2 plugin

In attempting to follow the instructions on Using Eclipse with Maven in order to use Scala and Lift:
You’ll need to download and install Eclipse for Java or Java EE.
I first installed Eclipse on lubuntu 11.10 using the Synaptic Package Mananger.
The version I am using is "Eclipse Platform Version: 3.7.0 Build id: I20110613-1736". Then the instructions say to install M2Eclipse:
Then install the M2Eclipse, Scala IDE, and M2Eclipse-Scala plugins.
So I followed the link to M2Eclipse where there is a video which says to use "File>Import" which should display a list of choices which includes "Other" in the "Import" window. These instructions are at time stamp "00:55" in the video. My "Import" window only lists "-General -CVS -Install-Pligin -Plugin-Development -Run/Debug -Team".
What am I missing?
Not all Eclipse versions have Maven2 preinstalled. You can check if it is installed in Eclipse via menu Help > About Eclipse. Check if there is an icon with the text m2, or alternatively click on "Installation details" and check the "Features" tab.
After you've installed it you will have new options in the File > Import menu.
Install M2Eclipse via menu Help > Install new software. Then click on the add button and add a site with location http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e. Wait until contents are retrieved and check the items you want to install.
