I downloaded Eclipse Mars 1 from a mirror chosen for me on the Eclipse website. But the md5sum on the downloaded file is 929f821dc83eaac83fc6320b291dcb7f while on the Eclipse website it's been given as 72a722a59a43e8ed6c47ae279fb3d355. This struck me as odd because it's the first time I'm experiencing something like this -- I've made like ~20 such downloads, different files, different servers, since I started learning how to code -- and all of them matched the checksums on their respective servers.
So I decided to get a fresh download from a different mirror. I chose https://spring.io/tools/eclipse. And the thing is, I can't find any checksums around there but the md5sum for their file is a562f87ddf353dd8519edfc072d4c67d. I'm confused. I'm under the impression that irregardless of the mirror, the file hash should match the hash given on the Eclipse website -- 72a722a59a43e8ed6c47ae279fb3d355
Either the md5sum was not updated correctly on the website or you had a hiccup in your Internet connection that made the file change, resulting in the difference you're having.
Another rare case might be that you made a mistake in choosing the checking
option: for example I once copied the sha1 code instead of md5.

I am trying to use this fasttext model crawl-300d-2M-subword.zip from the official page onI my Windows machine, but the download fails by the last few Kb.
I managed to successfully download the zip file into my ubuntu server using wget, but the zipped file is corrupted whenever I try to unzip it. Example of what I am getting:
unzip crawl-300d-2M-subword.zip
Archive: crawl-300d-2M-subword.zip
inflating: crawl-300d-2M-subword.vec
inflating: crawl-300d-2M-subword.bin bad CRC ff925bde (should be e9be08f7)
It is always the file crawl-300d-2M-subword.bin, which I am interested in, that has problems in te unzipping.
I tried the two ways many times but with no success. it seems to me no one had this issue before
I've just downloaded & unzipped that file with no errors, so the problem is likely unique to your system's configuration, tools, or its network-path to the download servers.
One common problem that's sometimes not prominently reported by a tool like wget is a download that keeps ending early, resulting in a truncated local file.
Is the zip file you received exactly 681,808,098 bytes long? (That's what I get.)
What if you try another download tool instead, like curl? (Such a relay between different endpoints might not trigger the same problems.)
Sometimes if repeated downloads keep failing in the same way, it's due to subtle misconfiguration bugs/corruption unique to the network path from your machine to the peer (download origin) machine.
Can you do a successful download of the zip file (of full size per above) to anywhere else?
Then, transfer from that secondary location to where you really want it?
If you're having problems on both a Windows machine, and a Ubuntu server, are they both on the same local network, perhaps subject to the same network issues – either bugs, or policies that cut a particular long download short?
I write Android stuff using Eclipse+the ADT plugin. For VCS I use SVN.
What I am trying to accomplish: have my program, in its 'About' screen, display the SVN revision number it was built from. Obviously, this better be automatic. We cannot assume the program will have network access when run so this info has to be known at compile time.
Today I've been researching this topic and seems like this seemingly common scenario is actually not so easy to do or I am missing something. Lets see:
1) first approach: write a 'pre-commit' SVN script that, on each commit, would update a little file, that would be named 'revision' and would be located in the root of my project. Then writing a function that would open this file, read the revision number and put it in the 'About' screen would be trivial.
This doesn't quite work as the file would be updated server-side. So imagine this scenario: I check out rev. 3708, modify, commit, pre-commit creates 'revision' with '3709' in it. I build - and my local 'revision' still contains '3708'. Not good.
2) I hear ( Getting SVN revision number into a program automatically ) that SVN has this clever feature that it is able to replace various magic strings in your files, one of then being 'Revision', if one sets appropriate SVN metadata on all files in a project under SVN control.
This does not quite work again, because of the problem mentioned by user 'Smashery' in the link above - namely, SVN will only replace the 'Revision' magic string in files that got changed during the last commit.
3) Write a 'pre-build' Eclipse script, and have it run 'svnversion /path/to/your/project' and save output of this in /path/to/your/project/revision.
This does not quite work again - I mean, I have tried and writing such script is actually surprisingly easy. If I were working on a single computer, it would have worked for me - but unfortunately I work on two computers, one Linux machine in home and another Windows machine at work. I keep switching machines every day (during the day Windows, in the evenings Linux at home).
The problem here is with Eclipse: as soon as you add a 'pre-build' script, it creates a new hidden directory in your project folder ( .externalToolBuilders ) , which, among other things, contains the absolute path to the script to run (obviously). This path cannot be the same on both of my machines (being Linux and Windows). In order for things to be automatic, I need to check this in to SVN, and as soon as I do, things will work only on one of my machines unless I keep manually correcting the path every day!
Any ideas?
Third way (slightly polished) can be and will be The Right Way, if you'll grok some things
Workplace specific settings must not be shared and stored in repository: ignore .externalToolBuilders on both locations but configure Eclipse differently according to your needs and settings
Except identical for all OSes svnversion (and don't forget ignore also /path/to/your/project/revision, because build-artifacts must not be part of repository) you may want to use more powerful somehow subwcrev (on Win-box) and svnrev (on Linux-box) in pre-build event - svnrev also contain some useful reading
My colleague and myself are fairly new to RubyMine and to Ruby. We use WinXP Pro.
I want to zip a small Ruby (non-Rails) project and either email it to my colleague or copy it to a share. Note that we are not currently using a single repository for RubyMine projects.
Edited: Please ignore everything above the line. It seems to be causing some generous responders to waste their time. I apologize for that.
Assume the post starts below this line.
I have no internet connection. I want to zip a small Ruby (non-Rails) test project, copy it to a floppy, and deliver it by hand to a friend. My friend has no internet connection.
I would like to confirm that all I need to do is to zip everything including, and below, the project root in Windows Explorer. (I'm assuming that the "project root" is the folder that contains the "gemfile".)
I'm assuming that the gemfile.lock will force my colleague's gems to match mine, even if one of his gems is more up to date than mine.
I'm assuming that the contents of RM's "External Libraries" will be recreated on my colleague's RM, without my needing to include these files in the ZIP.
I would be grateful for any advice.
Use a version control system like git or svn.
I have been using Netbeans for several months now and like it a lot. I am trying to enable a way to create a project which accesses live files on my server to make changes. When I create a project using a remote source, it starts downloading all the server files to my computer. This would be just fine, except for the fact that (a) the server has a few gigs of files on it and (b) there are two of us that will be making changes on the server.
In the past, I have worked with IDEs that just open an FTP or SFTP connection and will download the file you want to edit, and then upload that file back to the server when you save it. Preferably, this is what I would like Netbeans to do.
I have tried adding a FTP folder in Windows, but Netbeans won't open it. I have tried using Swish and setting up an SFTP folder, and Netbeans won't find the Swish folder altogether.
On a side note, I understand what I am doing is horrible practice, but it is a small site and I am usually the only one working on it. I haven't worked on the website in the past several weeks and just thought it would be easier to get access directly than re-downloading the entire server's worth of code/images/videos/etc. Any help would be appreciated.
NetBeans does not support what you want to do. However, if you put your site under Subversion/Git (revision control), you could check out the content, modify it locally and push modification back remotely.
This would also help avoiding code clashes when your friends work on your website too.
Actually Netbeans supports this for php projects.
Just choose :
PHP Application from remote server
(but git is the best solution anw as it gives you version control as well but the above is useful if you want your server files to be updated when you just press ctr+s)
As I need to develop java, php, c++, I use several eclipse packages.
so I try to simple to copy several packages into one, and then I use these option to start the eclipse:
1. -clean
2. osgi.checkConfiguration=true
but it doesn't work, I only find the last copied packages after the IDE start.
Get one of the packages from their site and use the Install new software... feature under the help menu.
I think the most straightforward way to get the modules for all of the languages to play nicely together, though I admire your DIY spirit.
Try to use Yoxos for building your custom Eclipse distribution.
From luxsie:
How to merge several setup packages of Eclipse?
Whom this is for?
The ones that can not hold back their temper any longer when trying to install another Eclipse function package. Right the installation speed from some countries is too slow to bear, also the Equinox P2 always try to connect the Download.Eclipse.org. Much to damn.. when your Internet connection closed or reset all of a sudden and got all downloaded files broken. Also OSGi based Eclipse plugins is chaos -- always have some conflict errors.
Oh that is another problem..
Do the following steps:
1 Download the Install Packages that you need from www.eclipse.org. Also please remember verify to see if that is correct package. I choosed J2EE with C/C++.
2 Unpack one package with uncompress softwares, such as 7-zip and WinRAR. unzip all the files to a directory you wanna install to. for example "D:\Eclipse\".
3 open Configurations. Files "\configuration\org.eclipse.equinox.source\source.info" and "\configuration\org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator\bundles.info" in the installation directory is the ones that need to be merged. also you need "\configuration\org.eclipse.update\platform.xml".
4 open the other packages and fetch their configuration files, and merge files.
to Bundles.info:
Open the bundle.info with any Functional Text Editor, copy all text begin from the line after "#version={Number}" and paste it to another. [{Number} means any Integer number.]
to Source.info:
Similiar with what you did with the bundle.info. If not modified, that line should be the 3rd line in the text file.
to Platform.xml:
Open the file, then find where "feature id=" starts just after the "site" node. Find the "/site" tag and copy all the text between them, paste to another file just before the "/site" tag.
[You can do the similiar also marked feature tags with artifacts.xml]
5 when merging i suggest you to make a new directory and when finished please remember copy the merged file to the one where should it be and overwrite. [I mean where it comes from]
Although not merge "platform.xml" will not cause any functional errors, it will make the About dialog with no button -- to ugly yeah?
[= =|||]Ugly is caused by the artifacts.xml in the installation directory...
6 Open all the package, find "plugins" and "features" directories.now extract!
first extract the one you want most. I extracted JEE package.
then extract the other ones. I don't see any problem whether Overwrite the ones or not.
7 do open a console window, and locale in the installation directory, and then execute "eclipse.exe".
Well, somebody ask me why i paid no attention to the Artifacts.xml in the installation directory. That's because Eclipse will never check the file. It seems to be when you want to update using zip files -- however this way is blocked for lacking site.xml file now.
Then guys, wait a several minutes for eclipse to do some sorting and cleaning job for the merged configurations.. and install your plugins!
INFO: if you face some problems after install a new plugin and restart.. that is because you haven't finish a complete artifacts.xml merging.
You may delete all the artifacts.xml 's header [document start to the "artifacts size = '{Number}'"] and its bottom [from "/artifacts" to document end]. just merge the left content. and make one file just contains the header and bottom, paste the merged one in.
Eh..maybe you can calculate the {Number}s' sum and correct the one in the final document.
