Creating a Java project using an Eclipse plugin - eclipse

I am currently working on creating an Eclipse plugin. I have used JFace dialogs for users to put in certain details. When the user clicks finish, the Java project should be created automatically. How do I go about implementing that project creation?

Can't create a GWT web application in Eclipse

I'm installing the plugin following these istruction http://gwt-plugins.github.io/documentation/gwt-eclipse-plugin/Download.html
The installation appears to be successful (if i go on the installed plugins I can see GWT Eclipse plugin 3.0.0) , but when I have to create a new web application I don't find the button for create it. I tried to search the button in "other" too.
Eclipse version: 4.22.0
The eclipse plugin is not fully maintained right now, the recommended way for creating new GWT projects is to use a multi module archetype that separate the client from the server, there is already a good archetype to do that you can find it here tbroyer gwt archetype and follow the instructions in the readme file to check how you can run the application.

eclipse RCP: plugin runs via popup-menu

Activate JavaFX in already existing netbeans project

I have an already existing netbeans project and i would like to have the possibility to add javaFX files from the netbeans menu. Is there any way to active JavaFx on an already existing project?

NetBeans 8.0.2 missing Java Desktop Application

I recently installed latest version of NetBeans and when I tried to make a new project type "Java Desktop Application" it won't appear in Java category.
Please help?
I've installed this plugin:
Java Swing Framework Library
JDK Project for Netbeans
Even I installed all of java plugins. But no luck!
By Java Desktop Application you may be referring the "Swing Application Framework" and that was halted by Sun Microsystems before Java 7 around year 2009 end.
For developing Desktop Applications using Java in NetBeans you have multiple options as follows:
Using Matisse UI Builder
The Matisse UI builder is available in NetBeans and you can create JFrame and JDialog classes in your application which can be used as your UI in any Java application. This approach needs a lot of boilerplate code to be written for creating windows, menus and dialog boxes. The next option is better if you want a professional cross platform Java Desktop Application
Using NetBeans Platform as base of your application
NetBeans IDE is built on the top of NetBeans Platform and you can also use the NetBeans Platform to build your own Desktop application with many conventional features out of the box coming from the NetBeans Platform. The NetBeans IDE comes with NetBeans Modules project types where you can choose the "NetBeans Platform Applciation: project type to create a desktop application. There are lot of tutorials and help available for the NetBeans platform on NetBeans users list and platform mailing list.
If you are still looking for the answer, or if anyone out there who want help, then here is an option. I think you want the drag and drop option, right? Here you go.
Just Start new project as Java and Java Application as shown below:
And then give any name to your project, like helloworld as shown below:
After you click finish button, the helloworld package will be opened. Now go to the left (mostly) or right side of the screen there is a list of projects. Go to your project and right-click on Source Packages -> New -> Other as shown below:
Now another window opens, and select Swing GUI Forms from Categories and JFrame Form from File Types, then Next and give the name and location for the class.
Now the form should appear on the window. You can now go back to source code and go forth to Design as you want. Have a nice coding.

What plug-in do I need to create a web application in Net Beans

I just installed NetBeans on my local system. I want to create a Web application but when I click on File->New Project-> The dialogue box that pops up does not give a Web option (I know one exists because I've seen it in text books). Instead I see Java, Maven, NetBeans Modules as my options. Is there a plug in that I need so that the Web option appears?
Thank you,

It seems that you didn't download the correct download bundle.
The NetBeans download page shows an overview of all available bundles. From your description it seems that you have the JavaSE package. But you will need the JavaEE package.
As stated on the same page you can add modules:
You can add or remove packs later
using the IDE's Plugin Manager (Tools
| Plugins).
