.jar plugin for Eclipse not being loaded - eclipse

I am trying to install FatJar plugin in Eclipse, but it is not showing up. I am doing everything as explained in the documentation, extracted the .jar file in plugins directory, then started command prompt inside Eclipse folder with "eclipse -clean", and it doesn't show up...
Anyone know how can I check if the plugin is being noticed at all?

This plugin is very old and is using the old style plugin format which is not supported by default by current versions of Eclipse.
As mentioned in the documentation most (probably all) of the features provided by this plugin are now part of Eclipse as standard (see 'File > Export > Java > Runnable JAR file')

Eclipse set build automatically option In eclipse off by default

Is any way to do that?
I found the preference definition :
org.eclipse.core.resources.ResourcesPlugin.PREF_AUTO_BUILDING
but I don't know where to update it.
this link explain how to do that but i can't find the plugin_customization.ini file of the force.com plugin
This is only one plugin_customization.ini file and that is in the product plugin for your Eclipse installation. This file is in the Eclipse installation directory not the workspace.
For my installation the product plugin is org.eclipse.sdk but depending on which build of Eclipse you installed yours may be different.

Add language pack to eclipse RCP

I downloaded the eclipse language pack from the following site:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/babel/babel_language_packs/R0.10.1/indigo/indigo.php
I put the downloaded plugins in the plugin folder of my eclipse installation.
My question: How do I use these plugins with my eclipse RCP application now?
I seem to be unable to add them to my application because I can select them no where. I also tried to drop them into the plugin folder of my RCP application after I exported the application and adding the plugin names to the config.ini but I had no success.
I'd appreciate any help on this topic since I'm stuck :(
Since 3.6 or so, Eclipse doesn't try to find additional plugins in the plugins folder; it will only consider what has been installed with p2 (i.e. via the "Install New Software" menu or the marketplace).
There should be a dropins folder next to the plugins folder; put the language packs in there and Eclipse should automatically pick them up.
See the documentation for details.

JCDE plugins in Eclipse doesn`t work ,java card

I copy the eclipse-jcde-0.2 into eclipse'plugin folder ,but the plugins in eclipse doesn't work, Do I still lack of something necessary such as FEATURES folder and how can I get the features ?
OS:windows
Eclipse version :3.2.
It is working fine for me.
I have followed exact instructions from the link eclipse-jcde
Only changes I have did is I have used Eclipse 3.5 instead of eclipse 3.2
For Installation in Eclipse 3.5 follow the below steps.
After downloading Eclipse 3.5, inside eclipse folder create plugins folder (if already not present.)
Paste all the jar files from the downloaded zip file (eclipse-jcde-0.2.zip\plugins folder) to plugins folder (there are 8 jars)
Start the eclipse in -clean mode.
To Start eclipse in clean mode : On the eclipse folder right click and open command prompt, then issue the command eclipse -clean.
Now follow the instruction to set the path for java-card-dev-kit-home as mentioned in the above link.
I am able to create java card project and applet and even start the JCWDE simulator as well.

Installation of FindBugs plugin with Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers

I'm struggling to get the Eclipse FindBugs plugin to work and am sure there's a schoolboy error being made somewhere.
I extracted the file findbugs-2.0.2-rc2.zip to a local folder C:\Program Files\findbugs-2.0.2-rc2 and running findbugs.bat, FindBugs works fine running it over a local Java (Eclipse) project.
I added the FindBugs update site, it found "FindBugs Feature, 2.0.1.20120712" and installed it. Restarting, right-clicking on an open Java Project doesn't display the "FindBugs" option (that this video shows).
I looked in Window > Preferences to try to find a way to inform the plugin of the local FindBugs installation (in Program Files), but couldn't find anything.
Uninstalling "FindBug Feature", I tried extracting the FindBugs Eclipse plugin zip file into Eclipse's plugins folder, but after a restart, saw no difference.
Help > About Eclipse > Installation Details > Installed Software lists "FindBugs Feature 2.0.1.20120712".
Can anyone please offer a pointer on where I'm going wrong here? Thanks!
Windows 7, Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers Juno SR1, JDK 1.7.0_09, FindBugs 2.0.2-rc2
As suggested above, problem is likely caused by not having appropriate write access to the C:\Program Files\Eclipse\plugins folder.
Solution:
Close Eclipse. Restart Eclipse as Administrator (right click - Run as Administrator). Reinstall plugin. Restart Eclipse.
It looks like the Findbugs plugin wasn't installed properly and/or disabled by Eclipse. There can be several causes.
Multiple versions of the same plugin. To make sure this isn't the case, remove all Findbugs versions (installed manually and via the marketplace), and reinstall one (preferably via the marketplace). Watch for any warnings during installation.
There is a (dependency) conflict with another plugin. However, if this is the case I think Eclipse will warn in the log which other plugin is the cause of the conflict.
Rights problem. Make sure you have write permissions in the main Eclipse folder and all it's child folders.
I remember reading somewhere that installing Eclipse under the C:\Program Files\ in Windows can also be causing problems. Try moving Eclipse to a different folder, e.g. C:\Eclipse
Hi I also faced the similar problem but from my own experience i can suggest you the solution :-
Plz ensure that you are using eclipse version 3.6 or higher. findbugs 2.0 is not compatible with Eclipse 3.5(Eclipse Galileo).
1) Plz extract the findbugs zip file into eclipse folder(wher your eclipse is installed). This will automatically move findbug plugins into eclipse plugins folder. Restart the eclipse and you will find findbugs option on right clicking on project.
2) if 1 step does not work plz remove all the findbug jars for the eclipse plugins folder and place the complete folder into the eclipse dropins folder. Restart the eclipse and you will see the difference.
You can follow these step's to make findbugs work in your eclipse.
1.Install FireBug plugin from marketplace.
Help->Eclipse Marketplace ->then search for FindBugs
2.Configure FindBug for your project
using Maven Without Maven
This worked fine for me using eclipse juno.

Plug-in for Eclipse

I am developing a plug-in for eclipse for JSHOP2 language. For that i made a plug-in project with 'editor'. I have written the code for the neceessary syntax highlighting for JSHOP2 but I don't know how to integrate this types of plug-in with eclipse and then how to take use of it, so that while i write the JSHOP2 code the necessary syntax gets highlighted. Please help me with this.
So you have an editor that works correctly?
Then you need to make sure the files with your extension are opened with your editor. That is described in the Eclipse wiki.
To make sure your plugin is integrated to your version of Eclipse, either create an update site and import the plugin as you would do with any other plugin. Or export the plugin to a jar and copy the jar to the dropins catalog.
Since you are using eclipse to write java code (plug-in project). Create a new eclipse launch configuration. Menu Run -> Run Configuration. Location eclipse application. Right click -> Create new & Run. Hope this helps.
