My Main Question is which Eclipse IDE is used for SAP HANA development?
I am trying to build an application using SAP HANA, and a guide tells me to get an Eclipse IDE from the download site. However, I have found that there are a lot of version/type of Eclipse IDE, such that Eclipse for C/C++, for Java, for PHP, etc.
Which one should I choose to download and install?
You can download the basic eclipse installation.
Others installations have plugin pre-installed, but you can install them anytime you want through the update-site system.
You can download SAP dev tools plugins for eclipse on this adress
You choose the luna or kepler software site and add them in eclipse under :
Help > Install New Software > Add... : type in the url selected

How can I switch to the Web perspective in Eclipse Kepler, so that i can see the Servers tab in the console? Or is there any other way i can access servers tab in Eclipse Kepler?
Please note that the Web Perspective is not available in Eclipse Kepler. Please help me with this
The Web perspective is available in Kepler if you have the Eclipse Web Developer Tools installed. Some Eclipse downloads include this, others do not.
If you don't have this installed you can install it in your Eclipse by going to Help > Install New Software.... Work with the Eclipse Kepler software site and look in the Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development section.
I've Eclipse 3.5.2 and I've a web service, under Windows-> Preferences I can't see CXF, I know it's available in Eclipse 3.6 but is there any way to make it available in Eclipse 3.5? Perhaps by downloading the CXF jars or something? My goal is to generate WSDL file from my web service interface.
I'm using eclipse indigo. so I'm not sure if this'll work for you.
If you go to Help > Install New Software. Look for the The Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) software repository
I'm using Eclipse Indigo so its > http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/indigo
Now it'll list different "Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP)" Versions, Select the latest one and you should see CXF Web Services under it. I'll just install the entire platform. you can also install the platform sdk if you like. See the image below for more info.

I have Standard version of eclipse Galileo. Now I want to develop enterprise applications on it. Any idea how can I get Java EE perspective? How to install Java EE tools in the standard version?
I had the same problem. I installed the latest Eclipse platform, Indigo, first using the Ubuntu Software Center, and when I didn't see the JavaEE perspective, I though I'd gotten the wrong one. I deleted that and installed the Java EE version downloadable from eclipse.org -- but still no Java EE perspective available. Then I read the advice above (and elsewhere) about installing the WTP plugins.
I decided to blow away the previous installation of Eclipse, because I prefer installing everything through the normal package management system. Then, after having installed Eclipse again, through the Ubuntu Software Center (and not seeing the Java EE perspective)... but I'll tell the rest of the story as a set of instructions:
Install Eclipse. In Ubuntu, you can do it at least in these two ways:
Go to the Ubuntu Software Center, search for eclipse, and install "Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE"; or
Give the command sudo apt-get install eclipse eclipse-cdt eclipse-emf eclipse-emf-examples eclipse-emf-sdk eclipse-jdt eclipse-pde eclipse-platform eclipse-platform-data eclipse-rcp eclipse-rse eclipse-xsd eclipse-xsd-sdk (those are what I have after doing all these steps; they might not all be necessary, but can't hurt)
Open Eclipse, and give a directory to use as a workspace.
Go to "Help" -> "Install New Software...".
In the new dialog, in the "Work with:" pull-down list, select "Indigo - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigoIndigo - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo".
Click the checkbox to the left of "Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development".
Click the "Next >" button. The installation will start.
The dialog will now list the items to be installed, and ask you to confirm the installation. Click the "Next >" button. The installation will complete.
Now, back in the main window, in "Window" -> "Perspective", I still could not see "Java EE" -- but it might have been under the "Other" selection; I didn't check, and that's where it can be found now that I've done everything described here.
Click on "File" -> "New" -> "Dynamic Web Project". The existence of this selection means that you've successfully installed the web development tools.
Configure the project. After you've pressed "Finish", Eclipse should ask you whether you want to open the Java EE perspective.
By the way, some of those Eclipse packages that I give for installing through apt-get might have been installed during the Eclipse software update phase, as I didn't install all of them by myself. The most important ones are eclipse, eclipse-platform, eclipse-platform-data, eclipse-pde, and eclipse-rcp. The descriptions of all of them are:
eclipse - Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE
eclipse-cdt - C/C++ Development Tools for Eclipse
eclipse-emf - Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF)
eclipse-emf-examples - Eclipse EMF/XSD examples
eclipse-emf-sdk - Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) - (Source/Documentation)
eclipse-jdt - Eclipse Java Development Tools (JDT)
eclipse-pde - Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment (PDE)
eclipse-platform - Eclipse platform without plug-ins to develop any language
eclipse-platform-data - Eclipse platform without plug-ins to develop any language (data)
eclipse-rcp - Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP)
eclipse-rse - Eclipse Remote System Explorer (RSE)
eclipse-xsd - XML Schema Definition (XSD) for Eclipse
eclipse-xsd-sdk -
The standard edition can be upgraded to J2EE edition by installing the different plug-ins like WTP and so on.
Did you try to look at the update site for Galileo?
It's better to download newest version of eclipse "for Java EE Developers".
It also includes standard version.
i have eclipse
Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers
Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers
Eclipse for PHP Developers
Pulsar for Mobile Java Developers
but how can i merge them and have a single interface just by changing perspective rather as if i have installed them from the update site as a plug-in can i just move all the files from each of them and put them in the plugins folder that is found in
a#a $ ~/.eclipse/org .../plugins
I think the best solution is to start from a clean installation and install components from the UI of this install. You can for example install first
Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers
and then install the 2 other ones using the Help -> Install new Software menu.
The main goal of this solution is about dependencies. The install software action (using P2 internally) will manage dependencies for you. The copy solution you mentioned should result in dependencies not resolved and difficult to identify.
I want an Eclipse Java EE plugin which I can install directly from Eclipse.
I searched about it on Google and found some ones but couldn't figure out how to download them directly from Eclipse.
One plugin I found was WTP but couldn't find the location of the WTP repository that I can enter in the Eclipse's Software Update tool.
I am using Eclipse 3.4.2 (Ganymede)
I warmly suggest to install Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers which already includes the Web Tools Platform (WTP) and much more (see this page for a full comparison).
As an alternative, you can download a zip of the Web Tools from here or install it via Update Manager using this URL:
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates/
If you have Eclipse Galileo you should go to Help > Install New Software. Then the list of available sites to install updates will appear. You should add the WTP plug-in to this list, for example.
To do this, click on Add and enter the name and location (you can get this from the WTP site). Then, select this plug-in and click on Finish. That's it and it's valid to all plug-ins.
when you are searching do a comprehensive search http:// in eclipse
Google search the repository containing Java EE WTP
Install the new software in your IDE, restart your IDE, right click under the project explorer view, select new, the option for creating a dynamic web project should now be available. I did it using the luna version of eclipse which dose not have the default and now have the option.
Use
help---install new software--type http://findbugs.cs.umd.edu/eclipse
And go from there
