Using old version of GWT SDK with Eclipse Luna - eclipse

we have a project which is compatible with GWT SDK 2.4 and Eclipse Indigo. I am trying to move to Eclipse Luna. Although I have made a progress, I couldn't get all of the features yet. Here is what I've done:
Downloaded Eclipse Luna and JDK 1.7 (both 64 bit)
Using install new software, installed last version of GWT SDK and
designer
Downloaded GWT SDK 2.4
Set this SDK as default (I copied some jars from SDK 2.6 in order to
do this)
After this installation, the project succesfully compiled and debugged. In addition, there are no problems with GWT Designer with my old ui.xml files. However, when I try to add new page I realized that Add New MVP view is gone. Is there a way to bring back this feature? Or can I copy from old Eclipse plugins?

Is there any way to install direct 2.4 version of GWT plugin in eclipse?

In our project we are using GWT-2.4 version of GWT plugin. This plugin was already installed in eclipse which will support for Windows XP-32 bit in long back.
But, recently I got a new system with Windows 8.1 - 64 bit. When I tried to install GWT plugin in JUNO/LUNA, by default it is installing GWT-2.6 version. This will be not supported in my project.
If is there any way to install GWT-2.4 version of GWT plugin in eclipse, please reply on this question.
Are you talking about the SDK version?
If yes, download the SDK from here.
Unpack the SDK.
Goto Preferences -> Google -> Web Toolkit
Select the Add button and choose the recently downloaded version.

I install the Google Plugin 4.4 in my eclipse LUNA (version 4.40) , but I don't know it and which GWT Designer plug-in matching

I choosed this version of google Plugin: https://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.4
but I should choose which version of GWT Designer?
GWT Designer isn't maintained and won't work with latest version of GWT. You'd better not spend time trying to install/configure it.

Eclipse Luna without built-in plugins

Eclispse Luna has been just released. I wanted to grab it from the download site. But here comes my problem. Even the Standard and Java Developer versions have features built-in which are not needed for me and just slows down the IDE. For example i do not use Mylin or Plug-in development. These things cannot be deleted from the installation... Is there an Eclipse Luna release which only contains the basic package?
Look at the Eclipse Project downloads
The Eclipse Platform is the smallest (but does not even have Java development).
The Eclipse SDK has Java and Plugin development and the Eclipse source. This is the one I always start from.

Building Hadoop(1.2.1) Eclipse(Kepler 4.3.1) Plugin

I tried building an eclipse plugin for Hadoop for my Eclipse Kepler V 4.3.1
In the web I see a lot of information for JUNO and some prior versions but tried copying those jars into my eclipse->plugin directory brought me no luck. hence tried building my own eclipse plugin but even that is not working for me. Has anyone here has a Hadoop plugin working for Kepler?
Below are my other config details :
Mac OSX
java version "1.6.0_65"
I managed to sucessfully build it using this guide
with some slight modifications, i am however using Eclipse 4.3.2 on Arch and java 7.
Either way here is my plugin if it helps.

Possible to do GWT 2.2 Maintenance in Eclipse Kepler?

I have the task to do some work on our GWT 2.2 code base with
the GWT Config, etc, used, is long gone. And I must use Eclipse Kepler.
Does current GWT provide backward compatability that far?
Any thoughts?
The version of the Eclipse plugin is independent of the version of the SDK you use in your project. You can use the newest plugin with GWT projects that needs older versions of the SDK.
You have to set this up in the project properties.
