I would like to know how I can add an extension element for an extension.
In the previous versions, this was possible by right-clicking on an extension and selecting "New" and later one of the predefined elements from the context menu. But now when I right-click, I don't get anything.
I have the same problem with my plug-in.
I have resolved it by upgrading to Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2).
You need to install the RCP targets to make it work. Follow below steps :
Goto Help
Install New Software
type "Update site: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.4/"
Choose "Eclipse RCP Target Components" and press Next to install them

I have already installed Windowbuilder in my eclipse IDE Mars it worked fine before, but after Eclipse latest changes i am unable to install windowsbuilder with the provided URL of specific IDE Windowbuilder. later i figured out that we must install the Windowbuilder by downloading the repository.zip file. i have downloaded and installed it but still unable to create a JFrame in my Java Project. But what i am confused is i am able to paste a SWT/AWT code in a simple Java Class file and able to execute it.
have installed the repository .zip
No JFrame found after installation.
updated error
GO this route as it has worked for me: Go to help menu in eclipse go to "About Eclipse" in the bottom left corner click on "Installation Details", click the "installed software" tab, search for window builder and click to delete all features for it. Restart Eclipse, then instead of installing window builder using the "install new software" menu in help, open eclipse market place, search for window builder and install it that way, when you get the options you want to install click on Swing that lets you create JFrames. If that does not work, download a new copy of eclipse and go back to the market place and install window builder again, its possible you have conflicting plugins in your installation. I was able to install it in 2018-09 just yesterday, if that still does not work please comment.
I've updated my Eclipse IDE recently and a new launchbar appeared after the CDT update.
I really don't like it, which is why I'm trying to get rid of it. I haven't yet found a way to hide or disable it...
Do you know how I could do this ?
Here's a snapshot of the launchbar : https://wiki.eclipse.org/images/1/15/CDTLaunchBar.png
The LaunchBar (org.eclipse.launchbar.feature.group) comes as a dependency of "C/C++ Qt Support" (org.eclipse.cdt.qt.feature.group), so you need to either un-install the Qt Support CDT component, or disable the LaunchBar in Eclipse preferences:
The launchbar used to come as a plugin for the CDT, which is probably how you got it, but it was later (in the Mars release) was moved to be a standalone feature - which is probably what #Doug Schaefer refers to.
If you have the new version of the Launch Bar that is installed as a feature, you can go to Help -> About Eclipse and click the "Installation Details" button. In the "Installation Details" under "Installed Software" you should see the "Launch Bar" and be able to uninstall it. Note that if you had the Launch Bar installed previously as a plugin, it will still remain on your system after you have removed the Launch Bar feature.
Regardless if you have the feature version or the plugin version (or both), you can also just hide it using the Eclipse preferences: Run/Debug -> Launching -> Launch Bar, and there would be 2 or 3 check boxes - just uncheck all of them (or just the first actually) and you should be good to go.
I'm not sure how you got it. The LaunchBar isn't part of the CDT. Only the new Arduino CDT uses it.
To remove it, find the org.eclipse.launchbar feature and uninstall it.
I am trying to install Findbugs plugin for MyEclipse 6.0.1 using follwing steps:
In Eclipse, click on Help -> Software Update -> Find and Install...
Choose the Search for new features to install option, and click Next.
Click New Remote Site.
Enter the following:
Name: FindBugs update site
URL: one of the following (note: no final slash on the url)
http://findbugs.cs.umd.edu/eclipse for official releases and click OK.
"FindBugs update site" should appear under Sites to include in search.
Click the checkbox next to it to select it, and click Finish.
As soon as I click Finish eclipse shows me error saying "No features found on selected sites".
Can anyone plz tell me how should I proceed for Findbugs plugin inatallation in MyEclipse v6.0.1.
MyEclipse 6.6 is based on eclipse 3.3, so I assume 6.0 is also based on eclipse 3.3. That version of MyEclipse is now unsupported. However, you might be able to download the Findbugs plugin from here (which also list several update sites) and install it manually. I don't recall how to add plugins manually to eclipse 3.3 but there is probably a section in the help that comes with MyEclipse.

Got Eclipse RCP Plug-in Developer Resources installed.
Created an Eclipse RCP plugin project. Added org.eclipse.ui.views extention and tried to add a view. Only generic options is available. I guess the schema cannot be found. How can I point to it?
thanks in advance,
Lukasz
Are you looking in the right place. Right click on org.eclipse.ui.views in the extensions tab to get the context menu. The top item should be New with a sub-menu for the extension point types.
I don't need m2eclipse to work properly, I just need to remove m2eclipse for now and let eclipse behave normally. how do i do this?
Two solutions:
Remove the plugin through the list of installed plugins
(the illustrations are from the blog post "Install Eclipse UI Form Editor" written by Albert ATTARD):
The "about eclipse" menu will give you access to the list of installed Software:
You can click on the right application (m2eclipse for you, Jiglo in this example), and click uninstall, and restart eclipse.
A safer solution would be first to install a new fresh copy of Eclipse, and add your existing plugins (except m2eclipse): if that fails, you still have your previous Eclipse installation untouched.
after doing what VonC suggested, goto the directory eclipse\plugins and search anything with m2e and remove it from the directory
also do the same for the eclipse\features directory.
then you won't be seeing any of the m2e things again.
i would have used m2e if it had a command line feature similar to
"mvn eclipse:clean" and "mvn eclipse:eclipse"
sadly their both incompatible with each other..
right now all i needed are those two command lines to get me up and running with eclipse just to browse and edit the code, etc..
