I am working on a project in eclipse Juno. And I see that Eclipse has a latest version as Luna.
Can I directly Shift my Juno Project to Luna.?
or
do I have to make some changes.?
This depends on how large your project is, and how many technologies it uses.
I did this for an enterprise project, and the steps were pretty straightforward:
Setup the Luna IDE (i.e. install all necessary software from update sites and such)
Copy-paste your Juno workspace (keep the old one)
Launch Luna IDE with pasted workspace. Check for any compile errors.
If all is okay, then switch JDK7 to JDK8, and change the workspace compiler to 1.8
I would suggest to import the project in a new workspace with Eclipse Luna, then try to install all the plugins you need and check the project setup so that everything works.
With this way you always can open the old working workspace with Eclipse Juno while you're doing the migration.

I installed the WindowBuilder plugin for Eclipse Oxygen.
When I right click on the src package of a project -> Other... however, I do not see the WindowBuilder Folder where I could create a SwingBuilder or SWTBuilder class.
I tried reinstalling it over the marketplace and the Install New Software option, but it doesn't seem to work.
Ok, I solved the problem, but it was pretty complicated (for me) and I dont know if you have to follow all steps to make it work.
My steps:
1) I updated from java 11 to java 14
2) I uninstalled eclipse oxygen and installed the newest eclipse version (2020-03)
3) I installed the WindowBuilder plugin and it worked
Note:
As far as I know, you need another plugin to make java14 work in eclipse. I downloaded Subclipse to do that.
I installed eclipse oxygen (4.7.0) "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers".
After installation I mentioned that "error log" view is not available any more.
I restarted eclipse multiple times and used also other workspaces.
How can I get back the error log view?
Did you try resetting whichever perspective you are using ?
(Window -> Reset perspective...)
I have found a solution: Just install Eclipse SDK by
Help->Install New Software...
After this is done restart eclipse and you got back the error log view.
The Error Log View is missing on a default installation of the Eclipse Platform Runtime. I assume this was missing from the "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" package for Eclipse Oxygen either (I didn't test myself).
For sure, I'm experiencing this problem in 2018-09 and 2018-12 if I install the Eclipse Platform Runtime Binary (the bare-minimum Eclipse runtime I know of).
I opened bug 543120 for this.
I don't have tested the hexadez suggested workaround, because having to install the whole Eclipse SDK just to have this view is too much for me.
Another workaround I found is to install the bundle "Mylyn Context Connector: Eclipse IDE" from the 2018-09 or 2018-12 update sites: it's a much smaller compromise.
I am using Luna "eclipse-java-luna-SR2-win32-x86_64" I am not able to open the server view, it is giving error "Could not create the view: org.eclipse.wst.server.ui.ServersView".
Can anyone help me on this.
The problem is at the install, if you choosed the java development environtment, the web development tools doesn't install. You must to go to the Install New software, and search for web development tools like the pic.
Eclipse - Help - Install New Software...
Good Look!
That build of Eclipse Luna just contains code for Java developers. The view that cannot be found is part of the Web Developers component of Eclipse.
You can either install the missing components in your existing Eclipse or download a version of Eclipse which contains that view (maybe 'Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers'). Also consider moving to Eclipse Mars which is newer.
Just in case ...
If you have upgraded your eclipse to Luna from an older version, you need to let Luna construct your new workspace, and then copy and import projects from your old workspace. Otherwise many problems, such this, would hamper the proper functioning of your workspace. For example, Maven may somehow not resolve properly. Your server view will be referencing for resources in a version of WST non-existent in the new IDE version.
When you upgrade from Luna to Mars, you will have to let Mars reconstruct your workspace again.

(in STS 4) Help - Install New Software...
unable to create a maven project after installing the m2e-egit plugin; Obviously I don't see the maven option under Eclipse > Window > preferences
Tool used:
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
Try this :
Firstly, for Maven:
Eclipse > Help > Install new software and add http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases.
Secondly, for m2e-egit:
Eclipse > Help > Install new software and add
https://repository.takari.io/content/sites/m2e.extras/m2eclipse-egit/0.14.0/N/LATEST/.
Because the version of m2e-egit in the Marketplace is outdated
Now restart eclipse.
It perfectly worked for me (Mars Version).
I had this same issue with m2eclipse-scala. I tracked the issue down to what seems to be multiple installs of the m2e plugin, one explicit and one implicit. This plugin gets installed by m2eclipse-scala if it's not already there (perhaps similarly to how m2e-egit operates). The base version of Eclipse that I'm using does NOT show m2e installed under Window > Installation Details, but all of the Maven buttons and toolbars are already present, and explicitly installing m2e makes them disappear.
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.
