I'm pretty new to eclipse plugin development but it's working fine so far except the part that my plugin does only show in java or plugin development perspective.
this is related to the following locationURI:
locationURI="popup:org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer?after=additions"
an other perspective uses "Navigator" for example therefore my plugin does not show.
how am I able to make it visible in Navigator (don't know the locationURI for it) and Project Explorer too (popup:org.eclipse.ui.navigator.ProjectExplorer#PopupMenu) ?
Use
locationURI="popup:org.eclipse.ui.popup.any?after=additions">
to contribute to any popup menu which has an 'additions' position.
I want to increase the working space on the screen, like at IDEA.
Inder Luna there is no any full screen plugin at Marketplace.
I believe Eclipse made a change to accessing the search menu because I had added my own menu item using
menuBarPath="org.eclipse.search.menu/dialogGroup"
But I upgraded to Luna and this menu item no longer shows up, so the menuBarPath would be the most probable guess. So how can I modify it so that the menu item shows in Luna
I have eclipse INDIGO version for Android development. I don't know how but by mistake eclipse view is changed.I want to restore my eclipse view again as before just help me.I want to set my eclipse view in horizontal way i.e. package view and open classes view should be in column wise like.
Now it looks like:
Try Window -> Reset Perspective...
A simple question :
I am using Eclipse 3.7 Indigo and have updated the GWT (2.4) Eclipse plugin.
Now I can't find the GWT compile button in the main toolbar.
Previously there was this symbol in the main toolbar ,
but after the update, this button has disappeared and the compile action has been moved as a submenu entry into the "Google Services and Development Tools", represented in the main toolbar by this symbol .
Is there a way to add the GWT compile button to the main toolbar or to specify a shortcut?
It's really exhausting to click on the "Google Services and Development Tools" to reach the compile submenu entry :-)
Highlight your project
right-click on it
go down in the dropdown menu to "Google"
The submenu of "Google" will have the "GWT Compile" button
In Eclipse Juno, GWT Compile option is located on the toolbar underneath the Google logo as seen here:
There is no key binding in Eclipse Juno for GWT Compile. That seems to be something the plugin could provide, but does not.
You can add a button for any command to the toolbar by go to Window -> Customize Perspective and exploring the dialog there. You may need to enable things using the Command and Menu visibility and then in the first tab you can add the buttons to the toolbar.
I don't know of a way to add the toolbar item back, but you can run the compiler via keyboard shortcut:
Debug Compile GWT Application, Alt+Shift+D, C
Run Compile GWT Application, Alt+Shift+X, C
You can also customize the keyboard shortcut if you wish, by going to Window->Preferences->Keys.
If you want to compile a GWT application, you should install the Google plugin. Here are the links.
