Cant dowload google app engine 1.9.1 - eclipse

So I am trying to run a google web application through eclipse, but when I run it gives me an error to please check for newest SDK version, which is 1.9.1. And sure enough Im working with 1.9.0, but I cant find any updates for GAE and it says all components are installed under help->install new software.
Ive tried downloading .zip file of 1.9.1 and extracting it to my eclipse\dropins dir but that doesnt do anything either. What do I do after Ive extracted it in to my dropins dir? And why cant I find the new version using eclipse own installation tool? Should I really be getting this error?

Try Eclipse Help -> Check for Updates instead. Sometimes the SDK detects a new version before Eclipse does, and everything synchronizes within a day or so. The SDK message is informational, not an error, so you can safely ignore it in the meantime.

In addition to what Martin suggested, you can download the SDK separately and unzip that in any separate folder. Then from your Eclipse Preferences, go to Google, App Engine SDK and select that particular version folder.
FYI - I prefer keeping the SDK versions separate from Eclipse. That way, I have the entire list of SDKs available in another folder structure and can use it across Eclipse versions too.

Problems creating a project with CodenameOne in Netbeans

Install Netbeans 12.6 on a Windows 10 machine. I was able to install the CodenameOne plugin with no problem. When creating a project I get the following error message:
Cannot invoke "org.openide.filesystems.FileObject.getFileObject(String)" because "folder" is null
I've been surfing the internet and can't find a way to fix it.
Thank you for your support.
This approach is no longer supported. The plugin is only used for legacy applications and no longer works in newer IDEs due to breaking changes in almost all IDEs.
Starting with Codename One 7.x we moved to maven projects which don't require the plugin and can be created in https://start.codenameone.com/
I have followed the instructions in the manual and it mentions as important:
"Before opening the project in NetBeans, you need to copy the contents of the tools/netbeans directory into the root project directory. These files are required by NetBeans to build, run, and debug the project correctly. "
But I can't find this folder in netbeans version 12.6.

In switch to Android Studio should my SDK location be the same as Eclipse version?

I'm trying to move from Eclipse ADT NDK build to Android Studio on my Mac OS X. In doing this, one thing I notice is the Project Structure's Android SDK Location for my ported project and for new projects is defaulting to be: /Users/user1/Development/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20131030/sdk.
Shouldn't the Android Studio come with its own SDK and shouldn't I be using it by default? I looked in the application install directory but found no signs of an SDK directory there. I'm concerned that the sdk is from October 30, 2013 and so it seems rather old. What are the implications of moving to a newer SDK?
Perhaps related to this is that when trying to use the old Eclipse Kepler that used to build for me:
I get notice on Eclipse launch:
This Android SDK requires Android Developer Toolkit version 23.0.0 or above.
Current version is 22.6.2.v2014032112031-1085508.
Please update ADT to the latest version.
Click "Check for Updates":
No Updates were found.
No Repository found at https://dl.google.com/alt.
Tried to update the repository to (for Kepler Eclipse):
https://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.3
Still no updates found but error about no repository goes away.
I resolved this later issue with the answer posted here.
cant comment on details of OSX but on linux/AS with Eclipse & AS , i found follow to help:
provision environment to use multiple versions of java JDK
install oracle JDK 1.7 that will be just for use by shell script running AS
note ASRoot/bin/studio.sh .... if [ -n "$STUDIO_JDK"
accordingly provide for the above ENV VAR and its use by the AS.studio.sh
that version of the JDK does nothing more than run AS
Then , for the ADT stuff (OK to be shared by Eclipse & AS ), you can keep updated another version of the SDK/ADT in a path where theres read access by both eclipse/ AS.
I think u can use ./android to keep updated this , original sdk/adt

Eclipse ADT NDK plugin 23.0.3 Hangs indexer

I recently updated the ADT eclipse plugin from 22.x to 23.0.3. Being aware that there is a bug that blocks a clean update, i downloaded ADT from scratch, so to make the suggested workaround.
Only with the ADT bundle, there is no support for native development (NDK), which I need for my project, and so I downloaded the NDK suport using the classic install new software...
No problems with the installation at all, I restarted eclipse to find that the indexer, working fine until then, gets blocked at some point (the % reached is irrelevant, since it changes everytime I try), and I have to restart eclipse, since it does not respond while using 93% of CPU.
Do you know if there is anything wrong with the newest adt package? (the actual version is 23.0.3.1327240). If so, is there any workaround to enable native support without getting this problem?

Cant re-install Google Web Toolkit using Eclipse plugin

I installed and updated Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.7 a few weeks ago. It installed GWT as well as other things. I was able to compile a Google App. I did several things on Eclipse today and now GWT is gone. I look at Preference-->Google-->Web Toolkit; the list is empty. I ran plugin update, it keep saying GWT is already installed and refuse to update/re-install. I uninstall GWT explicitly and run plugin update; it update without complaint. But the Preference-->Google-->Web Toolkit; the list is still empty!
How do I force plugin to populate the SDK info in Preference-->Google-->Web Toolkit?
There is actually an "Add" button to configure SDK. But I dont know the installation directory of GWT. Where does Eclipse plugin save the GWT?
Seems Eclipse keep track of the installation of GWT SDK in two different place?
My GWT SDK database seems corrupted, and Eclipse plugin seems rely on its own private data base of the status of installation of GWT SDK?
Can anyone please help?
I think that what you are referring is not the plugin but the SDK.
Download the SDK unzip it then add it preferences->Google->Web Toolkit.
The link to to download the SDK is: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/

How to install Axis2 plug-in to Eclipse (for Android dev)?

I got my Eclipse (Indigo Service Release 1, Build id: 20110916-0149) installed and running for Android development. Now, I want to consume a WCF WebService (wsdl) in my Android app. As I learnt, this can easily be done using Axis2 plug-in for Eclipse. However, I had hard-time to install the Axis2 plug-in.
I understand there are similar questions already asked, but I couldn't make it work using all the suggestions, and there is no accepted answer either. That's why I created this new questions. It would be nice if somebody can tell which version is working one? or how to make the latest (1.6.1) work?
I do not understand the plug-in installation processs in Eclipse. I see p2 folder in my local drive under Eclipse, so I assume I could just extract the download to dropins folder, right?
#Andreas Veithen
Thanks for your answer buddy. The 1.6.1 version was driving me nuts. I tested it both in a Mac and a Windows machine and the result was the same. It just would not work. I took your advice and got the 1.6.2-SNAPSHOT version and it shows up just fine now.
#miliu
No matter which version you are looking for, you need to get the Axis2 eclipse codegen plugin.
Here is the link to the page where you can find the 1.6.2-SNAPSHOT version:
https://builds.apache.org/job/axis2-1.6/lastStableBuild/org.apache.axis2$axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin/
Download the axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin-1.6.2-SNAPSHOT.jar at https://builds.apache.org/job/axis2-1.6/lastStableBuild/org.apache.axis2$axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin/artifact/org.apache.axis2/axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin/1.6.2-SNAPSHOT/axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin-1.6.2-SNAPSHOT.jar and drop it in your dropins folder. The latest version of Eclipse should already have a dropins folder after you extract the downloaded archive. You should now see the Axis wizards in Eclipse after restarting.
The above answers were not easily understood so I'm adding this for anyone reading this in the future.
Taken from the Axis2 website:
Download the ZIP file for the plugin you want to install.
Extract the content of the plugins folder in the ZIP archive into the dropins folder (i.e. do not create a plugins folder under dropins).
Ps: Get the 1.6.2 version from this link
The 1.6.1 version has a bug and doesn't work. Use 1.6.0 or 1.6.2-SNAPSHOT (which can be downloaded from here) instead.
All recent versions of Eclipse use p2. You need to put the JAR files into the dropins folder.
