Debugging NodeJS with Eclipse nodeclipse issues - eclipse

I can debug nodejs with the nodeclipse plugin. The only issue I have is the hover over during single stepping does not show complete properties list. Is this something I can fix?
Also can someone create add nodeclipse tag line please?

All project properties are shown as a tree in Variables View, you can also use Expression View. This is standard Eclipse experience.

PyDev: project not visible

I was using PyDEV without issue but recently when I create a project in Eclipse the project is not visible in the PyDev perspective but is visible in the Java perspective. My project is a python project. It seems that the perspectives are a little mixed up.
Is there a way to fix this?
My solution was:
Going to PyDev Package Explorer
Click View Menu button (arrow pointing down, top left area of the Package Explorer panel)
Top Level Elements
Click Projects
Maybe you added some filter which is hiding it in the PyDev package explorer?
I.e.: have you tried going to the PyDev package explorer filters (in PyDev package explorer > Ctrl+F10 > Customize View).
Or maybe you set the top-level to working sets and don't have a working set on PyDev? (i.e.: Ctrl+F10 > top level elements)
Or maybe you selected a working set which has nothing? (i.e.: Ctrl+F10 > select working set)
I know this is an old question, but I've had to deal with this specific problem in Eclipse 4 Luna, and I have an idea for what's wrong.
Use Package Explorer instead of PyDev Package Explorer.
The native Package Explorer, when in working set view, appears to automatically create and populate the working set "Other Projects." PyDev's explorer does not appear to do this, at least not on my default Luna installation. As well, PyDev's assignment of projects to working sets appears broken on Eclipse 4 Luna, so users of PyDev Package Explorer may have trouble finding their projects between views.
Enable Package Explorer:
- Window -> Show View -> Package Explorer
If Package Explorer not in menu:
Window -> Customize Perspective
Click the Menu Visibility tab.
Expand Window
Expand Show View
Find Package Explorer and put a check in it.
OK
Click Window then Show View, choose Package Explorer and rejoice.
I hope this helps at least one of you. I'm terribly new to Eclipse, and it is probably the single most unfriendly thing I've ever had to use. Good luck!
I had the same problem. Newly created projects did not show up. This is what brought me to this question. While looking at the answer provided by #alecor_Dev, which does not answer to the question, at least in my case, I managed to solve mine.
If you have a working set created and selected new projects will not show up. The easiest way to test is to go to:
PyDev Package Explore->View Menu button (pointing down)-> Deselect Working Set.
If you has a working set but more projects in that workspace more projects will show up.
If you want to keep the view clean you can go back to your working set but add the new project by editing the working set:
PyDev Package Explore->View Menu button (pointing down)-> Edit Active Woking Set.
And click on the project you want to add or remove.
I hope that this will help other with similar issues. While working set are a convenient way to declutter the view, can add to confusion.
I Suggest to #Fabio Zadrozny to add some visible way of marking that we are working inside a working set.
I hope that #medPhys-pl can confirm this although he moved to LiClipse. Obviously, there can be other causes that can create this kind of behaviour, but the initial description of the problem seems very similar to mine and I hope that it will solve other people's issues.

cant see the errors in my project - Exclamation mark

When I'm trying to run my project it said that i have an errors in my project, but i can't see any. I have an Exclamation mark on my project. If I'm trying to run other project, it is run perfectly.
Before that happened, I played a little bit with the project library and tried to copy some jars to the library. I tried to copy the jars manual to.
Thanks!
did you try the "Problems" View? This should show additional information.
The easiest Way to get there:
Ctrl + 3, then type "Problems".
-Hannes
Besides the "Problems" view, there is also the Console that could give you some hints.
For the Console View, there is the problem that it can show different subviews; for example it can show the console for Android or the console for DDMS. In the toolbar at the upper right of the Console view, you will find the control to choose the right console to display. Be sure to choose the "Android Console".
Another possibility is to use the "Fix Project Properties" that you will find by right clicking on the projet => Android Tools -> Fix Project Properties. This will fixes some but not all the potential problems that you might have introduced in your project.
For the rest, check in detail all properties of the project.

In an eclipse plugin: How can I programmatically highlight lines of codes in the java editor?

I am trying to develop an eclipse plugin that does some documentation check on java code and highlights some lines of code in the editor.
To achieve my goal, I DON'T want to create a new editor in eclipse, I simply want to extend the default java editor to draw a line under (or highlight) the methods that do not satisfy some set of predetermined requirements.
Do I need to create a PresentationReconciler? If yes, how do I make the JDT or workbench use my reconciler.
I have never done plugin development and this is my first attempt.
Several starting points for you:
Annotations are an UI feature of JFace's text editor that allows you to visually mark some places in an open editor.
Markers are a Workbench feature, more high-level. They are generic "objects that may be associated with Workbench resources", and they can display in several places: in text editors (as annotations) or in the Problems view, for example.
Depending on what you want to do, you would plug in your plug-in into extension points related to either of those.
The Eclipse Java editor is located in the org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaEditor package.
The "internal" in the package name means that the Eclipse development team can change how the Java editor works with new revisions.
Try this help page: Juno Help on syntax highlighting
At the end of the page, it describes how to dynamically add a PresentationReconciler, which is used for syntax highlighting. See if that fits the problem that you want to solve.
I assume you already have a plugin project.
In your plugin.xml, open the tab Extensions, click Add..., search for org.eclipse.ui.editors, then you should see a template named Editor, which will produce a simple xml editor to experiment and play with. Also, you will be able to see the needed structure to define a custom editor.
Hope this helps...
I don't know if you still have a need for this, but you are going to want to use Annotations to keep track of what parts of the editor you need to highlight.
For actually doing the graphical effect of highlighting, you could do syntax highlighting via a PresentationReconciler, but I have no experience with that.
We used a technique we borrowed from http://editbox.sourceforge.net/, replacing the background image of the editor Shell. Its open source, so check it out. (Our code might also help -- its at https://github.com/IDE4edu/EclipseEditorOverlay )

How to display editor tabs on the side of the editor pane in Eclipse?

In Eclipse Indigo (I'm on 3.7.2), is it possible to move the editor tabs from the top of the editor pane to the side of the editor pane, creating a vertical stack of tabs? This would allow many more tabs to be seen at once. Given my widescreen display and the large number of active files I am switching between this would be a useful configuration. I cannot find a setting or a plugin that will do so.
Not possible yet. See here and here
I got fed up with not being able to do this and wrote an eclipse plugin. You can find it in the marketplace at: https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/open-editors
Here is a screenshot
I do not know of a plugin which would allow one to do this.
This (
In Eclipse, can I view the files I currently have open in a vertical stack instead of a horizontal one?) confirms the same unfortunately.
I just searched a bit. I can see a lot of talk about having multi-line tabs, but vertical tabs don't seem to come up a lot.
The Open-Editors plugin has issue
Works well on Windows10 + Eclipse 4.8 + OpenJDK11. 100%
Have just tested. Dont forget to link your Eclipse to JDK-11

How to add views to Show In menu for particular file types

I use an older plugin called Veloeclipse for editing Velocity templates in Eclipse. There's been no development on this since 2009, which isn't a problem because it's mainly just for syntax highlighting and format validation. The really annoying thing about it, however, is that when I try to do Show In to view the current Velocity template within my Package Explorer or Project Explorer, the only available option is Properties. That's not really useful. I really need to be able to get to the file in one of the regular explorer views.
So I have sort of two questions:
Is there a way to configure this without having to monkey with any code? A configuration file or something? I've grepped through my Eclipse installation and haven't seen anything, but I'm hoping that there's something I'm missing.
So assuming that the answer to my first question is no, how do I go about modifying the plugin code so that it will show more than the Properties view in the Show In menu? Most of what I found on the plugin development wiki comes from the other direction: how to make your view or perspective appear in the Show In menu.
Any help with this would be hugely appreciated!
Try to check the plugin source code. it might do something different than other editors. What I mean is that the show in menu item that you have there is not the usual extension point but a hard coded context menu option.
