I have Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers (3.7) installed on Windows XP and I installed Google plugin and GWT SDK , but even though plugin shows up as installed, I still do not get an option File > New > Web Application Project as it should be. And no icon with 'g' in blue circle on toolbar. What am I missing?
Thanks
Here is what I see on 'Plug-ins' tab in my Eclipse Installation Details screen:
Google App Engine Java SDK 1.7.6
Google Eclipse 3.7 Platform Plugin 3.2.2.v201303261859-r3l-r37
Google Eclipse Platform Plugin 3.2.2.v201303261859-r3l-r37
Google Eclipse Shared Platform Plugin 3.2.2.v201303261859-r3l-r37
Google Web Toolkit SDK 2.5.1
Go to Eclipse Market Place --> Search For GWT Plugin --> Download Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.7
It will take some time to download and install all the packages and plugins. But once it will be done, you will be able to see the google icon at the toolbar.
Also go through the following link.
https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/usingeclipse
I had the same problen when following the GWT Tutorial and I fix the issue.
You can go:
Eclipse --> Help -->Install New Software --> Work with
Then paste, any of these urls but change indigo or helios for your eclipse IDE distribution
Indigo Update Site - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/helios
Wait a moment and Eclipse will show you all options.
Check the option:
Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development
Then click the Next, Apply and Finish and restart your IDE to see the changes.
Is all.
You are probably missing Java 7 JDK.
Download and install the JDK from the above link, then follow these instructions to let Eclipse know where to find it.
After I installed Java 7, the GWT plugin buttons and menus finally appeared next time I started Eclipse.

I have installed an Eclipse for RCP and Rap Developers, below is the installation details:
Eclipse for RCP and Rap Developers
What I need is to intall the Eclipse Platform SDK, as shown below:
Eclipse Platform SDK
But I can't find how to do that, I found how to download a whole Eclipse Platform SDK version, but this is not what I need, what I need is to install it as a plugin inside the Eclipse for RCP and Rap Developers.
Open the 'Help > Install New Software...' dialog.
Choose the update site for your Eclipse release (this is different from the main release site). For Eclipse Neon the site is http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.6 (change the number at the end to match your release).
The contents of this site should include 'Eclipse Platform SDK' select that and proceed with the install.
Example for Eclipse Neon:
I'd like to learn java me. I've gone to the following site to download what is needed. My Eclipse version is Juno.
I've done the following:
Eclipse Juno
The Oracle Java ME SDK requires the MTJ toolkit, but it is not bundled with Juno and it must be installed manually. Therefore, install MTJ toolkit first.
Go to Help > Install New Software.
In the "Work with" field, enter this URL: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
Click Add. When the plugins are discovered, open the Mobile and Device Development Tools hierarchy and check Mobile Tools for Java Examples, Mobile Tools for Java SDK, and Mobile Tools for Java Examples. Click Next. On the installation screen select all plugins and click Finish.
A Juno plugin named org.eclipse.jetty.server_(version).jar conflicts with the MTJ libraries when the plugin version is higher than 6. If it is you must prevent it from loading by changing its name so the Jar file is not parsed. For example, change it to: org.eclipse.jetty.server.old
To open the device selector, select Window > Open Perspective > Other and select Java ME.
The MTJ is installed along with the 3 packages that also need to be installed:
Mobile Tools for Java Examples
Mobile Tools for Java SDK
Mobile Tools
for Java Examples
When I choose: Window > Open Perspective > Other
there is no Java ME option. Does anyone know why that option is not shown?
I do not know exactly why, but MTJ does not run with Juno. If you like Eclipse try it with Indigo.
Have you considered using NetBeans?
The google documentation http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/tools/gwtdesigner/wizards/gwt/uibinder_dialogbox.html shows GWT wizards in eclipse, however, on my system this is not displayed. How do I get them to show?

I definitely have GWT installed in eclipse and can run GWT projects
Here are my updated sites from the Help menu
Eclipse 3.7 WindowBuilder Repo http://download.eclipse.org/windowbuilder/WB/integration/3.7 Enabled
GWT Framework http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7 Enabled
Indigo http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo Enabled
Subclipse SVN http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.8.x Enabled

You need to install the full version of GWT Designer. Installing the GPE only gets you a stripped down version of GWT Designer (w/o any of its wizards).
Here's how I was able to get the GWT Designer tools to work on Eclipse Juno:
I already had GWT 2.5.0 installed, with GWT Designer. However, I couldn't see the designer anywhere
At the same time, I did not have WindowBuilder installed on my Eclipse.
So I first installed the WindowBuilder plugin from the main Eclipse plugin repo
Then I uninstalled GWT Designer (all 3 packages or so that are included)
Restarted Eclipse
Re-installed GWT Designer
Restarted Eclipse
Went to File > New > WindowBuilder > GWT User Interface
Got a dialog saying that I needed to install additional WindowBuilder toolkits. "Click finish to install this toolkit"
Clicked finished, Eclipse did its thing, problem solved =)
Not sure all the steps are required. I think the key is to have WindowBuilder installed with your GWT Designer, and remember to go to New > WindowBuilder instead of New > Google Web Toolkit
I am having issues installing the BlackBerry JDE plugin. I have downloaded and installed the plugin from the BlackBerry site. The installation ran smoothly and completed. However when I open Eclipse the option for BlackBerry is not showing.
I don't know what the problem is exactly. I tried many things but I am heading nowhere. I want to know how to add the plugin and get started on BlackBerry development.
The default download of the BlackBerry Java Plug-in for Eclipse is a combination of Eclipse and the BlackBerry Eclipse plugin. For version 1.3 and 1.5, the install directory will contain a full Eclipse Helios installation, along with the BlackBerry plugin. You should start eclipse from that directory.
From the download page, one of the new features for version 1.5 is:
Ability to download and install the BlackBerry Plug-in into an existing Eclipse environment by providing the BlackBerry Plug-in through an Eclipse update site.
So to take advantage of that, follow the instructions on "BlackBerry Java Plug-in for Eclipse Update Site" which explain how to add the site to your existing Eclipse setup, and then install the plugin from the site.
There are 2 options, as noted above.
The blackberry way: you download the full plugin (the name is misleading, since it's a full eclipse install including the plugin) from here.
The eclipse way: you install a 32-bit Java 6 SDK (64-bit is not supported and Java 7 has known problems with the code signing tool), then download the 32-bit Eclipse (I use version 3.7 "Indigo"), and install the plugin from Eclipse (Menu Help->Install new software, type the url "http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipseupdate/3.6/java" inside the "Work with" box, then you need to select the plugin and at least a Blackberry SDK from the list)
If everything works, you should see the blackberry icon in the "About" box.
You should also see a Blackberry perspective (under Window->Open Perspective), a Blackberry menu item under "Project"), and a Blackberry section if you create a new project.
There is no such thing as a "Blackberry tab". The Blackberry development tools are integrated with the environment.
you could have done some mistakes while the installation. I am also using in windows 7 only. Its working perfectly for me. Please delete the current eclipse and try to install as shown in this tutorial.
I have installed it on my new laptop just yesterday. Simple, follow the steps and you will be done. Note that the latest eclipse is Indigo and not Helios; I am using Indigo and I advocate it.
Go grab your Indigo
Unzip into ANY dammed directory. You must see a folder with "eclipse" created.
Double click the Violet eclipse Icon. You must now be seeing eclipse smiling at you.
Select the menu Help->Install New Software
Select a hyperlink present at label "Find more software by working with the "Available Software Sites" preferences"
Now select Preferences and the select the button "Add".
Fill up Name and Location values with the following
Name:BlackBerry Java Plug-in Update Site, Value: "http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipseUpdate/3.6/java"
Select OK.
That's it!
I want an Eclipse Java EE plugin which I can install directly from Eclipse.
I searched about it on Google and found some ones but couldn't figure out how to download them directly from Eclipse.
One plugin I found was WTP but couldn't find the location of the WTP repository that I can enter in the Eclipse's Software Update tool.
I am using Eclipse 3.4.2 (Ganymede)
I warmly suggest to install Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers which already includes the Web Tools Platform (WTP) and much more (see this page for a full comparison).
As an alternative, you can download a zip of the Web Tools from here or install it via Update Manager using this URL:
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates/
If you have Eclipse Galileo you should go to Help > Install New Software. Then the list of available sites to install updates will appear. You should add the WTP plug-in to this list, for example.
To do this, click on Add and enter the name and location (you can get this from the WTP site). Then, select this plug-in and click on Finish. That's it and it's valid to all plug-ins.
when you are searching do a comprehensive search http:// in eclipse
Google search the repository containing Java EE WTP
Install the new software in your IDE, restart your IDE, right click under the project explorer view, select new, the option for creating a dynamic web project should now be available. I did it using the luna version of eclipse which dose not have the default and now have the option.
Use
help---install new software--type http://findbugs.cs.umd.edu/eclipse
And go from there
