I am trying to setup Eclipse on Ubuntu 10.04. I have installed Eclipse SDK 3.5.2 from the Synaptic Package manager.
The problem is, Eclipse is not giving me an option to create Java or Dynamic Web Projects. It also does not properly recognize the projects that I import (shows source folders but not packages).
Do I have the right version of Eclipse or do I need to install anything besides this.
Please note that I already have Sun's JVM set as the default for my system. Have been trying for a while and have searched everywhere with no luck, any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
The version packaged in Ubuntu is a light version for Java SE development (i.e. standalone java application). If you want to create web projects, you need a version with a lot more plugins. Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers
I guess you need Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.. Here it is.

I'm learning Haskell and I need to install Haskell plugin on Eclipse.
I have first installed Eclipse Kepler and then installed the Haskell plugin from http://eclipsefp.sf.net/updates. The plugin installation went ok but the Haskell perspective is not visible at Window > Open Perspective > Other. It's visible at Help > Installation Details, though.
I've come across similar problem at this post:
Plugins installed on Eclipse not visible
I've applied all suggestions: I've started Eclipse as root, I've changed the installation path from /Applications to ~/, I've given write access to plugins folder, no luck.
I've erased Eclipse Kepler and installed Luna, still no luck.
I've updated the JRE to Java SE 7 [1.7.0_71] and edited the Java JRE section at Eclipse preferences, still no luck.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
My OS X Lion 10.7.4 64bit
I've solved it. The problem seems to stem from multiple java versions installed on Lion.
I've come across this post salesforce Eclipse plugin and there I noticed that multiple Java versions on one system might cause trouble on plugins and in case of saleforce, that was causing trouble on Eclipse plugin or perspective.
Then I've taken a second look at Haskell's Eclipse plugin page Haskell Eclipse plugin and there I saw the java version 7 was emphasized.
So I reckoned that some java version mismatch might be causing Eclipse not to display the Haskell plugin. Btw, my installing the latest (1.7.0_72) version of java didn't change any possibel version mismatch on my Mac OS X, because though I successfully installed 1.7.0_72 version (using the file jdk-7u72-macosx-x64.dmg which I downloaded from oracle.com), the $ javac -version still returned 1.6.0_29.
Then I've found this post multiple java installations on mac os x and added the following line to eclipse.ini
-vm
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_72.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java
before -vmargs, and that finally solved the problem. Now the Haskell plugin and perspective comes up. That's fine.
I installed Eclipse Platform Version: 3.7.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. My Ubuntu Software Center shows that Eclipse Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE (eclipse 3.7.2-1) is installed. Also Eclipse Integrated Development is also installed (eclipse-platform 3.7.2-1). However when I launch Eclipse, I am not able to get a Java perspective and not able to create a Java project. When I click on Open Perspective: I see CVS Repository Exploring, Debug, Resource (default) and Team Synchronizing. Thanks in advance.
You can click open perspective > others and find Java perspective. please refer this picture:
First, you should not install Eclipse from any Linux repository or package manager; just download it directly from the Eclipse web site. Also make sure you're using the Oracle JDK, not gcj. There are many problem reported with running Eclipse under gcj. To specify the JVM for Eclipse to run in, use eclipse.ini
Second, what you have is the Eclipse Platform, which does not include any IDE features; it's just the base platform on which Eclipse is built (another problem with getting Eclipse from a linux repo is that you don't really know what they've packaged and delivered to you). For Java development, you probably want the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers or Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers packages from the downloads page.
Close Eclipse and rename the .eclipse directory in your home directory with another name, for example .eclipseSAVE.
Restart Eclipse and in perspective you should find Java.
I downloaded Eclipse plain Java version and now I realize that I need of Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers distribution.
I'm new in Eclipse world and I would to know if it is possible (and how) to install Java EE plugins via Eclipse.
There is a thread in ServerFault that shows how to install the Java EE pluggins for Eclipse Java EE plugin for Eclipse IDE
Additionally you can:
Help -> Install new software.
Pick the Mars (or the version you have downloaded such as Luna, Kepler, etc) repository
At the bottom there are install options Java EE Development
To get all of the features of the Java EE edition of Eclipse, there are several packages that need to be installed. This page lists all of the packages that are included in the current Java EE version of Eclipse. If you want all of the features of the Eclipse for Java EE developers, go to Help --> Install New Software..., select the update site for your version (e.g. Kepler) from the dropdown menu, and select the checkbox for each item listed on the above page that is not already installed.
You'll probably find the 'getting started guides' here helpful.
You probably will need to download the plug-in. The easiest way to do this would be to:
go to Help -> Install new software.
Pick the Galileo(Change accordingly) repository
All the way at the bottom there are install options for 'Web, XML, and JaveEE Development
... also this is better suited for SO
follow this
Eclipse 3.3 or earlier, it is NOT possible to upgrade the Eclipse platform itself, only its features. So, you could for example upgrade the CVS feature or the PDE feature from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1, but not eclipse.exe itself.
and
Upgrading other features (like CDT, PDT, WTP...) can be done without the need to download a new platform binary, but because many projects align very closely (eg., the Eclipse 3.2 / Callisto or Eclipse 3.3 / Europa release trains) you will likely need to upgrade the Eclipse platform as well.
I decided to take a look at Clojure and thought the best and easiest method for me would be to use Netbeans with the Enclojure plugin as I didn't want to have to learn Emacs at the same time. I installed Netbeans 6.9.1 together with the latest JDK using the bundled install (on Windows 7). All went smoothly. I then followed the instructions at http://www.enclojure.org/gettingstarted for installing the enclojure plugin.
When creating a new Clojure application I get the following and see no project files :
java.io.IOException: Could not connect to URL nbresloc:/org/enclojure/ide/templates/project/ClojureProjectTemplate-1.1-distribution.zip. No such resource was found.
Maven is working using mvn --version
I have installed on both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 (same result).
I have looked on the Enclojure forum and there is a recent open thread for this issue, but it is not solved by anybody presently.
I have Java SE enabled in Netbeans
I have tried enabling the different platform versions of Clojure, 1.0.0, 1.1.0, etc..
The REPL seems to be working happily in Netbeans : (printf "hello") hellonill
I did try ClojureBox on Windows 7, but again that's Emacs, but emacs failed to start the server and hung there and became totally unresponsive.
I come from a .Net background (not Java) so my knowledge of the Java environment is somewhat lacking. My reason for looking at Clojure and not Java.
I am new to Netbeans
If you're interested in a working Maven pom, here is one I've used with Enclojure successfully:
http://puredanger.com/techfiles/100624/pom.xml
There are some project settings you'll need to change and a few dependencies to remove but it might be a good start. In general, I usually create the pom first and then just import the project into NetBeans rather than using the NetBeans options to create projects.
By the way, the REPL work in Enclojure has been split and is coming soon to the Eclipse plugin Counterclockwise.
I had written a small post on it on my blog.
Anyways here is the procedure:
On searching realized that this is a common problem for installing it on > Netbeans 7.. But with some manual tweeks managed to install it. Here are the instructions to install on Netbeans 7. plus:
Install Netbeans 7. You need only the Java SE version.
First Run of Netbeans after installation. Activate feature Java SE
Activate features is on the Start page or from Tools,->Plugins>Installed, click ‘Activate next to the Java SE support
Install Maven: It is HIGHLY recommended that you install maven: http://maven.apache.org/download.html
Go to the Netbeans->Preferences, click on the Miscellaneous tab and make sure the External Maven Home path is pointed to your maven install
Download the EnClojure 1.5 version from here. If you want to manually build, you can do that by following the instructions from here.
After downloading the file, In Netbeans: Goto:- Tools ->Plugins->Downloaded->Add Plugins->Downloaded
Then browse to the downloaded file. Later install by clicking at the “install : button.
Restart and you are on the go.
Visit here to build and run hello world project.Basically building the EnClojure 1.5 manually is the tough job. I hope above was useful.
I installed Eclipse using Synaptic Package Manager (Ubuntu 9.10).
However, my Eclipse does not have any HTML template (in New dialog) or JSP template.
How can I fix it so that I will have some HTML and JSP templates overthere?
Fetch Eclipse plugin from http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo and select Web Developments stuffs solve the problem.
I do not recommend to install Eclipse from the ubuntu repository but to install it manually instead (and grab Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers). Just be sure to check this answer to fix the "click problem" due to a bug with Eclipse 3.5 and GTK+ 2.8.
Update: The reasons to prefer a manual install are explained in EclipseIDE. First, there is no guarantee to find the most recent of Eclipse in the repository (in Ubuntu 9.04, the packaged version of Eclipse was totally outdated). Second, even if you find an up-to-date version (like for Ubuntu 9.10), you'll need to run Eclipse as root to install plugins not available in Package Manager - why did they start to package plugin, this is just crazy - which is not a good idea. User mode installation solves this problem.
You can install eclipse-wtp-webtools package for static html files. I can't find one for jsp though.
