I'm using Eclipse 3.7 Indigo, Java Developer IDE. I've installed Maven, RESTClient, e4HTTP. But, I do not see them in the Preferences, Views, Perspective. I've looked everywhere to figure out why and am completely lost. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a trick? Thanks... Thoroughly frustrated.
When you say you installed these products I assume you meant that you installed the plugins for those products in Eclipse and not just on your machine.
Try these troubleshooting steps:
Open the plugin registry view (Window -> Show View...) and make sure the plugins you installed are listed.
Invoke Eclipse with the -clean park. This will force Eclipse to refresh several chaches and this often fixes similar problems.
Open the Error Log view (Window -> Show View...) and click on the red X to clear the messages. Stop and start Eclipse to see if any informative or otherwise helpful messages appear in the log.

I can't seem to find a support place for PyDev, so feel free to point me towards it.
When upgrading to the latest PyDev, I get a constantly increasing memory footprint for my window manager if I go into Window -> preferences. In addition, I when I click on subsections in the preferences window, the right side doesn't refresh. There is an "Invalidate title" task in the progress tab for eclipse that never seems to end. I've tried resetting all settings, downgrading eclipse, etc. Is there a way to grab an older version of PyDev?
PyDev for Eclipse 3.8.0.201409251235
Eclipse 4.4.0 and 4.4.1
I use the C++ CDT install of eclipse and do have the dark style preferences selected (I do recall that PyDev would complain about a lack of a dark stylesheet before).
For PyDev the issue tracker has moved here. You can report your possible bug over there.
As for general support, you have chosen the right palce to come. The PyDev forum title asks everyone to go to Stackoverflow and ask with PyDev tag.
The "Invalidate Title" task seems to be meant to always run. It checks for duplicate editor names.
If you are looking for older PyDev versions, you can download them at the sourceforge project
Every question dealing with uninstalling/disabling plugins for Eclipse Juno mentions an Uninstall button but I simply can't find it and Eclipse's help for Juno is sadly no help.
Has this ability been eliminated or omitted or is it in some place different for Juno?
The Uninstall... button is available from the About Eclipse dialog. From that dialog click Installation Details and it's under the Installed Software tab. This typically is only available for features, not plugins. If you can find the appropriate feature that contains the plugins you want to eliminate, that should do the trick for you.
If you are unsure of the feature containing the plugin, you can attempt to go the Installation History tab in the Installation Details window and try to Revert to a previous version of Eclipse that didn't have the plugins.
Finally, you can always manually go into your Eclipse installation folder under the plugins directory and remove them manually. This will sometimes require that you run eclipse -clean from your command line/terminal to truly get rid of the plugin. This is probably the most error prone approach as you could cause problems with features/plugins that may depend on the removed plugins.
I am using Eclipse JUNO SR1 and installed JBoss Tools from official site.
Everything is fine except some annoying features which's causing my eclipse to perform slow
When I open Eclipse, it's showing up JBoss start up page where it's loading JBoss blog information and News and some JBoss tutorials.
They keep on progressing may be due to some firewall settings or whatever reason.
I want to disable all such useless loadings at startup of Eclipse or at any point of time.
I am aware of Eclipse startup settings. However lot of Jboss features are turned on there. What should i do to disable all such useless external informations/fetching of data.
Ok, I found it.
Go to Menu > Window > Preferences > JBoss Tools > JBoss Central and uncheck Show JBoss Central On Startup
There is an easier way to do it. On the JBoss tab, there is a wheel icon on the top right corner. Clicking on it, it shows a checkbox to disable showing this tab on start up.
Cheers.
I have Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (Indigo) and have been using it for several months.
I had many installed plugins including a SVN one and e-git.
Then one day, they just all stopped working. For example, I used to be able to commit from the Explorer (using the SVN plugin), but that option has disappeared as if it is not installed.
I have checked the installed software list and they are all present.
Is there a setting somewhere that I may have miss?
Thanks in adavnced!
Please check the error log in workspace/.metadata/.log to see if there is any warnings or errors.
Also, have you tried other perspectives, like plug-in development, or SVN.
Open eclipse
Go to Window -> Show view -> Other -> SVN
Choose new workspace and check out the project that you did
Everytime I restart my eclipse helios I see it having lost all its views, perspective and all its setting. And as I have a maven eclipse installed on it, it starts updating nexus-maven-repository-index central which seem to a decade to do its thing.
I was very happy with Galilio but I needed to work on a project that asked me to use helios or above. And I've been feeling burnt ever since I switched to Galileo.
Does eclipse helios has any incompatibilities with any of Java 6 versions. I am using jdk1.6.0_32.
Could someone please help me with these problems.
Thanks
Worst case, once you have resetup all the preference, view & perspective, do the following
Export > general > Preferences > somename.epf
next time when you open eclipse and if the preference is wiped out, then you can
Import > general >preference>somename.epf.
It doesn't fix your problem, but will get you up running...
