I'm installing the plugin following these istruction http://gwt-plugins.github.io/documentation/gwt-eclipse-plugin/Download.html
The installation appears to be successful (if i go on the installed plugins I can see GWT Eclipse plugin 3.0.0) , but when I have to create a new web application I don't find the button for create it. I tried to search the button in "other" too.
Eclipse version: 4.22.0
The eclipse plugin is not fully maintained right now, the recommended way for creating new GWT projects is to use a multi module archetype that separate the client from the server, there is already a good archetype to do that you can find it here tbroyer gwt archetype and follow the instructions in the readme file to check how you can run the application.
The short question, is when creating dynamic web project (1.6 jdk) I can see all file types to create but there is no option for jsp. To add to that when I check file associations there is no JSP editor to select from.
A slightly longer version is I simply want to edit JSP files, I have Juno EE version installed and it says web tools platform is installed and everything works just fine.
However while everything works, there was no *.jsp in file associations and on adding it there was no JSP editor in the list. This is an out of the box Juno EE.
So I checked installed plugins and it tells me that web tools is installed, there is an icon and a load of plugins. They are all listed under Java EE in the plugin/installation list. I even tried installing just 'java web develop tools' which lists as 'tools for working with jsp' but when I do that I get ""Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools" will be ignored because it is already installed." however I cannot uninstall it because it's part of Java EE eclipse platform. I have no other plugins installed that might have broken this, however it has taken some time to get all the settings good so I'd rather not install it all again.
So I tried to install the full WTP by hand and it said some things were already installed, but it installed others. However, still no JSP editor. Hence why I tried a dynamic web project to see if I could create JSP and it wasn't listed.
So, eclipse base install has absolutely everything (xml, html editor, java editor, all the tools) but just not JSP.
My JDK is fine as dynamic web project is not created unless you have a valid 1.6 or above.
Anyone help?
It seems your missing Eclipse web developer tools and Eclipse java web developer tools.
Help>Install new software>http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno, select appropriate items under Web,XML,Java EE
Hope this helps
In Eclipse Juno, select File/New/Other, then type in jsp in the wizard field. Select jsp file or jsp tag and there you go. Hope that helps.
Try to install Eclipse with Java EE developer.It should work.
You can go to Eclipse Market place and search for "Java EE Developer tool". On clicking it you should be able to see if your Web developer tool is selected or not. Please select that option and your issue will be resolved.
Check your path. Make sure it is pointing to at least a 1.6 version of Java. Restart Eclipse. That fixed it for me.
If you have installed every thing proper and still it is not showing JSP option while creating new .jsp file then click to the web icon on top right corner of eclipse. If it doesn't work then you need to install updated version of eclipse.
I also faced the same problem; I looked through the "Web,XML,Java EE..." installables available at under Kepler downloads:
and that brought me the New->'JSP File' context menu item.
I have installed
Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.6
Google Web Toolkit SDK 2.4.0
in my Eclipse-Helios-3.6 but cannot find the google plugin icon in my toolbar and also I'm able to find Google in Windows>>Preferences.
Operating system-Ubuntu
Well since you are able to see google in windows preferences i am assuming that the installation did work. Have you tried creating a new GWT Project. The GWT button might not show if the project is wrong.
Do not use the pre-packaged Eclipse in Ubuntu (that version is often quite outdated). Get a current version from the Eclipse website instead and install it in a directory that you like (thereby avoiding problems with the Eclipse update mechanism, which doesn't fit the Linux directory guidelines very well).
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/
I have just installed eclipse helios release 2. But I don't see there is any dynamic web project. this is Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers I have installed. Is there something missing in this eclipse version. please let me know. it is really needed
Thanks

Make sure you're looking in the right spot- a new dynamic web project can be created under "New>Other", then in the dialog selecting "Web>Dynamic Web Project". If it's not there, then you might want to try re-installing eclipse (you have the right version).
