How to create a UI in eclipse? - eclipse

I have downloaded eclipse i'm trying to create a form in eclipse, where i can see the tools with texbox, button..etc in eclipse ? please help me to get the toolkit. I used the toolkit in Visual Studio, is there any toolkit for eclipse? I'm using Eclipse Indigo, in vista system.

For desktop apps (Swing or Eclipse SWT), there's WindowBuilder. It's one of the core features that is included in the Eclipse for Java Developers package you can download from www.eclipse.org. If you downloaded a different Eclipse package, use Help > Install New Software to install WindowBuilder into your Eclipse.
For web pages, the Eclipse for Java EE Developers package includes a Web Page Editor with source view and "design" view. Design View has a palette of components that you can drag and drop to construct a page.

Eclipse application - adding a python console plugin

I'm developing an eclipse application in Linux and I'm fairly new to eclipse RCP.
My application is built from already existing plugins, such as eclipse's project explorer, etc.
I'd like to add the pydev python console as a plugin to my application.
I know that adding plugins to an eclipse application is done through the extensions tab on MANIFEST.MF but I can't find any examples on google on adding the pydev console.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Dolev.

Eclipse cannot open java me perspective

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?

GWT Wizards are not showing in the eclipse Wizards menu

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?
Google docs
My System
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
The Eclipse Project Updates http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.7 Enabled
Try this:

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

Eclipse web.xml editor

I have Helios Service Release 2 installed with WTP tools. I created a simple dynamic web project. When I open web.xml, which opens with default XML editor, it shows only two tabs:Design(Standard XML tab) & Source.
When I worked with Rational Software Architect in past, it opened web.xml with tabs like 'Servlet', 'References' so on to let you easily edit various parts of web.xml in visual point & click manner.
Is this possible with Eclipse?
btw, I tried 'Open with' menu option but couldn't find appropriate editor for web.xml
Thanks
You can install JBoss tools through Eclipse marketplace to have a complete web.xml editor. You don't have to install all the plugins. In my case I just installed the "Context and Dependency Injection Tools"
Eclipse currently does not have this functionality. IBM did not donate this part of the tooling from Rational Software Artifact when it seeded Eclipse Web Tools Project.
Note that there is an effort that is just getting started to implement these editors at Eclipse, but you are not going to be able to use the fruit of that work until Juno release in the Summer of 2012.
In the meantime, you will need to use plain XML editor or seek third-party solutions, such as MyEclipse. Note that MyEclipse is not compatible with Eclipse WTP. It is separate tooling stack for web app development.

Eclipse Java EE plugin

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.

And go from there
