I am searching for an Eclipse plugin which supports drag and drop functionality to build a GUI
and
supports immediate and automatic embedding within a MVC (model view controller) structure. Any ideas?
WindowBuilder is free, simple and not cumbersome. It also supports binding and synchronization of model pojo objects taking some of the MVC pains away.
I find it quite pleasant to work with as it does not places itself at toe forefront like most other similar editors will. It does not embed strange files that serve no other purposes than to serve the editor, rather it uses directly the java source file as it's backing persistence and it does so in a very clean way compared to say visual Studio with an MFC project.
It does have some quirks though, especially with Maven as some of the dependencies are sometimes hard to find. Personnaly I package them as a single jar and added it dynamically to the build through some clever hacks inspired largely by other members of the present community :-)
Give it a try, may not be the uber cadillac with shiny chromed everything but it does work well and stays out of the way when you don't need it.

I am developing a development tool for a new language. I can't say the details of the language because the organization applied for patent. I am new to eclipse and plugin development. how can I create a user interface which is similar to cdt or jdt. The first module I have to complete is UI development. Please help me to find some good source which give the jdt ui code.
now i need to change file -> new . when click on new it should give the option to create any type of file i.e. user defined file also can create
If you're new to plugin development, I'd strongly recommend taking a look at Xtext:
http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/
It is exactly what you are searching for: you give it the BNF of your language, and it gives you an Eclipse build with an editor, syntax highlight, content assist, validation & quick fixes, outlines, etc. (Of course, this is a bit simplified description but that's the idea behind the project.)
What you are asking for is very complex and quite a big task. I think you should start by creating a custom editor with syntax highlighting for your new language. This question may help you get started.

I already have some sort of a prototype of Durandal app, but now I need to add functionality to it which requires backend. I am told to go with Java, but then how do I import the Durandal app into Eclipse? Eclipse and durandal have their own project structures and they're everything but the same... Is trying to move the whole thing into Eclipse even a good idea? If no, what are the alternatives?
First of all, you don't need to have a single project for both the Java back-end and the Durandal front-end. You could have 2 different projects (and use Eclipse of the back-end, with whatever editor/ide you are already using for the front-end.
You can use Eclipse for both (I personally do). There's two approaches I've used:
(a) Have two separate projects.
In this case one project would be a Java project and the other the Durandal project. The Durandal project could be a "Static Web" project (if you have web tools plugins installed) where you copy all Durandal files into the "WebContent" folder, or it could be a simple project. Since you won't be building from within Eclipse, it doesn't really matter.
(b) Have a common project.
In this case you would create a Java project, then inside it use New->Folder to create a folder for your Durandal content (e.g. webclient) and copy all your Durandal stuff in there.
As long as you have the Web Developer Tools plugins installed, you will be able to used the HTML/Javascript editors of Eclipse, regardless of which approach is used.

We have two separate tags:
https://stackoverflow.com/tags/oxygene/info
https://stackoverflow.com/tags/delphi-prism/info
They read like those are different products, more so like Prism is a superset of Oxygen and the latter is "just compiler" and Prism to Oxygene is like Lazarus to FPC.
Maybe that was the picture somewhen. But looking at Prism withdrawal, i wonder if there still are some things in Prism that are missed from Oxygene ?
If not, then there is probably a time to make oxygene the One True Tag and make delphi-prism just an alias to Oxygene ?
We're in the process of getting the two tags merged, yes. fwiw, Prism is not and never has been a super-set to Oxygene. Prism is/was the exact same thing as Oxygene for .NET.
(that said, this discussion would really belong on meta?)
It is actually the other way around. Prism was just the .NET "flavor" of the Oxygene compiler. Oxygene includes everything that Prism did, plus a whole lot more. Oxygene also includes the Java flavor (for Android development) as well as the soon to be released "Cocoa" edition which is currently code named "Nougat" (for Mac and iOS development).
When Delphi Prism was first released there was some existing .NET resources that were bundled with it, but they deprecated and removed shortly after. Most of the Delphi Prism and Prism releases were solely a subset of Oxygene.
The difference you read in the descriptions comes down to branding. Technically there is none.
In an unrelated note, if you find yourself doing both Oxygene for .NET and Delphi development then you should check out Hydra too.

Are there any open source projects any of you would recommend to follow or contribute toward, including those already documented among the zf contributors, to add zend framework scaffolding of crud functionality for rapid development as found in most competitors frameworks?
As a contributor of not only the language and framework, but also as a user of zf on a daily basis, I know this is a topic of interest and I feel professional developers like you would find here would have something to contribute toward my question and finding a library that is underway that can be contributed to.
Still pointing out one Repo that generates a new module with folder structure, config and module class
Inforbiro / ZF2-Code-Generator
While personally i feel this to be more troublesome than doing it by hand, it's a first step only. Though it appears development already has stopped, for now.
If ever (and i'm pretty sure) there will be a ZF2-Tool, you'll find it at the zf-commons repository

Sorry, apparently this is not an appropriate question to ask, i've learned, at stackoverflow. Didn't realize this kind of question wasn't allowed since it doesn't have code I guess.

Just recently I stumbled upon the awe6 game framework for Haxe and I want to give it a try, but the only "tutorial" on the site is a prebuilt FlashDevelop project template that also appears to be quite complex already.
I've tried to dissect the template but some things are quite weird and I can't figure out why the template seems to work, so I'd rather prefer a tutorial (or at least a very simple "Hello World" example) that sets everything up and runs without assuming a specific IDE. I've also tried Google but almost all of the results were leading back to the FlashDevelop template.
Are there any tutorials/examples/simple demos with source code for awe6 that are not burried in a IDE specific template and are step-by-step and/or otherwise easy to understand?
We are working on a suite of tutorials (and videos). In the meanwhile please see this very simple Hello World example which leads on to the templates (now also available as Linux bash scripts):

This isn't exactly an answer, but the framework's author Rob Fell did a presentation a few weeks ago at the WWX conference:

Valerie Elimak's presentation has a couple of good examples http://workshops.elimak.com/awe6june12/
