How do I build and install a plugin for KDevelop? - plugins

In particular, I am trying to install kdev-control-flow-graph
I have managed to clone the source from git, cmake the source to build a kdevcontrolflowgraphview.so installed to /usr/local/lib, but when I restart kdevelop, I can find no sign of the plugin!
Under the Loaded Plugins window, it doesn't show up, and I can't seem to find a way to tell it about the existence of the new plug-in.
I am running KDevelop Version 4.2.3 using KDE Development Platform 4.7.2 on Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure that "/usr/local/lib" is in your KDEDIRS var, and run "kbuildsyscocoa4 --noincremental"
If that doesn't work, perhaps the plugin's .desktop file needs to have its version modified.
Also note that you aren't running KDE Development Platform 4.7.2 because that doesn't exist (you probably mean KDE 4.7.2), you should be running KDevplatform 1.2.3.

Eclipse on Mac doesn't allow to downgrade (E)Git

I have updated my Eclipse for Committers to version 2021-12 (For MacOS), and found out that the default Git-plugin version installed is 6.0. Since Git deprecated some features who are still crucial to me, i tried to downgrade Git version to 5.11 (the last version i know that has the requested features).
But apparently Eclipse doesn't allow to uninstall any of it's Git add-ons, which is the first step in the downgrading process.
I tried to uninstall from different menu paths, but they all lead to failure. I also tried that with "Eclipse for Java developers" (non-committers), and with older versions of Eclipse, without success.
Does anyone know what can i do?
Thanks.
Like it says in the dialog, the Git Integration is required by something else you have installed. There's little unique about the "Eclipse for Committers" download, meaning if you can't uninstall something you want to uninstall, you can still start from the bare basics and then install more into it. You should start with an SDK download from https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/ and then add the versions of software you actually want to it.

eclipse is not installing at all

I've installed jdk-8u65-windows-i586.exe and downloaded the latest version of Eclipse IDE.
When I double click on the eclipse-inst-win31.exe absolutely nothing happens.
MY OS is Windows Vista.
How can I resolve this problem?
Make sure you have a working java sdk in java_home variable - type java - version in cmd prompt
If you don't, reinstall java sdk and eclipse it should start.
Instead of using the Eclipse installer (which is still a rather new part of the Eclipse downloads), just take one of the complete distributions (scroll down below the installer on the download page).
While the installer first needs to download additional pieces from the Internet, those distributions are ready to start developing.

Installing Eclipse using MacPorts

I'm learning my way around MacPorts, so I've been trying to use it to install all kinds of things. I noticed it has a port for Eclipse, so I installed it using
sudo port install eclipse-ecj32
And that installed the port and all its dependencies. But I have no clue what to do now! I don't see it installed in my LaunchPad anywhere.
Sooooo... what do I do? How do I make eclipse run?
Thanks!
Eclipse is not available via MacPorts. Likely this is because a native version is available to download for Mac.
Thats not the actual IDE, thats the byte-code compiler... So its not a GUI application, its just a jar of the compiler i believe.

A good Eclipse for PHP in Ubuntu 11.10 tutorial

Well I´m just moving in to Linux, so I´m using Ubuntu, I installed Ubuntu 11.10, so I was wondering if anyone can give me a hand on how to install succesfuly Eclipse to develope in PHP, I used to use Eclipse Helios (Windows 7), but helios is not inside Ubuntu´s repository, so I guess I´ll have to try it manually. Still prefer to download it from repository not so good with command lines.
Anyone knows a good tutorial?, I´m a newbie in linux so please be very descriptive.
This is an older thread so don't know whether this is still helpfull. Why do you need helios? If you go to the help -> install new software in eclipse then select indigo update site end search for pdt (php development kit). Then install and restart afterwards and their you have a php-perspective with pretty much everything you will need.
Welcome to ubuntu. Their forums are very good as well. To get started you should always use Synaptic or Aptitude APT to get and install packages (software) in Ubuntu. That way the system knows and tracks release and upgrade info.
So open Synaptic and search for Eclipse.. Check it "Marked for Installation" and apply it. It will then install the Eclipse distro for your release. From there it is the same as windows in terms of configuring and installing plug-ins, etc.. It will be installed in "Applications -> Programming"
There is also a Software Center in Ubuntu that may also have Eclipse and other dev tools. You may also need to install "server headers" in you Ubuntu environment to get the dev-tools. I am not sure in 11.10

only shows php and not the other languages in netbeans 6.9?

i have installed the latest netbeans 6.9 rc2 for all languages, but i only see the php tab when i use it.
prior to this version i had 6.9 beta for only php, but i have deleted that folder.
maybe the settings are still there, so it only shows php?
how can i clean everything so that it shows all other languages?
thanks
You can check and see which plugins are installed in Netbeans in Tools > Plugins.
They might be installed, but not enabled.
If you really get stuck you might still have the old netbeans user directory, with just the PHP plugins installed as your userdir.
You can delete this directory to get a clean install of netbeans.
On linux you will find it in; ~/.netbeans/6.9rc2/ (version number might be different), on windows it will in your C:\Users\ or C:\Documents & Settings\ depending on your version. OSX i dont know, guess similar to linux.
