Flash Builder 4 + Red5 IDE Plugin - eclipse

Anybody know how to install Red5 IDE Plugin for Adobe Flash Builder 4?
Adobe Flash builder 4 comes with an integrated installation of Eclipse, but If I follow the instructions on Red5 site I get:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Red5 Feature 0.2.0 (org.red5.feature.feature.group 0.2.0)
Missing requirement: Red5 Feature 0.2.0 (org.red5.feature.feature.group 0.2.0) requires 'org.eclipse.jst.server.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found
I have tried everywhere but can't find any help.
Thanks in advance.
Answer
Flash Bulder 4 has Eclipse Galileo as integrated IDE, in order to make Red5 Plugin work first you have to install Eclipse Web Tools Platform (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo/) and then you can install Red5 IDE Plugin.

Unfortunately the flash builder is not built on top of a full blown eclipse (it does not make sense to do so.), So you need to install the server components, if you are envisioning running servers from eclipse. The easiest way to do this is to install the all-in-one package from eclipse and then install the Flash builder plugin or you could try installing WTP (Web Tool Platform) tools in your existing flash builder.

Flashbuilder is available in two flavours. Standalone or as a eclipse plugin. I am currently doing all my flashbuilder plugin's(Currently working on a PureMVC plugin and need beta testers) development using eclipse indigo and flashbuilder 4.0(the plugin version) without any problem.
Short answer is :)
Just install the eclipse environment you want and then install the flashbuilder plugin..
Should work like a charm.

Are you installing plugins using the eclipse marketplace? If you're installing plugins by manually entering repositories make sure they have a plugin that's compatible with your version of eclipse.
As Glenn noted, you need to be very careful with versions here.
It is best to install any ecplise pulgin using an update site. For Eclipse 3.7, you would use http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7 for the GWT update site.
If you were to do a manual install, then make sure to download the correct archive, in your case 3.7, listed here: https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-from-zip
If the installation is giving you trouble, try restarting Eclipse and run it as administrator. This could be the case if Eclipse is installed in a shared or system directory (e.g. "Program Files").
If you have selected the Android development kit part of the GPE then you need to separately install the Android SDK. But you don't need that if you are only doing GWT development. Just uncheck that.

Installing eclypse plugin into flash builder 4.6

I am running the stand alone version of Flash builder. what I am wanting to do is to install an eclipse plugin into it. Is this possible or is it only possible if I install flash builder as an eclipse plugin?
Yes, you definitely can install eclipse plugins into Flash Builder 4.6. The download system works exactly like Eclipse Indigo (which I believe Builder is built upon). This means you can install new software and go to the various Marketplaces in order to get software to download. Everything works exactly as t would with a "regular" eclipse installation (including the annoying dependency messages, which you will tend to get more of because Builder is not a complete Eclipse implementation!).
It does work, though.

Cannot complete installing Google Plugin for eclipse

I am trying to install the Google Plugin in eclipse but I get the follwoing error:

Please help
The App Engine documentation is old, that is the problem. There are newer releases of the API:
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.3
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.4
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.5
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.6
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.2
Try the one that suits your IDE.
I had the same problem and finally found the solution. Hope it works for you too.
Follow these steps and then try to install the plugin again.
Select Help > Install New Software...
Select the Helios update site in the Work with dropdown. If it's not there, you can enter the URL directly: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios
Install Helios > Web, XML, and Java EE Development > Eclipse Web Developer Tools.
Go to About / Install New Software... and enter this URL: http://download.eclipse.org/mylyn/releases/latest
After the list populates, select MyLyn SDKs and Frameworks / MyLyn Commons. Once that plug-in installs, restart Eclipse and then the Google App Engine plug-in should install.
When you are on the Available Software screen, after having selected the software you want to install, before you click next, if you check the box "Contact all update sites during install to find required software." then eclipse will automatically resolve and install the needed plugins for you.
I got the same error and looking at the messages indicated that it was due to a conflict between Java EE IDE and Google plugin fo different eclipse runtimes ( 3.6 and 3.5).
So I upgraded the Java EE IDE to the latest version available and that solved the problem.
I found out that ADT-Bundle whose version is eclipse 4.2 has this issue of installing google plugin and when I downloaded eclipse and Android SDK separately and connected them together. It solved the problem. Google plugin installation worked super fine then
Check to see the "type" of Eclipse you are using. I was using the main version of Luna 4.4.2 and having this problem. I then switched to the "Java EE" type of Eclipse, and installed the Google Plugin and AppEngine with no issues. I believe it is because the "Java EE" type comes with WTP.

Choosing eclipse version for installing Flash Builder 4 plugin

I need to choose a version of eclipse to install the Flash Builder 4 plugin on.
What versions of eclipse are most suitable for the plugin?
Are there any known problems with the latest version? (currently 3.6.1 I believe)
Are there any officially supported versions? / unsupported versions?
I use the latest Eclipse release (Helios 3.6.1) with the Flash Builder 4 plugin. I find Flash Builder 4 to be a little flaky in general, but nothing to stop me delivering my software.
I develop Flex on top of Java, which is why I want the latest version of Eclipse. I develop both Flex and Java in the same Eclipse workspace.
You can install the stand alone, which has eclipse in it.
I use this one and I just install all my plugins in the stand alone.
Hope that helps.
From the installation manual:
Install Flash Builder 4 Plug-in on
Windows: NOTE: Flash Builder 4 is
only supported on Eclipse 3.4 or
3.5. CAUTION: Do not install the plug-in version of Flash Builder 4
into a copy of Eclipse that is already
hosting Flex Builder 3 plug-in. If you
want to continue running Flex Builder
3 plug-in, download a new copy of
Eclipse and use that when installing
Flash Builder 4 plug-in, or choose
bundled Eclipse option in the
installer. In addition, be sure to use
separate Eclipse workspaces for each
installation.

Newbie setting up eclipse. How do I add java IDE to a c++/c packaged version of eclipse

I'm new to eclipse, perfer netbeans actually, but android tutorials use eclipse.
The eclipse website is a mess and just confuses me. What projects do I need to install to have the same functionality as the eclipse package for java devs.
Any help is much appreciated.
I would recommend downloading a classic package (bottom of the page). Or you could add JDT to your version.
You can use the EPP Packages Repository in Eclipse to install the EPP Java Package.
It's the same package as proposed on the Eclipse Download page but it will download only the required files.
The Update site URL for EPP Packages for Galileo is :
