Running Eclipse on Mac OS X Lion - eclipse

Eclipse runs fine, but I lost the error/warning/todo vertical bar on the right (right next to the new scroll bar). Does anyone has the same problem? Thanks!

Same, ahhhh how do you fix this, SOOO annoying
Figured it out, if you go to system preferences > general > click the "when scrolling" button, to only show the scroll bar when scrolling it fixes it. Mine was previously on "always". I restarted eclipse and it shows the errors/warning message etc now.

Now that the Eclipse team fixed the issue, you can also go to "Help" > "Check for updates" and install the platform updates. It fixed the issue without having to change the MacOS Scrollbar settings for me.

Cant find debug toolbar in vs code

using latest version of vs code, i cant see the debug toolbar.
Version: 1.66.2
i've tried changing it in the settings from floating to docked to hidden and back to floating, restarted the program and i still cant see it.
You should press this combination of key : CTRL+Shift+Y
I think ive sorted it. the toolbar only appears if debugging is in process. it disappears when it has stopped. I thought it stayed there all the time.
For whoever still struggles with the problem, the problem for me was that the "Run and Debug" menu was unchecked for some reason.
Right-click on the menu bar and check it.
Right Click on Menu bar

Eclipse in Ubuntu starting without any window visible (only menu bar)

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and Eclipse Kepler. Since yesterday I've been experiencing a strange issue: when I open up Eclipse, all that I'm seeing is the menu bar on the upper Ubuntu bar. No code editor, window whatsoever.
In order to see a window I go to Window -> New window, but this is just a workaround. It starts up a new window with no preferences set, no last edited files etc. Moreover it shows that I have 2 Eclipse windows opened, while I can only see 1.
Any ideas on how to fix that?
I agree with Gorka, it looks like it was related with window size.
Here my solution (worked for me on Ubuntu 14.04):
1) Switch to Eclipse so that menu header is visible (you can use Alt+Tab or click on Eclipse icon in the list of applications)
2) Press Ctrl+Super+ArrowUp (Super=Windows button usually between Ctrl and Alt)
This combination maximizes active window, so it restores Eclipse to full screen.
Go to Window -> Show Toolbar. That should fix your issue.
Edit: Also try Window -> Close All Perspectives. Now, Window -> Open Perspective -> Other... and select Java (default).
I had exactly the same problem, the only solution I could find was to download the newest Eclipse version from www.eclipse.org instead of from the Ubuntu repository.
I had the same issue and I've found out what was happening:
The problem was that the size of the eclipse window had been reduced to the minimum, see my desktop in http://i.imgur.com/lTlgOvb.jpg and notice the small vertical line in the top-left corner. This small line is the eclipse window, so just go with the cursor and make the it bigger.
I had exactly the same problem happening on only one workspace I had setup within Eclipse. I pressed some keyboard shortcut to make it happen but didn't know what that shortcut was (fat fingers meant I pressed a key I didn't mean to) and now can't reverse it! All other workspaces loaded up fine.
Managed to resolve it by Clicking on Window -> New Window!
I was having the same issue and got to fix it by just maximizing the windows (window button + up arrow key).. lol
stupid, but worked.

Eclipse Debug View pops up on a breakpoint in full screen mode

I just got Eclipse Kepler a couple of days ago - pretty nice! Unfortunately the Debug view gets focused while encountering a break point in full screen mode. Afterwards I need to click somewhere to make it disappear.
I made a screen shot:
Can this be customized? I wasn't able to find anything in the preferences. I also had the same issue with the Console view but these two nice buttons made it work.
Thank you!
Yes, you can disable using a setting, from eclipse Window-> Preferences -> Run/Debug -> uncheck Activate the debug view when a breakpoint is hit.

Error indicators in file margin in eclipse indigo

I just switched to eclipse indigo and mac osx lion. Everything works fine but errors don't show up in the right file margin like they did in past versions. The code is being built and squiglies are showing up on errors but not in the right file margin. How do I set those errors to show up?
Open Preferences, select General/Editors/Text editors/Annotations, and make sure that the errors/warnings are selected to be displayed in the Vertical and Overview rulers.
From Running Eclipse on Mac OS X Lion: 'Figured it out, if you go to system preferences > general > click the "when scrolling" button, to only show the scroll bar when scrolling it fixes it. Mine was previously on "always". I restarted eclipse and it shows the errors/warning message etc now.'

Overview bar in Eclipse Classic

I am having a strange problem with Eclipse Classic Indigo where I cannot see the overview bar. I did some searching and could not find any option to enable or disable it, but it appears to be disabled in my Eclipse. I was wondering if anyone had a fix for this?
DOH! New Mac User having a windows moment -- I have the answer to this question. I was looking for the top menu bar INSIDE the eclipse dialog (i.e. just above the icons) but like everything else mac it locates the top menu bar outside the actual dialog at the top of your monitor view.
Hope this helps someone else :)
