Eclipse for BlackBerry, set up the Eclipse envirorment - eclipse

Hallo. I have problems by setting the Eclipse envirorment, can anybody provide me a useful step-by step instruction?

RIM now has a full-featured Eclipse plug-in for BlackBerry development, and you should use it at this point. The above answer links to an outdated guide that does not mention this plugin.

this is still not very smooth process. Check out this post, may be it will help:

Is there a beginner introduction to writing Eclipse plugins?

I have tried and failed to create to find any good tutorials on writting plugins for Eclipse and the closest I have assumed a large degree of knowledge about the internals of Eclipse.
For what it is worth I have the programming skills to write the plugin. I need help with getting it plugged into Eclipse correctly.
The best tutorial I've found is Lars Vogels Plugin tutorial. Have a look at his other other Eclipse tutorials aswell. Alot of good content there.
Maybe this could be an interesting site for you:
http://www.eclipsepluginsite.com/
It covers setting up your plugin to advanced plugin tutorials.
I personally use it all the time.

How to develop a Netbeans Platform Application in Eclipse?

For me, Eclipse is the IDE to work with when I like to develop a Java application. But I like Swing more than SWT, so I'd like to use the Netbeans Platform for my Application.
Is it possible to develop a Netbeans Platform application in Eclipse? Where can I find information about this?
You are setting out on a great endeavour, and I want to congratulate you on your decision.
With me it is just the same. I love working with MyEclipse and Pulse. To me the Eclispe JDT are still superior to what the NetBeans IDE Editor offers - though I really have to say that the NetBeans Development Team is doing well on catching up ...
Ok, I was just reminded that this is only about questions and answers, so here is the answer:
!!! YES !!! you can develop with Eclipse for NetBeans Platform !!! BUT !!! it will be painful. Using Maven can help - but you will still forfeit all the wirzards available from within NetBeans IDE eventually finding yourself writing a lot of code which could have been generated for you.
In order to stop messing up the Q&A paradigm of this site I would love to refer you the following link on Geertjan's Blog:
http://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/entry/let_s_get_that_netbeans
I frequently revisit this entry to see if there are any new thoughts. Feel free to post there. As far as I can tell this is the best information around at the moment.

Eclipse RCP - good Eclipse Forms tutorial/resource

I'm looking for resources to learn how to use effectively Eclipse forms within an Eclipse RCP application. I was trying to use the newest SWT Window Builder plugin on Indigo but building forms this way doesn't really work for me eg. cannot put anything inside expandable composite etc. (I have Swing background with Netbeans designer) and I'm new to SWT.
All I can find so far is this quite old tutorial from 2005.
Any help, point to good tutorial/book/source code sample will be highly appreciated.
I've found http://www.vogella.de/ to be invaluable.
Not much changed actually since the old 2005 tutorial so it's still very usable.
Check these out in addition too:
Eclipse Forms: New in 3.3
DeveloperWorks article on making forms Web-like
Cheers,
Max
I've also got the hint to start with vogella but after the first 2 topics I realized It's to hard to start with.
What helped me much more was to create each example/sample project and look for the source. Once you understood how all works you can lookup at vogella what you exactly need.

How to launch minimal eclipse?

This my seem a little odd but I want to start eclipse (v3.5) in the most minimal version possible. Pherhaps just the core and the ui component without anything else. I'm new to eclipse Plugin Development so I don't really know if this is possible at all?
I googled this topic but there seems to be no useful info out there. Perhaps someone can help me...
Thanks
I found the solution. On this webpage in Section 3 "Create your first RCP application". There a minimal application based on the Extensions
org.eclipse.core.runtime.apllications
org.eclipse.ui.perspectives
is created.
