In installing PyDev in eclipse, I need to go to window > preferences > pydev . . .
But when I click on Window, there is no preferences option, and I can't find it elsewhere.
Any ideas?
Preferences is under the Eclipse menu on Mac OS X (contrary to Windows / Linux where its in the Window menu).
Go to "Eclipse" on menu bar an then select "Preferences", or just key in CMD+,
In OS X you can generally get to the preferences using Command + , (works for me with Eclipse on Snow Leopard).
For Spring-Tool-Suite also it is same as Eclipse in MacOS.
On your OSX, if you still can not find Preference under Window, use the Search under Help to get to it or you can find it under Eclipse just beside the Apple logo.
You can find it under Eclipse->Prefrences

Options in the eclipse menu drop down are disabled like shown below.
Couldn't find a way to enable them. Is there any way other than using new eclipse instance.
I think this issue can be solved with the following:
Quit eclipse.
Open your Terminal.
Navigate to Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS (cd Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS).
Run ./eclipse -nl en.
Update to Eclipse Oxygen.1a (where this bug is fixed): Help > Check for Updates.

For MacOS High Sierra 13.1 , this workaround works. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=520176#c152
1. Find java.home used by your Eclipse (look for java.home in "About Eclipse" > "Installation Details" > "Configuration")
2. If your java.home is, for example, /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_112.jdk/Contents/Home/jre , go to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_112.jdk/Contents/Home and create the subfolders Resources/English.lproj
3. Copy the DefaultApp.nib file from a 10.13 or older Mac to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_112.jdk/Contents/Home/Resources/English.lproj (DefaultApp.nib can be found under /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Resources/en.lproj or /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Resources/English.lproj on Mac OS version < 10.13.1)
For the macos versions before 10.13.1, https://www.eclipse.org/org/press-release/20170925criticalbug.php this should work
I installed Eclemma on Eclipse Neon and the guide says I should be able to find an icon on the toolbar like above. However, I cannot find it and I searched online about this problem and saw some people having trouble with it. But I haven't found a solution to it..
I uninstalled and re-installed Eclemma but I still can't find the icon.
I’ve just had the same problem and a web search led me to this page. If you are using Windows 7 and Eclipse Neon, I found I could get the coverage button to appear (and work) if I:
Run Eclipse as administrator (right click and look for the menu item)
Install Eclemma as normal.
If prompted to restart Eclipse, click on “no”.
Manually close Eclipse
Run Eclipse again as administrator.
From eclipse open Window > Perspective > Customize Perspective
Go to "Action Set Availability" tab
In the "Available action sets" pane check "Java Code Coverage" checkbox
Click Ok
Use the keys CTRL + SHFT + F11! It worked on my windows 10.
I have installed Eclipse Mars and have also installed the Jboss Tools from the eclipse marketplace.
My issue is that after installing the JBoss tools, I seem to have a set of controls for the server in my menu bar, that have been created in the Early Learning Centre style. I've tried the Window > Perspective > Customize Perspective menu option, but still I am left with this awful menu. Does anyone know how to stop it from showing on my toolbar?
Ok, After some more specific searching, I found the answer at this link:
https://developer.jboss.org/thread/263510?start=0&tstart=0
specifically
"To disable the new Launch Bar, select Window > Preferences >
Run/Debug > Launching > Launch Bar > uncheck [ ] Enable the Launch
Bar."
and it works a charm!
