I need to test XMLSpy functionality in Eclipse. After I switch Eclipse to XMLSpy Perspective and QTP is runnig (record or run mode), it does not work. Could you help me?
Thanks.
Some more information would be helpful. "It does not work" is extremely vague. What does not work? Do you mean that QTP does not record anything at all? Do you mean that QTP records something, but it is incorrect? Does it record some of your test, but misses one particular control, such as a grid? Do you have the right QTP add-ins/plugins enabled to support automation with Eclipse?
Altova support does not seem to have any reference including "Quik Test Pro" issues.
However, check for other plugins (other than XmlSpy):
similar tools has been known to fail in interaction with TPTP for instance.
Check also your Error log view, and complete your question with error messages displayed at the time of the recording.

I'm forced to work with Eclipse (3.6) now, and i would like to re-use my favorite Sun keyboard with the left function block for cut/copy/paste/undo/find/etc (can't code without it ..).
So far i got it working with about every IDE/Editor i used, but NOT with eclipse. The keybinding manager simply ignores these keys.
Any hints? Has anybody got it working? I thought it might be related to Java, but i have other Java tools that work (freemind, for example).
Thanks,
Felix.
Ok, i found a workaround by installing "autokey" and defining some rules that send -C/V/X/Y/Z to the eclipse window.
But i'm still curious why Eclipse ignores these keycodes/keysyms, especially since autokey needs to be started now (and sometimes crashes).
I have an MVC2 application and use ReSharper 6.1 - I've heavily customised the Code Inspection Severity and edited what it decides to show as errors, warnings, suggestions and hints, but I cannot seem to stop it from telling me that a specific resource is missing when utilising a HTMLHelper.
So, for instance:
<img src="<%:Url.Content("~/Resources/Image12345.jpg")%>" />
I get an error on every line similar to the above telling me that the path above does not exist - which at design time it does not, but during the build process all of these views are XCOPY'd to a location which contains all of the resources, such as the images, so at the point of running the application all of this path resolution is correct. Because of working in a team of people, some of which are new to ReSharper, I wanted to exclude this error from appearing as it may cause colleagues of mine to start fiddling with something that isn't broken.
ReSharper obviously doesn't know that this isn't an issue and it has no way of knowing which is why I want to turn off this specific bit of analysis. I've found on the whole that ReSharper is massively customizable and in version 6.1 under Inspection Severity there are some new MVC options, which have proved useful - but I can see no way of turning off the inspection for this.
Anybody have any ideas?
There are few options, press ALT+ENTER.
Suppress inspection "Path Error" with comment. You can suppress whole block of code, not only each of tag.
Suppress inspection "Path Error" at all at whole project.
There is new feature of 6.1 - path mapping, but it seems broken in conjunction with MVC.
Set to ignore that specific error by:
Open Soultion Errors Window by ReSharper->Windows->Soultion Errors Window.
Right-click annoying error and select Ignore Error.
See answer for another error for more explanation.
Well - It seems that this particular type of inspection is not currently catered for. I'll see if I can request it with JetBrains and hopefully more granular MVC inspection will be included in the future.
Cheers guys
I'm a relatively new developer who uses the Force.com IDE on eclipse.
What are some things I could do to avoid this happening in the future? I heard that using Eclipse might not be the efficient way of doing things in general... but I'm very used to it.
Any hints/advice/guidance would be appreciated.
Was it a VF page that timed out? You need to figure out what's taking so long. Do you have an infinite loop, or inefficient loops that are chewing up thousands of statements executed?
Set up a log under Setup > Monitoring > Debug Logs and then run your script again. Check out the profiling and governor limit information at the bottom. It should give you an idea of where time is being spent.
If you are talking about callout then you can set higher timeout.
In Eclipse can be another type of timeout - during saving files. If you mean this then you should save file(s) one more time.
I'm working with SF for half a year and I have been using Eclipse for developing stuff. I can say that there are no problems with using it.
The issue resolved itself when I migrated to the stand-alone Force.com IDE.
Sometimes Eclipse takes a really long time to do stuff. I might tab out to another application, get distracted by web sites with names that rhyme with "flak clover show", and completely forget that I had something to pay attention to. It happens daily.
Is there any way to make Eclipse play a sound (acceptable alternative: bounce the dock icon in OS X) when a long-running tasks is completed? I'm thinking specifically of things that show up in the Progress view, like deploying to Tomcat:
With Eclipse WTP, you can enable audio feedback for several server-related events in workspace preferences / Server / Audio panel.
You can always submit a bug (which can be a feature not a real bug) to eclipse's bugzilla. It would definitely be considered.
Open source contribution does not mean you need to contribute code, you can also contribute by submitting bugs or ideas.
I'm using PyDev in Eclipse as my Python editor. It's fine in terms of feature set. Everything works fine except for one very annoying thing:
Code completion itself works fast. When I press Alt+Space, the window pops out almost instantly and all the options are there. The option at the top is selected. Then comes the trouble. The detailed description won't appear until about 5-10 seconds. All this time CPU is working at maximum load and the interface is not responding. All the processor is consumed by the Eclipse Java process (the spawned Python process seems idle). Then a yellow window pops up, and all it contains is just a Python code of a selected function/variable. All consecutive details are displayed instantly. The procedure repeats when I close the completion window (for example by accepting one of the options and asking for completion again). This drives me crazy.
I've tried so far:
creating a whole new workspace,
creating an Eclipse/PyDev project from scratch,
tweaking JVM to make sure it has loads of memory,
making sure the right JVM is chosen (the latest Oracle JVM available),
making sure Python process communicates freely with the Java instance (I read about possible problems with that, but it seems not to be the issue).
making sure all the installed plugins are up to date.
The version I use is Eclipse Helios, because the last time I checked certain extensions weren't yet ported to the latest one.
Has anyone observed a similar issue? Was anyone able to get around it? General ideas on how to debug it and file a sensible bug report possibly? Other things worth checking for.
Any workaround less drastic than turning completion off completly?
Thanks!
EDIT:
I've also noticed a problem with a similar popup window in HTML/CSS editor. It looked somewhat similar (a yellow window, with some text inside) and it also took ages to display. Don't really know if that is related, but could be.
EDIT(2):
Ok, No I've started with a fresh install of the newest Eclipse Indigo, without any additional plugins apart from PyDev and the issue remains. Seems like I'll have to look for a new IDE.
What version of Java are you using?
If you are on Windows 7, later versions of Java (I think 6+) will default to IPv6.
This is probably causing the problem as Python maybe wanting IPv4.
Anyway, since I had this problem I tried disabling
PyLint
Code Analysis
but it was still hanging.
Pal's answer about "ipv4 utilization" triggered my memory about another problem I had solved by "preferring" IPv4.
See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/guide/net/ipv6_guide/
What you want to do is to edit your eclipse.ini and add "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" in the vmargs section
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
...
-vmargs
-...
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
...
I no longer get hangs.
Is there any chance you can provide the code that's making that happen (and add it to a bug report see: http://pydev.org/about.html for links)?
I use PyDev daily with some very large projects and don't have that problem, so, it may be some specific construct or scenario in your code -- or maybe you just haven't given Eclipse enough memory (which would make the garbage collector work much more), in which case, take a look at: What are the best JVM settings for Eclipse? (in specific, raise your -Xmx flag, although you can probably use the other tips there too).
If you can't provide a reproducible scenario, the other choice would be getting a profiler (i.e.: YourKit java profiler has a 15 days free which would help in this case), running that use-case in the profiler and passing a snapshot of what's happening in this situation (if that's the case, please open a bug report at pydev.org and I can help you there).
I got this from pydev.org FAQs and it works fine for me.
When I do a code-completion, PyDev hangs, what can I do?
PyDev does most of its things in the java side, but some information can only be gotten from the python side (mainly builtins), so, in order to get that info, PyDev creates a shell and communicates with it through sockets.
The main problems when that happens are:
There's a firewall blocking the communication to the shell
In Linux, some kernels do not allow ipv4 utilization, which may make PyDev fail.
To enable it, do: echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only
The timeout to connect is too smal.
It depends upon the "Timeout to connect to shell" in the code-completion preferences (window > preferences > PyDev > Code completion)
If nothing works, please report a bug (also, check if there is anything on the error log (window > show view > PDE Runtime > Error log) and on the eclipse '.log', which is located at the .metadata folder of the workspace location.
