Coding with tools only downloadable in Microsoft Store - java

My laptop is broken and is at the service right now so I got a borrowed laptop from school. Unfortunately we have no administrator rights on these laptops and a lot of stuff is limited by the administrator. The only way to download tools/applications is through the Microsoft Store. (It is not in s-mode or something, really restricted.) So I want to program and write projects in Java. Normally I use IntelliJ, but that was not in the MS store. I downloaded Visual Studio but am unable to download the JDK.
My question to you: Is it at all possible to create and run java projects with Microsoft Store as the only download store? (Windows 10 Enterprise 21H1)
Thanks in advance!
Tried visual studio but can not run because JDK is missing
Tried a browser IDE, but they work terrible and not really suitable for writing projects

Visual Studio Code might be an option if it works https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/visual-studio-code/XP9KHM4BK9FZ7Q, but your best bet would be the following:
You can use an online tool called GitHub Codespaces: https://github.com/features/codespaces
Codespaces runs a VSCode environment in your browser. You will run a java project just as you would if you where using VSCode. How to use GitHub Dev https://github.com/github/dev

Unable to run existing java Play Framework project on windows machine

I'm getting
Error: Unable to access jarfile C:\Users\stepa\workspace\sse-chat-java\\activator-launch-1.1.0.jar
when running Markus Jura's Play Framework simple chat application on windows 10 system.
On a Ubuntu machine Markus Jura's Play Framework simple chat application works without any problems.
This is what I tried so far:
reinstalling Typesafe Activator to the currently newest version (2.4.3 - same as on Ubuntu machine)
searching for activator-launch-1.1.0.jar (not present on any of the machines)
searching for someone with same problem
I'm running out of ideas. I appreciate any suggestions.
There are 2 places where you may try to change version. See image below (but please also check another file).
I'm not sure it will fully fix your issue, but it worth a try.

eclipse with flex plugin for red5

I've just started to mess around with red5 , I can't say it was easy to get it run at the first place, but after a day on google I finally succeed.
The first thing I had to face is the poor documentation of this server. I couldn't find any good tutorials about making apps (I would pay for a good one, but still nothing) for it, but it doesn't matter since it's free.
I found this : Adobe TV . It's the best starting point I could find so far. The only thing is that I can't set up the same working enviroment as the guy has in the video. I understand it is eclipse (i have that) , and i know he is using flex plugin, but how do I get eclipse to debug mxml files as he does? (around 3.20 in the video) . I downloaded the flex plugin, but after I install it, eclipse stays exactly the same as before.
PLease note I am new to eclipse (and JAVA and flash -huhh... :D - ).
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
There is one more IDE called FDT for flex app development. They are using eclipse. Worthy to try this IDE http://fdt.powerflasher.com/ this is available linux too. This is does not support red5 by native. But you can just simply create as java project.
I prefere the Flex Development to do with flashdevelop: http://www.flashdevelop.org/
it is a very nice openen source code editor. Configuration is really easy and takes just 1 Minute. The only thing to do is to configure the path of the flex sdk. Debugging is nice and i love the code completition feature.

Eclipse PDT plugin gives me trouble

Editor of PDT plugin jumbles the code and doesn't take responses in. I tried many things but didn't help at all. I was wondering what you guys are using to develop PHP applications for I am new to PHP. And I am a Java Programmer so I am more experience with Eclipse that is why I need to fix this issue.Below are few things I tried out
Reinstall PDT Plugin
Checked if Java editor works (it works perfectly)
I am out of solutions now and only think that I can think of is that Eclipse version is giving me trouble. I am using
Version: Indigo Release
Build id: 20110615-0604
OS : Ubuntu 11.04
PDT Version : PHP Development Tools (PDT) All-In-One SDK 3.0.0.v20110516-1100-77
I am going to include few screenshots too. The screenshots were taken when I clicked in different places of the screen. And sometimes what I type is not displaying at all. Another thing I want to mention is that I also have Aptana plugin installed and the PHP is not working properly in it too. So PDT plugin might not necessarily be the cause for it. Will removing Aptana for PHP help me?
I have asked this question on AskUbuntu at here I hope you don't mind the cross posting...
From your screenshot, it looks like you are using the PDT editor, and not the Aptana Editor.
What you need to do is to change the File Association and the Content Types to have the Aptana PHP Editor handle the PHP files in your project (you can do so from the preferences).
Also, since you have both PDT and Aptana installed, you need to make sure that your project was created using the right wizard. That is... if you want to use PDT, create the project using the PDT PHP project wizard, and if you want to use Aptana - Use Aptana PHP project wizard.
Basically, what happens behind the scenes when you create a project is a setup for the project 'nature' and 'builders' that each plugin looks at in order to function correctly. So, although you can install both on the same eclipse environment, you better of sticking to one from the start.
Note: Since you have Aptana installed, you can also change the nature after the project was created. Go to the project properties (right click the project and select properties) and then click the 'Project Natures' item. If you want Aptana, select the items that display 'PHP' and 'Web' (those items should have icons next to them. make PHP as primary.)
If you want the PDT, select the item that show 'org.eclipse.php...' (if I'm not mistaken), and make it primary.
Hope that helps.
This probably is not be the answer you are looking for, but I never liked the PDT plugin (and Aptana stopped supporting their own PHP editor several years ago, which was far better.)
For editing PHP, I switched to NetBeans. They have excellent PHP support, including refactoring, code completion with support for dynamic properties and methods, and more. Plus, you can simply download the PHP version of NetBeans and get started without much other configuration.
(I've since switched to IntelliJ IDEA because I am developing Grails apps, but it is also really awesome for PHP. However, the JetBrains products are not free.)

How should I Install a Java desktop application into a Desktop without Netbeans/IDE and MySQL?

Hi I am planning to install a Java Desktop Application to a PC that doesn't have a Netbeans IDE and MySQL installed.
Can you teach me what to do? I really don't have any clue.
Please help... thanks in advance ^_^
I have created multiple .jar files before with Netbeans. Works nicely, same as an .exe file (double click to run).
Here is a full tutorial from Netbeans. Look carefully, there is a few things one needs to alter and set before you build your project for it to function perfectly.

One thing, the user will have to have Java RE installed on his machine.
I only use Java Web Start for my Swing applications.

How is it launched

Please suggest a platform to port C# app to Mac?

Greetings,
I need to port this Windows utility: http://solinker.com to Mac.
The app was written in C#, .NET 2.0.
The main requirement is:
The app should be able to talk with AppleScript to interact with Photoshop. The program is small and UI is simple so I could consider to fully rewritte the app.
Possible candidates are:
MonoMac
Unity 3D (seems it doesn't required to install the Mono)
XULRunner (Flickr Uploader written by XULR)
QT
Java (convert all the app to Java + 2 different connector to photoshop:
for Mac and for Win)
I would be appreciate for any advice!
I'm not experienced with others but can definitely suggest MonoMac. It looks and feels like any other Mac app while running on Mac. On the other hand, if the application was written with Visual Studio on Windows, it never properly works on MonoMac. So prefer MonoDevelop, if you go this route.
If you check the documentation for MonoMac, you will see they have a packager which bundles all dependencies with the final app. So, no need for a seperate Mono install:
http://www.mono-project.com/MonoMacPackager
As for AppleScript, MonoDevelop does some wrapping of AppleScript. You should take a look at their source:
https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/blob/master/main/src/addins/MacPlatform/MacInterop/AppleScript.cs
I would say MonoMac is your best approach.
