What are the steps for installing UML Designer in Eclipse? - java

I am having no success at installing UML Designer in Eclipse for Java Developers.
I have tried 6 different versions of the Eclipse IDE, going back as far as 2020-09. I have also tried installing Sirius first, but that also resulted in errors during installation. Finally, I have tried both the Eclipse Marketplace route and the "Install new software" route using the software repository URLs. Lastly, I have combed the internet looking for a "how-to", or similar, without any luck.
I assume, given that this discussion category is ongoing, that it is possible to install UML Designer in some version of Eclipse. :-) Can somebody please walk me through the exact steps that were followed to achieve a successful install?
Thanks for any help!

Unable to install org.eclipse.ajdt.ui.nature in Spring Tools 4 / Eclipse

I just downloaded the latest Spring Tools 4 package, 4.3.2 RELEASE. My code base makes widespread use of AspectJ, and every time I try to import a project, I get a "Marketplace solutions available" dialog saying my IDE is missing natures to properly support my projects. It offers org.eclipse.ajdt.ui.ajnature as a solution, but the marketplace won't install it. When I try to access it directly through the Eclipse marketplace in my browser, I get an error dialog saying it's not compatible with this version of Eclipse. I'm using Java 11 on Linux. It's a little hard to figure out which version of Eclipse is embedded in this tool, but it appears to be Eclipse Equinox. Thanks for any help or suggestions.
The link provided by howlger http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ajdt/48/dev/update was the missing piece of information. That solves the problem, everything builds.

Not able to install M2eclipse plugin in NEON Eclipse

I have installed Eclipse Neon Milestone 4, Java 8, and Apache Maven 3.3.3 on my windows system. I am trying to install plugin :: M2E - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.6.2 in eclipse. I am getting error -
Cannot complete the request. See the error log for details.
"m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse (includes Incubating components)" will be ignored because a newer version is already installed.
But When I look in "Installation detail" I can't see Maven plugin there. Also no Maven menu option is coming when I am right clicking the project.
Please help to proceed.
I just ran into this problem too. I'm using the same version of Eclipse, etc. It turns out that the "fix" was kind of subtle. When you go an install new software under the help option using "http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases", then you select the maven option. On the next screen they say here's what your downloading...
I had to select the two items by highlighting them then press next and agree to the licenses for m2eclipse to install correctly. The first time when it didn't work I thought, okay great that's what I need, and then nothing happened. Hopefully that helps, I realize you're getting this answer about 10 months after you asked for help.

'API Tools Javadoc Proposals' issue in eclipse

So I was working on eclipse when I received this issue
The 'API Tools Javadoc Proposals' proposal computer from the
'org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.ui' plug-in did not complete normally.
The extension has thrown a runtime exception.
This happened directly after I installed Java-8 into eclipse.
Now my understanding that this is a comparability issue so I tried multiple things as shown below, however I still face the same issue
1- I have tried help->Check for Updates
So it performed some updates normally but the same issue remained as it is
2- I have tried help->Install new Software to install JAutodoc
So I got the link for their website and installed the latest update I believe, however the same issue remained.
Website: http://jautodoc.sourceforge.net/
Update link: http://jautodoc.sourceforge.net/update/
As for someone not familiar with this tool, I believe that I might have forgot something. However searching through the internet did not help me.
Any suggestions ?
See this bug report: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=433918
Like the poster in the bug report, I was able to fix this (in Kepler) by uninstalling everything to do with the Groovy plugin. After uninstalling the groovy pieces I had to reinstall java 8 support from this Kepler-specific link, and then I was able to reinstall the Groovy plugin using the J8-specific groovy eclipse link in the bug report: http://dist.springsource.org/snapshot/GRECLIPSE/e4.3-j8
Then once I fixed the compiler compliance level in my project to 1.8, things were working again.
(Took me a while to find how to uninstall things: Help -> Install new software, and then click the little "already installed" link at the bottom.)
From the bug report, it sounds like this bug wouldn't happen in a newer Eclipse (Luna or Mars.)
I just ran into the same problem today.
I solved it as follow (I have a mac, instructions for other operating systems might differ)
Open Eclipse
About Eclipse
Installation Details
*Find org.eclipse.pde.api.tool.ui
*click update.
Updating the plugin solved my issues. I am not sure if this solution works for everyone but it works for me.

eUML & Eclipse Kepler: Has someone been able to make it work?

I'm trying to install eUML2 on my Eclipse Kepler installation.
So far, no success. I'm having dependencies problems when trying to install eUML2 studio from the update site. The instruction on the officail installation page does not mention kepler at all.
Does someone was able to install eUML2 on Kepler? It was a great tool, if it has been discontinued its a real pity...
Had the same issue so I had to change my mind. I now use an online UML tool

How do I work with JavaFX in Eclipse Juno?

I have installed jdk1.7.0_15.
JavaFX's download page says the following:
JavaFX 2.2.7 contains the latest security fixes and is co-bundled with
the latest JDK 7 for Windows, Mac and Linux.
Download Java SE 7 with JavaFX 2.2.7
Like a good noob, I followed the instructions and installed the JDK. Now when I look for jfxrt.jar file that I can import to Eclipse as a user library, I can not find it. There are a few other JavaFX related libraries in JDK's lib folder but I do not understand what to import next.
Most of the tutorials on Google, including the one by Java, are very old.
Please help me get started with JavaFX
I recommend using e(fx)clipse.
e(fx)clipse is a plugin to assist JavaFX development in Eclipse which will fix your classpath issue and provide you with many other useful features as well as step by step documentation and code completion assistance.
Great question. I remember having the same problem when I started. Here is a little step by step guide.
1) Make a new JavaFx project (This is actually the same as a Java project, it just comes with a more suitable skeleton)
2) If you're getting errors like 'Can't find javafx.application' add the jfxrt.jar by right clicking on the libraries and select 'Add folder/Jar' You will have to browse to your jdk folder and find jfxrt.jar. Here is where it is located in my jdk:
/jdk1.7.0_15/jre/lib/jfxrt.jar
3) For the third step I suggest checking out this example. This example comes with sample code and I used it to copy and paste till I got a little more comfortable in javafx.
