I need the e(fx)clipse Window Builder to develop my application. I am using Windows XP Java 8 is unsupported. I must use an older version of e(fx)clipse to that supports Java 7. I've looked everywhere on how to do this but all sources are leading me to installing the latest version via the (Install New Software) feature in Eclipse. This doesn't work for me as I cannot find the correct p2 link for older versions of the software. Please help.
Here is the steps for offline install plugins.
Open WindowBuilder Pro download page, click the link under Zipped Update Site. If you are using Eclipse 3.8, you can download WB v1.7 for offline install.
If you don't want to install extra plugins, select menu item Windows > Preference. Then select tree item Install/Update > Available Software Sites, uncheck all items and press OK to close it.
Unpack the downloaded zip file to a folder (do NOT use the file expleror of Windows...)
Select menu item Help > Install New Software.... Click Add... button and Local... button to select the folder in previous steps.
Eclipse will list avaiable features for install. You can select the features and click Next button. You may get errors such as:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: SWT Designer XWT Support (requires Eclipse WTP/WST) 1.7.0.r42x201405021548 (org.eclipse.wb.xwt.feature.feature.group 1.7.0.r42x201405021548)
Missing requirement: WindowBuilder Core for XML GUI's 1.7.0.r42x201405021458 (org.eclipse.wb.core.xml 1.7.0.r42x201405021458) requires 'bundle org.eclipse.wst.sse.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: SWT Designer XWT Support 1.7.0.r42x201405021548 (org.eclipse.wb.xwt 1.7.0.r42x201405021548)
To: bundle org.eclipse.wb.core.xml 0.0.0
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: SWT Designer XWT Support (requires Eclipse WTP/WST) 1.7.0.r42x201405021548 (org.eclipse.wb.xwt.feature.feature.group 1.7.0.r42x201405021548)
To: org.eclipse.wb.xwt [1.7.0.r42x201405021548]
In this case, you can unselect features: WindowBuilder Core for XML and SWT Designer XWT Support. Since they depend on the plugins of Eclipse webtools... (Or install Eclipse webtools before install WB)
Once all errors gone, accept the license agreement and click Next to finish the installation. Then you can use WB after restarting Eclipse.

I am developing Eclipse RCP application, I am very new in RCP development & plugins development. I want to attach the eclipse source code in my eclipse (Kepler 4.3.2).
Please suggest me step by step, how to attach the source code in my current eclipse?
Use 'Help > Install New Software...'
In 'Work with' enter the updates site for your release. This is http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.3 for Eclipse Kepler (4.3), http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.5 for the more current Eclipse Mars (4.5).
Select and install 'Eclipse Platform SDK' for the core source, or 'Eclipse SDK' for more complete source.
Once this is installed open the 'Preferences' and go to the 'Plug-in Development' page. Check the 'Include all plug-ins from target in Java search' option. This will include the source in Eclipse searches and the 'Open Type' dialog. Note: If you are using a 'Target Platform' the source need to be included in the target platform to get the search to work.
Alternatively most of the downloads from the Eclipse Projects page include the source plugins.

I heve readed that that can be being caused by the new serialization filter feature in the JDK(Serialization Filtering. Seems that it was added to JDK 8 after the 112 update so on this update of the JDK it shall work but it certainly is possibly to use the Java ME SDK on JDKs with this feature. I did it at least on JDK 1.8.0_192. To this I had to make some changes on the java.security file.
The chages were:
Remove the # on front of jdk.serialFilter
Replace the texto after
jdk.serialFilter to *
Romove the # on front of
sun.rmi.registry.registryFilter property and of it parametres and
remove the whitespaces and / from the same.
Do the same on the
sun.rmi.transport.dgcFilter property.
Append ;* at the last parameter
of sun.rmi.registry.registryFilter
It seems to be importante to not corrupt the parameters because I do this and the emulator wasn't starting.
I tried on JDK 11.0.1 and it don't work.
I did what the other answer recommends, which worked, but only when using Netbeans IDE 7.4 and JDK 1.7 for a 32-bit system (https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase7-521261.html). Currently using a Windows 10 64-bit system. Note that I did not accept any updates for the required Java ME plugins, as I hear that might make things crash.
I have issues installing Developer tools, Google plugin for eclipse[req], GWT Designer for GPE and SDK from ...gle.com/eclipse/plugin/4.3. I have installed Kepler SR2.
I have tried updating the software within Eclipse and also through downloading locally.
How can I get GWT installation? Are GWT under Window-builder and Google Web toolkit same? Actually, I want a GUI editor for web application.
What should I do?
Download and install a fresh copy of Eclipse IDE Java EE Developers and then install the plugin as you did in Eclipse (Help > Install new software) and you wouldn't have a problem.
The GWT plugin includes the GWT Designer for the graphic editing.
EDIT
In order to see if you have GWT Designer installed try:
1) Create a GWT project.
2) Right click on the src package and create a UiBinder file. That
will create two files : a Java file et an XML file.
3) Right click on the XML file : Open With > WindowsBuilder Editor.
Before installing, you have to install in the fresh eclipse ide.
Help -> Eclipse Marketplace then search for 'Google Plugin for Eclipse 4.3' and click install button
Don't check any GWT Designer. Should check all above them.
Help -> Install New Software... by input url at work with: http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/d2gwt/latest/4.3
Check all GWT Designer and don't check any WindowBuilder because eclipse will select the lastest modules of windowbuilder from Google Plugin for Eclipse 4.3. (In [3] its version is 1.6.0 but within google plugin is 1.6.1)
When you found the problem on GWT Designer, you have to change gwt sdk to version 2.5.1
Enjoy!!!
Q: Why don't I recommend you to choose gwt designer in google plugin?
A: It's not perfect designer if you would like to develop in the same past way (GWT 1.0). It's similar ASP.NET Web Form.
This is the GWT 2.0 development way: http://blog.sortedset.com/googles-app-engine-java/gwt-uibinder-helloworld-with-html/
I want to write a java web application using NetBeans 7.0.1, but i can't find the option Java Web in File -> New Project. Do i need to get any special Java edition to do that?
Go to the Tools menu and select Plugins.
Click on the "Available Plugins" tab.
Check the box for "Java EE Base" (note: on older NetBeans versions, the plugin to install was called "Java Web Applications").
Click the "Install" button.
Click your way through the dialogs until the plugin and its dependencies are installed.
Restart the IDE.
You should now find "Java Web" in File -> New Project.
Go to the Tools menu and select Plugins.
Click on the "Available Plugins" tab.
Check the box for "Java EE Base".
Click the "Install" button.
Select "Web Projects" from plugin list
Check the term & condition checkbox
Click next and wait while NetBeans downloading the plugin
Restart IDE
My answer will provide images for you to understand easily.
Go to Tools -> Plugins like this image
In Plugins windows, select Available Plugins tab, choose and install Java EE Base like this image
Now just follow the instruction and install the plugin, when it's done, restart the Netbeans, then you can create Java Web Application like this image
I had problems while finding the plugins under the Available plugins tab. The reason was under the settings tab, the three checkboxes were unchecked. I checked them all and then I can see the plugins under the Available plugins Tab.
And then I followed the steps mentioned in other answers. Hope this is also useful to this context.
Well, maybe you cant find Java Web in the installation list, so, search for Java EE Base, in Netbeans 7.x is the option, and includes the comment that includes Java Web and EE.
regards
If you have NetBeans 8.2+ and installed the EE edition, open the plugin panel from Tools -> Plugins. Go to the installed tab and check the Java EE Base plugin. Then activate that plugin.
If you need other options as well the select all the plugins under the Web and Java EE category and activate them.
In my case Above mentioned thing didn't worked for me.
I have installed multiple JDK (JDK version 8 and 9) due to which Netbeans 8.2 might not working as expected and then I was unable to create project.
Then I removed JDK9 and cleared cache from \Users\admin\AppData in windows.
Then I was able to create Java Project.
I have installed eclipse Helios and want to create a plugin project. I select File --> New --> Project but there I do-not see the option for Plugin development. There are only 4 options--
General, CVS , Java and Examples.
Here are the eclipse details--
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers
Version: Helios Service Release 2
Build id: 20110218-0911
Do I need to configure anything in the eclipse settings or preferences for this?
You have to install the Eclipse for RCP and RAP Developers package of eclipse, not the one for Java Developers.
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-rcp-and-rap-developers/indigosr1
Edit: As an alternative you can install the plugins for plugin development into your existing installation. But this might require some fiddling.
The reason there might be no "Plugin Project" option in your Eclipse IDE could be due to the fact that the IDE you have installed does not include the necessary components for plugin development.
to get the plugin project flow the below steps.
Open Eclipse and go to the Help menu, then select "Eclipse Marketplace".
In the Marketplace window, search for "PDE" and select the "Eclipse PDE" option from the list.
Click on the "Install" button next to the Eclipse PDE option, and follow the prompts to complete the installation process
