I have recently moved to JDK 8 and want to start developing applications and have a server, wildfly. In NetBeans you just have to import the WildFly plugin, but in eclipse you have to import all JBoss Tools plugins. You need to install ~ 450MB (JBoss Tools) only for use WildFly 8? WildFly 8 has depends on all these plugins?
Greetings.
You don't need to install all of JBoss Tools. There is a feature category called Abridged JBoss Tools. which contains the absolute minimum feature JBossAS Tools, which is basically a WTP adapter for JBoss AS/WildFly.
Note that there is some useful stuff in the Abridged Tools, like extended JSF and CDI support for Eclipse. But for stuff like Seam or Portlets which you probably don't use, it's safe to leave the corresponding features uninstalled.
On Eclipse Luna, I did this:
From main menu, select Help -> Eclipse Marketplace...
Type JBoss Tools in the search box
Select the JBoss Tools plugin and click Install
Give it a moment to figure out all the features in the plugin
Deselect all features
Find the feature named JBossAS Tools and select it
Next, Next, Finish (actually it's a bit more contrived than
that but you'll manage)
On Eclipse Mars this is even simpler, as the JBoss Server Adapter is installed by default.

I have downloaded and installed tomcat 9 to my machine, but on Eclipse > Window > Preferences > Server > Runtime Environment, after clicking on Add, I see only Tomcat 7 and Tomcat 8, but not Tomcat 9.
What I have done:
1) installed tomcat 9 to local server;
2) updated eclipse to Mars (latest as of 2015-11-25);
3) installed eclipse "JST Server Adapters" and "JST Server Adapters Extensions"
Note:
My purpose of using tomcat 9 is it seems to be the only version that explicitly support java 8 and later, and my web app is using java 8. (http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html)
I also have tomcat 7 exist in project but I also want to keep it in the machine, not to delete it.
Please see screenshot.
Please let me know about any config that I missed!
There are two things to note here:
Tomcat 9 is not released yet. Not a final version that is. If you check the official website, you will see that the only available version is an M1 version. Hence there is no support from Eclipse WTP for this early version. It will come soon, but not yet.
Tomcat 9 is not the only version that explicitly supports Java 8. If you check this page, you will see that "Supports Java version: 8 and later", which in this context means, that it officially support only Java 8 and above. It does not mean however this is the only one supporting Java 8. Theoretically you should be able to use any Tomcat version, in practice a Tomcat 8 will work perfectly well, since it support Java 7 and above. The majority of people with a Java8 + Tomcat combination are using Tomcat 8. Tomcat 8 also has Eclipse WTP support.
I was able to get the adapters for Apache 9 by installing Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools 3.9.4
Use a later version of eclipse e.g. Eclipse Neon.
It should work.
I tried all the above methods but still was unable to find solution for the problem then I did the following and that helped me to add Apache tomcat to my Eclipse IDE:
After following Help>Eclipse Marketplace and installing Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools 3.10 still tomcat was not available so I went to Help>Eclipse Marketplace>Installed>Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools 3.10>Change I put tick on the following and then I got the Apache Tomcat finally in my Eclipse IDE:
JST Server Adapters
JST Server Adapters Extensions
JSF Tools-Tag Library Metadata(Apache Trindad)
Git Integration for Eclipse
Use later EE version of Eclipse! Contains Tomcat adapters 8.5 and 9.0
I had same problem, but not now.
On my side, eclipse marketplace was stucked on previous WST server adapters.
I've used old update feature Windows > Install New Software
In main update site, I found Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development part, where WST Adapters where ready to update ...
Eclipse MarketPlace often embed too much features & plugins.
On my own point view, easier to keep a light eclipse ;-)

I am new to JBoss and have just installed Eclipse. I have added a project to the workspace and now I want to deploy it to a Jboss server. However, in the New Server Runtime Environment list, JBoss is not available:
I am using the below Eclipse version:
Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
Why is JBoss not listed as a runtime environment? What do I have to do to add JBoss to the list of available runtime environments?
Since Eclipse Mars 2 (JEE edition), JBoss Tools can be directly dowloaded from the New Server interface:
Selecting JBoss AS, WildFly, & EAP Server Tools will install JBoss Tools. After installation, the view will include JBoss/WildFly:
Follow the below instructions if Eclipse Mars 1 is used.
It is simply not built-in into the Eclipse distribution. You need to install JBoss Tools from the Eclipse marketplace (Help -> Eclipse Marketplace and search for "JBoss Tools").
More specifically, the feature you are asking for is documented here:
http://tools.jboss.org/features/server.html
Here is the solution follow below steps
In Eclipse Mars go to Help-> Install New Software
Click on add button and paste the URL of the update site which is in our case: Eclipse Mars tools for Jboss
Now select the JBossAS Tools plugin and Click "Next"
I faced the same problem, what I did was change the eclipse.ini point JDK version 1.8. Jboss Tools required 1.8.
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_51\jre\bin
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
If server or tool you wanted(like glassfish,jboss) isn't listed then click download Additional server adapters and download desired adapter.After that all related servers and tools will be listed then follow instruction here -
Jboss Community
http://riccardotramma.com/2013/06/install-jboss-and-use-it-in-eclipse-juno/
This worked for me. It required two passes through Window/Preferences...
Window/Preferences/Server/Runtime Environments
Add...
Select Red Hat JBoss Middleware
Next
Accept the license agreement
Installation takes a few minutes and requires an Eclipse restart
After the restart:
Window/Preferences/Server/Runtime Environments
Add...
Select JBoss Community/JBoss xxx Runtime
Next
Set the home directory and click the "Download and install" link
Select the version to download
Accept the license agreement
In complement to the response of #Magnilex, (and for now...) you must run Eclipse Mars with a JDK 8 or the server adapters of JBoss Community don't appear (see the first chapter of http://tools.jboss.org/blog/2015-06-23-beta1-for-mars.html)
I tried all the possible solutions that I came across, but none of them worked for me to install the jboss server in the eclipse IDE. Everytime I ended with one error(i.e Unable to load the repository), then I came to cross with below solution
Here is the solution follow below steps
In Eclipse go to Help-> Eclipse MarketPlace
Search for Red Hat CodeReady Studio(Developer Studio) and install it after accepting the agreement and install it.
Restart the eclipse inorder to reflect the changes in the eclipse
Goto servers and look for the jboss run time enivironment which will be there and load the server to the eclipse
If you have any doubt regarding installation in eclipse IDE,go through the below link

So I am watching a tutorial about how to configure JSF in eclipse. I understand that you click file -> new -> Dynamic Web Project.
And then it gives you a few options. The Target Runtime will be (for me) Apache Tomcat version 8, and dynamic web module version will be 3.0. And in the configuration drop-down you are supposed to see Java Server Faces 2.0v or 2.1v, but I do not have that option.
Does anyone know why?
That can happen if you started with plain "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" instead of with "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers" and then manually added some plugins on it. Throw away your current Eclipse install and restart clean with "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers".
If you dont see the JSF options, then its not part of your original eclipse version. In that case, you need to download the extra tools that you want. Go to Help -> Install New Software and then type the following URL in the box http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/kepler This URL is for Kepler version of Eclipse. You need to change it according to your eclipse version. jBossTools have JSF features. Restart the eclipse once the s/w is installed successfully.
I'm attempting to generate a JAX-WS server top down (from a WSDL) for the IBM WebSphere v7 runtime using Eclipse Kepler. The problem I'm running into is that I simply cannot select the web service runtime to be IBM WebSphere JAX-WS, there is no option for it. I've installed the WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools plugin for Kepler and configured the runtime in Eclipse to be the runtime installed on my system. I can also compile applications against the WAS 7 runtimes and deploy them to a WAS 7 server, so it would appear the runtimes are available.
The biggest thing that's frustrating me is that the option is available in Eclipse Indigo (3.x). To make sure there wasn't something awry with my work space or install in any way, I downloaded fresh copies of both versions of Eclipse, started with fresh work spaces, and installed the WAS 7 plugin on both versions from the marketplace. Eclipse 3.x gives me the option, but 4.x does not.
Now, I know these plugins are different versions. The version provided by the marketplace for Eclipse 4.x is 8.5.5011.v20131031_0202 while the version for 3.x is 8.5.1002.v20130402_2058, which based on the version number appears to be about 7 months older. This leads me to my question, is it possible to use the IBM WebSphere JAX-WS runtime to generate web services in Eclipse 4.x anymore? I've tried searching the web all I can but have found no mention of this ability being removed from the plugin. I've even found other SO posts that make it seem like this once was available for Eclipse 4.x, but maybe no longer is with the latest version of the plugin (this linked question is over a year old). Does anyone know the answer to this. Is it no longer possible to do this, or is it actually possible by some other means that that you could share please?
Apparently this is fixed now (see https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=29712397-fdfd-41be-8668-ada56447711a). The version of the plugin didn't change, but it sounds like there was an update to the plugin that fixed a bug.
I just installed Eclipse at home, so I can program servlets. But it seems that I don't have the new Web applciation option, and many others.
Anyone knows what's the problem ? I install it first in Program Files then on C:\. Still the same problem.
Btw, I am using Windows XP, with Eclipse Helios Service Release 2.
Did you download the version that includes WTP (Web Tools Platform). If not you will have to add the appropriate features.
Which version of Eclipse did you download? There are several different distributions (Eclipse Classic, Eclipse for Java Developers, etc.). You should make sure you downloaded the "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers".
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/heliossr2
To program servlets you need Eclipse for Java EE developers, and DON'T forget a server like Apache Tomcat, or Glassfish, which I guess are not included with the original package of eclipse.
Personally I have manage to install Tomcat separately from Eclipse and then link it with the IDE. There are plenty of tutorials on youtube:
