BrightScript Eclipse Plugin Not Showing Up After Install on OSX - java

After installing the BrightScript Eclipse Plugin for Roku development it acted like it installed fine but is not visible anywhere in Eclipse. What am I doing wrong?

I figured this out although I wasted a good part of two days trying to uninstall and reinstall the plugin on various eclipse versions. If you look here:
http://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/Eclipse+Plugin+Guide
and look at the release notes for the 9/30/2013 release you'll see that it says the plugin is disabled if not running Java 1.7 or higher. I believe eclipse for mac ships with a version of Java but it must be older than this. I went here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
and downloaded the latest version and there it was. Hope this saves someone else some time.

Migrate to new eclipse version on Mac gives No class found error

I upgraded to the newest Mac Pro running Big Sur (11.4) from my 12 year old Mac Pro running Mojave (10.14.6). The old version of Eclipse was version was Kepler service release 2. When I installed the Mac and restored from backup, Eclipse flat out would not run, so I deleted it and downloaded and installed the latest version 2021-03 (4.19.0). I also updated JAVA SE to version 16.0.1 from Java version SE 7.
When I tried to run/compile a previous working project, I get:
I then decided to update the libraries found in the Java Build Path properties to the latest I could find:
to see if that made any difference. It didn't. I'm probably missing something very basic but I don't know what, since I use Eclipse only rarely.
I decided to go down the rabbit hole and download the missing jars in the error log, one after another. It just kept getting deeper and deeper with no end in sight. Just didn't quite pass the smell test.
Hmmm. I originally downloaded eclipse from the main elcipse.org page and went to the downloads button and installed it. Turns out the eclipse directory was only 21.2 MB. Plugin directory was basically empty. Hmmm.
I stumbled on the download file eclipse-SDK-4.19-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.dmg after looking for a SWT download. This file was the eclipse version that was 295.4MB in size. Double hmmm. So I ran it. Needless to say I was startled when my project compiled and ran right off the bat. Gee, thanks eclipse. Can you make it any more difficult for your Mac users? Anyway after a wasted day of head banging... problem solved.

Google plugin for Eclipse Luna not showing the icon

I have been around 4 hours trying to install the Google Plugin for Eclipse Luna. I followed every step of the installing guide but when i finished the Google Logo for starting a new project didnt appear as it should:
As you can see even though i have the plugins installed i cant see the icon or start a new web project.
My operating sysyem is OSx Yosemite. I tried updating to Java 8 and JDK 8 (and 7) and deleting all the files as this question recommends. Also deleted and "reinstalled" eclipse and the plugin a lot of times but didn't workout.
Anybody with the same problem? Thanks a lot.
I had the exact same problem on my new MacBook. I had to install JDK 7. I downloaded and installed the Mac OS X x64 version of 7u75 from here:
JDK 7 Downloads
After it installs make sure it's the system default by executing the following from the Terminal:
/usr/libexec/java_home
If it looks good to go then just restart eclipse and you should be good to go.
I suggest you even to delete your Eclipse_Luna:
Re-install your Eclipse and then install the GAE-plugin again.
Remember to re-start your Eclipse after you've successfully install the GAE-plugin for Eclipse_Luna.
I faced the same issue.
I installed JDK 1.7 and used 1.7 jre for eclipse as mapped and downloaded the eclpise plugin AND restarted and it worked fine.

Updating Java and JRE are causing many errors in Eclipse

I'm using Eclipse to program Android applications, and when I opened the program yesterday, it popped up an error saying I need to install JRE - I've downloaded the JRE and installed it - when during the installation I got a message saying that the JAVA version I have on the computer (Version 7) is too old for the JRE (Version 8), and that I need to update the JAVA also.
I did so, and then opened up the Eclipse again - And all of the projects,that before worked great, are now full with errors.
I tried installing all of the SDK updates - didn't work, also tried uninstalling Eclipse and re-install it - also didn't work.
The errors I get are: "XXX cannot be resolved to a type" - in amost every single line in the project.
How do I fix it??
Thank you!!
android development tool(adt) are install.. and all update SDK and then import an old program.. Ithink then work.
I would suggest to check that your java build path is functioning properly. This kind of error for me usually means that eclipse cannot find the JRE installation.
Form eclipse you can go to Project->Properties and check for any errors there. Any inconsistency there would cause all your projects to fail.
First of all, you need the JDK installation, not JRE. Second, Android currently supports up to Java v7, which means you'll need to get JDK v7 from here. Make sure you download the correct 32-bit or 64-bit JDK version for your operating system.
Also, ensure your Android SDK and Android Development Tools (ADT) are on the same released version. Different versions of Android SDK and ADT can lead to many unforseen problems.

How to add jdk8 in Eclipse Indigo

I just read How to have Eclipse use JDK8 to compile a project?
What i added jdk8 to eclipse as,
From the answers of How to have Eclipse use JDK8 to compile a project?
I tried to Update the JDT/Core, JDT/UI bundles from http://dist.springsource.com/snapshot/TOOLS/java8/e43
But it shows error as,
"Eclipse Java Development Tools Patch for Java 8 Support (BETA)" is not applicable to the current configuration and will not be installed.
"Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment Patch for Java 8 Support (BETA)" is not applicable to the current configuration and will not be installed.
How Can i fix it ?
I can say that Java 1.8 does in fact work with Eclipse Luna ( the beta version released around March 17, 2014) or later. I tried it and it was good.
Also, I noticed that in the Eclipse Marketplace, there are now plugins to install functionality into Kepler to support JDK1.8. I haven't tried the plugin myself though.
This is a old topic but I just wanted to point out that I have searched enough to find that Indigo version can't be updated to S.E 1.8 here the link which is given on eclipse website to update the Execution Environment but if you try it will throw error for Indigo.
Here is the link where the Information about execution environment is given.
This shows the step by step to update Execution environment.
I have tried to update Execution environment and I got the same error.

I'm having difficult installing the Android environment on Eclipse. I've tried all the usual fixes like running as an administrator but have had no success.

If you will be developing in Eclipse with the ADT Plugin, first make sure that you have a suitable version of Eclipse installed on your computer as described by the system requirements.
If you need to install Eclipse, you can download it from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/. We recommend the "Eclipse Classic" version. Otherwise, you should use a Java or RCP version of Eclipse.
I was not able to install the ADT plugin for Eclipse Juno either, so I had to stay with Eclipse Indigo for a while. I noticed that others had the same issue.
You need
java JDK
Android sdk
ADT plugins
Eclipse
in eclipse goto -> help -> install new soft-> select ADT XX...
then Goto windows -> preferences -> set android sdk path
