Eclipse: How do I install Eclipse Web Developer Tools manually? - java

How do I install Eclipse Web Developer Tools using the dropin folder?
What do I need to download?
This is for Eclipse 3.6 Helios.

If you really do not want to use the Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers 'edition' which comes with web developer tools bundled you will find instructions on this page. You can download the necessary packages and the prerequisites from here.

JSF facets not available in Eclipse

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.

Finding Eclipse Plugin Wizard

I have the following version of Eclipse:
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers
Version: Kepler Service Release 1
Build id: 20130919-0819
I am trying to use the Plug-In wizard, but when I try to open a new project, this wizard is not one of the options. I downloaded this standard version of eclipse from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
Is there something else I have to download or was I supposed to download a different version?
Thanks in advance!
In order to work with Eclipse Plugin development, you need to use SDK version of Eclipse. You can download Eclipse SDK 4.x from this link
SDK version contains all the necessary tools to build Eclipse plugins. From the website,
Developers who use the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP) will find that the Eclipse SDK 4.2 makes it easier to build great looking rich client applications
You should have the everything. File > New > Project... should open a wizard with Plug-in Development > Plug-in Project as one of the wizard selections:

Open new dynamic web project in java

I'm writing server-application in java which needs to run on ec2 of amazon. I read somewhere i need to open dynamic web project, but i don't have this option in eclipse. my eclipse version is .
I tried to install through help -> install new software the package "Web Tools Platforms" from http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/indigo
but it failed in the middle of the installation.
Somebody can help me with that?
thanx!!
You need the one labelled Eclipse for Java EE Developers that one lets you create web projects.
Also see this & this. It will help you..
Not all of them are required (I think), but after installing the components listed below I got the "Dynamic Web Project" template added to my Eclipse (Indigo). The list is:
Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
Eclipse Web Developer Tools
Eclipse XML Editors and Tools
You can install those packages by clicking on "Help" > "Install New Software", selecting the repository that corresponds to your Eclipse build (i.e http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo for Indigo). The packages are grouped under "Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development".

How can I see the new web application option in Eclipse

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:
