Eclipse add plugin development - java

I have installed Eclipse Helios. how can i add to it plug-in development functionallity (to be able to create OSGi bundles)

You need to install the Plugin Perspective
Usually you can try to get it via:
Help->Install New Software
"Work With:" -> "--All Available Sites--"
type "Plug-in" into the filter box
Open "General Purpose Tools" (may be called differently in your eclipse version!)
install "Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment"
restart!

Please find the below steps to Install PDE(Plug-in Development Environment) plugin in Eclipse:
Go to Help -> Eclipse Matketplace
Type PDE in find textbox to search
You can see PDE Plus icon
Install it

http://www.vogella.de/articles/OSGi/article.html gives a pretty detailed overview on eclipse & OSGi.

I think the best and easiest way is to download another package that already have PDE installed:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
chose "Eclipse for RCP and RAP Developers" or "Eclipse Modeling Tools", both are OK.

How to open Java perspective in Eclipse mars for php?

I've installed Eclipse Mars for Php, now I'd like to use it to write Java, how can I install JDT (looks like the plugin that I need) to make it show Java Perspective?
I've tried both ways:
install it from Eclipse Marketplace, but I din't find JDT.
Tried to type in the URL for JDT, the closest that I could find is this one: http://www.eclipse.org/jdt/, but it says Not Found.
Any help is really appreciated!

Use 'Help > Install New Software...'
Choose your main software site (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars for Eclipse Mars) in the 'Work with' combo.
In the resulting list choose 'Eclipse Java Development Tools' in the 'Programming Languages' section.

How to install the eclipse source code via "Eclipse Marketplace" or "Install New Software" option from eclipse menu?

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.

Can't create Java Web Application in NetBeans

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.

Plug-in project option not available in Eclipse

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
