Can't create java application project in netbeans8.1.(ubuntu)

I am new to NetBeans and I can't create a "Java Application" project, like shown in all tutorials. I can only create a Java Free-Form Project, but this requires a build script, which I don't have either.
Do I have to download a plugin for it and if so which plugin? Or did I download the wrong NetBeans version?
I am using ubuntu version 15 and NetBeans IDE 8.1.

Just make sure you have JDK installed on your system. (I am pretty sure, it would be as Netbeans doesn't install if JDK is not found on your machine, but just to be sure about it). Also, You might have missed to select Java in Select Languages during installation.
To activate a feature manually:
Open the Tools > Plugins menu
Go to the Installed tab.
Select and activate the feature you need.
Return to the New Project dialog.

Found the plugin:
It was in the the "Ant" or the "Ant 1.9.4. Documentation 1.9.4" or Mobility plugin. I downloaded those 3 at the same time, but If I have to guess it was the Mobility plugin.

Not sure if this will help you. I've been working on Windows. I have Netbeans 8.1 and JDK 8 (version 1.8.0.73). When I first started with Netbeans and tried to create my first new Project it opened the New Project window with the Categories portion of the new Project screen focused on the Samples section. I also thought I couldn't create the type of project I wanted to create. If this is what is happening to you, see if you can scroll up in the Categories box. If you can, you should find Java at the top. If you click that, you should then be able to select Java Application in the Projects part of the window.

Error when try install plugin

I'm trying to install a plugin in Eclipse Luna. I installed Papyrus and am trying to install SWT designer, but before the download/installation is completed I get an error:
An error occurred during the
org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.CheckTrust phase.
session context was:(profile=epp.package.standard,
phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.CheckTrust,
operand=, action=). Error reading signed content. error in opening zip
file
After this error I can't install anything and the install manager does not work anymore and shows me the same error all the time only one way I delete the current Eclipse directory and extract it again.
This time I install Papyrus, SWT designer and some other, but I get the error between install another plugin again. This is wrong if I get an error on install any of plugin reinstalling Eclipse and the other plugin again.
Is this a bug or a problem?

OK finally i found the solution for solve this problem. I don't know why Eclipse is showing me this error and i don't know if this is the best solution. I solve my problem with delete the artifacts.xml file in Eclipse root directory.
After deleting this file try to install that plugin again but this time after few second everything completes and works perfectly.
UPDATE:
If you get that error again then just go to Eclipses' root directory and search for "artifacts.xml" and delete all the files is in the result ;)

Remove the artifacts.xml from the folder.
Keep a copy of it in some other location (preferably external devices such as pendrive or hard disks etc).
Restart Eclipse.
Install the software plugin you want to install (it will ask for permission again).
After installation paste the artifacts.xml file back into the eclipse folder.
Restart eclipse and set the SDK location.
Code to death!!! ;p

Run Eclipse as an administrator, then try to install the plugin again via help->Install New Software. it worked for me

I installed E4 RCP Patch(bugzillas 445122)(Install new software -> Eclipse 4.4.1 Patches for bug 445122) and this helped me.

I ran across this problem while updating eclipse's internal software. I discovered that the jar file org.eclipse.epp.mpc.help.ui_1.5.2.v20161004-1655.jar (found in the error details) in the eclipse plugins directory was corrupted (7-Zip was unable to inspect its contents). I redownloaded and manually replaced this file with one downloaded from their site, and I was then able to install the software without an issue. Hope this helps :)
(If it was a different JAR file for you, you can click "show directory contents" on this page and download the one you need.)

The reason for this error is typically a damaged jar in the bundle pool. You can fix this without manually editing files:
run the Eclipse installer ("Oomph")
select "Bundle pools" from the menu
hit the "Analyze agent" button
wait until the column "Damaged Artifacts" doesn't show a percent number anymore (scanning has finished)
You can now filter the bottom view to show only damaged artifacts, and choose to either delete or repair them (repair means to download them again from the Internet).

Recently i had this issue & i did a few workaround to make things right,
Drag and dropped from official page, normally eclipse restarts after the download, and a pop-up will ask us to select the svn connectors from list. but that didn't happened to me.
Install svn Plugin. (By drag and drop or install new software or any)
After this goto window->preferences->Team->svn
select Connector Tab and click Get connectors Button then the prompt will appear select any one connector to get it done (i use NativeHL 1.8).

I solved this problem by editing the artifacts.xml.
Close Eclipse.
Edit the artifacts.xml.
Find and delete previous entries related to the plugin you are
trying to install.
Save artifacts.xml.
After this you should be able to start Eclipse normally and install your plugin.

I tried many solution from here including the one which says removing artifacts.xml and try installing with opening software with Run as Administrator also tried to install from the Help option "Install new software" none of this worked for me.
Then I updated to the latest version of JDK and it worked perfectly.
I hope this help you.
Thanks.

How to install SWT for eclipse Kepler

I recently downloaded eclipse Kepler to learn to use SWT, I also downloaded the SWT zip folder.
The instructions on eclipse web site states that I should import the zip folder to Existing Projects into Workspace. I have done this, but no project shows on the Projects form field, I have been googling since morning to get info on how to install SWT on Eclipse Kepler but I have not found any help.
Please I need help on this, as I am faced with a project that needs rich look and feel. All replies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all.

I got it, Ignorance was the case, cos I have never done any SWT before. so this reply is for all those who are as Ignorant as I was.
The jar file representing the SWT library is found in the plugin folder, of the eclipse installation, to add the jar file to a project you would have to follow these steps:
Right Click on the project Name
Select Properties
Choose the Java Build Path from the dialog that appears
select Libraries > click on the Add External JARs...
Select the SWT jar file from the plugins folder in the eclipse folder represented by org.eclipse.swt.windowing_system>_.jar
and click on OK to exit the dialog`,
then you are ready to play

Configuring angularjs with eclipse IDE

I want to start using AngularJs and Java Spring for development purpose.I am using Eclipse as IDE . I want to configure my Eclipse to have these frameworks working seamlessly.
I know I may be asking too much,but trust me I have done much research on my part and you guys are my last resort.Any help would be much appreciated.

You'd first wanna make sure you have the JSDT installed.
Next thing is to install some dedicated tools for the job, so check out AngularJS Eclipse Tools. The AngularJS Eclipse Templates might be of help, too, and here's a visual guide written for it to get you started.
Also see the AngularJS Eclipse getting started page.
Since this answer had been posted, the AngularJS Eclipse plugin was released, as other answers stated. You might wanna check it out first.

Install JavaScript Development Tools (JSDT) and AngularJS Eclipse plug-in in eclipse from Eclipse Marketplace or Update site angularjs-eclipse-0.5.0,
Right Click on your project --> Configure --> Convert to Angularjs Project (as shown below)
Now you can see the Angularjs tags available as shown below.
.

Make sure the project is extracted on your hard disk.
In Eclipse go to the menu: File->New->Project.
Select "General->Project" and click on the next button.
Enter the project name in the "Project name:" field
Disable "Use default location" Click on the "Browse ..." button and select the folder that contains the project (the one from step 1)
Click on the "Finish" button
Right-click with the mouse on you're new project and click "Configure->Convert to AngularJS Project.."
Enable you're project goodies and click on the "OK" button.

Netbeans 8.0 (beta at the time of this post) has Angular support as well as HTML5 support.
Check out this Oracle article: https://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/entry/integrated_angularjs_development

Since these previous answers above, there is now a release of an Eclipse Plugin to assist with development using AngularJS:
https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/angularjs-eclipse
https://github.com/angelozerr/angularjs-eclipse/wiki/Installation---Update-Site (take a look around the other Wiki pages for information on features)
The release at the time of the answer is 0.1.0.
Please also checkout JSDT (http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/jsdt/) and also Eclipse VJET (http://eclipse.org/vjet/). The VJET project appears to be an attempt to provide better feature sets to the editor without being encumbered by the JSDT project (open source politics at play I guess).

Download angular js from this link and add as new software in eclipse
http://oss.opensagres.fr/angularjs-eclipse/0.6.0/

Configuration worked with Eclipse Mars 4.5 version.
1) Install Eclipse Mars 4.5 from
https://eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/mars2
This comes with Tern and embedded Node.js server
2) Install AngularJS Eclipse plugin from Eclipse Marketplace
3) Configure node.js server to the embedded nodejs server within Eclipse (found in the eclipse plugins folder) at Windows-> Preferences -> JavaScript -> Tern -> Server -> node.js. No extra configurations are required.
4) Test configuration in a html or javascript file.
https://github.com/angelozerr/angularjs-eclipse

With current Angular 4 and 5 versions, there is an IDE for that.
Go to eclipse market place any search for 'Angular'. You will see the IDE and install it.
After that restart eclipse and follow the welcome messages to choose preferences.
How to start using eclipse with angular projects?
Considering you already have angular project and you want to import it into eclipse.
go to file > import > choose Angular Project
and It would be better to have your projects in a separate working set so that you will not confuse it with other kind of (like java)projects.
With Angular IDE You will have a terminal window too.
To open this type terminal in eclipse search box(quick access) on the top right corner.

Hi Guys if u are using angular plugin in eclipse that time is plugin is limited periods after that if u want to used this plugin then u pay it so i suggest to you used webstrome and visual code ide that are very easy and comfort to used so take care if u start and developed a angular app using eclipse

Eclipse default with plugins

I am trying to create a default Eclipse , with all the plugins installed. So that my team always the same eclipse version , and don't have to installed any extra plugins.
Any idea , where I would have to make changes in order to default eclipse with such settings.
Thanks !!!

Assumig "with all the plugins" you mean all of eclipses official plugins: Go To Help->Install New Software, select the Eclipse Update Site (for example http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno) and install the plugins you need.
If you need other non-official plugins, just install them.
After that you can just zip the eclipse install folder again and distribute it

You can look at creating a "Shared install". This means that you create an Eclipse installation in a read-only location on a shared drive that all devs have executable and read access to. Then, when a dev launches the Eclipse instance, a custom configuration area is created in the user's ~/.eclipse folder.
This works fairly well. And end users can install their own plugins on top of the base install without affecting others. The only limitation that I am aware of is that some plugins cannot be installed unless the user has write access to the target install folder (Groovy-Eclipse is one example of this because of its use of a feature patch).
More information on shared installs can be found in Eclipse help.
