The Rich Engineering Heritage Behind Dependency Injection

Andrew McVeigh takes us on a tour of the rich heritage behind dependency injection, what it represents, and tells us why its here to stay.

Java, the OLPC, and community responsibility

The "One Laptop Per Child" project has a great device ready to ship, but there's no Java on there. Let's think about working together to put Java on OLPC!

I'm not sure if the -startup is used any more, because the startup.jar has now become stored in plugins/org.

Keep track of what's going on with http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Equinox_Startup_Issues

java -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.0.v20070208a.jar

has the effect of the startup.jar used to - but with a moving target of the name.

Just FYI...

I was able to move everything inside the app bundle by adding:
-library
$APP_PACKAGE/Contents/Resources/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.carbon.macosx_1.0.0.v20070208a/eclipse_1006.so
-startup
$APP_PACKAGE/Contents/Resources/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.carbon.macosx_1.0.0.v20070208a

Before, I tried just the startup w/o the library parameter. Yes, it's ugly and not that portable but it works. I would think it sufficient just to be able to provide the location of the plugins directory versus the absolute path. Hopefully, they'll address this along with the other startup issues.

Interesting, but I wouldn't hold your breath. The Mac is one of the lesser-class citizens in the Eclipse world, unfortunately.

Still, I'm attempting to work towards better packaging for Mac OS X for RCP apps and/or Eclipse distros, so in some way it's my fault for not fixing it too

I've been using M5 for the past few days. It works fine without WTP. With latest WTP installed, it often goes out of memory and exits the workbench. Mostly when editing XSD files and sometimes even with complex XML files. Anyone else facing this?; Eclipse Tips Eclipse Search

I have my source and test classes in the same package as well so I can test package private classes and methods. But I use separate projects for production and test code. Easier to build/check out from CVS etc.; Regards Milind

Mhm, I'm not sure. I have M6 and since today Vista. The Eclipse M6 WPF port feels significant slower then the regular one.

I had same issue when I unzip'd using cygwin unzip on XP. I deleted the installation and uncompressed again using the native XP zip utility and it solved the problem. So for me it seemed to be realted to which zip utility I used to uncompress. Hope this helps.

You need to select the proposal kinds containted in the 'default' content assist list

Window->Preferences...-> Java->Content Assist->Advanced

Tick the "Other Java Proposals" checkbox

Hope that helps.

I am not absolutly sure how relevant my response is,but: I had downloaded the windows version of eclipse onto my windows XP machine, in the absence of the UNZIP utility in the windows environment, I used the cygwin version of UNZIP. I tried to run eclipse and got the same error as this, I realised that permissions were involved in the cygwin environment so used find/chmod to modify the jar and dll files to executable and - Bobs yer uncle!

I just had this same issue using 64-bit Vista with RC4. Unzipped using the bult-in extract files in Vista and received this error. Re-did it using 7zip and no problems.
