Eclipse templates are too easy to use,to modify and to remember.Lets write one to make our class a singleton.

One of the most useful and time saving shortcut in eclipse is Ctrl+1.You can use almost all eclipse help for your code by this shortcut.

Dont switch view take another eclipse.You can have two eclipse shares the same resource.Not to eclipse in different workspaces.Two eclipse in same workpace using same resources(console etc.).

Eclipse launch configurations are a very useful tool, but for some programs they can be particularly difficult to set up. It can be nice to share them as part of your project so the most common activities can be easily executed by your users.

sumThe VIRTUAL style allows you to create a Table or Tree that is populated on an as-needed basis instead of fully up-front. For Tables/Trees with large data sets or expensive population operations this can preserve initial responsiveness and significantly reduce computational effort.

Open editors switching is the one thing that I really missed in Eclipse 3.1. But finally it is in 3.2.

Eclipse 3.2 is shipping with an improved (and merged) rendition of the local history and repository history views into a single 'history' view. This history view is a master view for handling all types of history you may have for a file.

GUI development is not without its frustrations, quirks, and confusions. That's true for SWT just like any other UI library, and as such it's nice to have debug tools available to understand what is going on.

Did you know that Eclipse TPTP can perform static analysis of your code? If I have lost you, static analysis is the process of digging through source code looking for patterns and usage that appears to be a bad programming practice.

If you're like me, you like to avoid lifting your hands off the keyboard. I despise having to reach way over to the mouse (crossing the desert tundra that is my desk) so I can perform tasks such as window organization.

Can you change the setting that aborts a run if there are problems? I accidentally set it and now I can't change it back.

Is it possible to specify to the plugin that some of the required JARs don't need to be exported, but are available somewhere else in the file system?

DeDemo.java can't run, running problem:org.eclipse.birt.core.exception.BirtException: $NO-RB$ Can't startup the OSGI framework

Hi, I am doing more research into the foundings of Java. What basically is a Transient or a Volatile variables and when are they used? Thanks

Any way to get it to print in black on white ignoring the syntax coloring and to get it to number the pages and print a file name on each page?

How to contribute a menu item from one plugin, where the menu has been defined by an actionSet extension in a different plugin?

Hi everyone, We do not use Eclipse as part of our development environment but I do need to integrate with it. Hence, some basic questions:

Can someone tell me a way to remove or edit the IDE context menu that appears on right-clicking a pane's tab?

How to sync Eclipse and IntelliJ projects? I need to synch both class paths and launch configurations

I need to implement a license feature system for eclipse. I want when I open eclipse, to check a file if the user is licensed to do so.

I have a PreferencePage which appears correctly, and I created a PreferenceInitializer to set the defaults for it, but they are never set.

when using multiple src-folders in one subproject some files are replaced when the project is built.

I would like to know how to instantiate a view when an application starts not just when it is needed.

I am working on an RCP application with an editor but I am having problems adding an annotation model to an editor.

I get an "Unable to acquire application service" error during launch of the RCP product. The launch fails.

After I install Web Tools and Birt appears a message that says "Current Configuration Problems". I am not able to determine what happened.

I want to remove a view from my application that is being provided by another plugin. I don't reference it in my plugin xml or in the perspective.....

To replace getAdapter() of IResource I use Proxy, but my resource navigator (based on ResourceNavigator) have problems working with Proxy objects.

autoboxing and autounboxing doesn't appear to exist, all I get is errors. Is this supposed to work automatically, or do I have to turn on the feature?

Why is CPU utilisation only 50% on a hyper threaded P4 3Ghz CPU during clean builds? Can eclipse use 2 CPUs during the build process for compilation?

One of the great things about Java is how multi-platform it really is. While cross platform glitches do occur, they are not really all that common. But since the law of unintended consequences is all pervasive, we now have the common sight of teams of dev...

Does somebody know how I can disable the "Save As" option in the popup menu of the perspective bar in an RCP application?

Thanks in advance

One of the most useful and time saving shortcut in eclipse is Ctrl+1.You can use almost all eclipse help for your code by this shortcut.
