I am quite new to developing plugins with Eclipse and wondered if anyone can help me with an issue or pointers as to where I am going wrong. I am trying to compile a plugin for use in a Lotus Notes Update Site DB for XPages.
I downloaded the plugin code from:
https://github.com/timtripcony/oauth4domino/tree/master
Then I imported it into my plugin project in Eclipse and it doesn't appear to be building because when I view the original developers video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxpTdbsuMaE at 10:44 he has the "Features" & "Plugins" folders and some jar files and I can't get mine to build them. Or am I doing something wrong?
Developers Eclipse Environment
My Eclipse Environment (Update Site greyed out and no Features or Plugings folders) Build All doesn't seem to build anything.
The site.xml isn't mapping to the feature correctly (it's showing greyed out).
The feature.xml in the Feature project (org.openntf.xsp.oauth.feature) picks up the plugin (or plugins - it can include multiple) project (org.openntf.xsp.oauth.library). The site.xml in the Update Site project (org.openntf.xsp.oauth.update) points to the feature (or features) project.
The version number of the feature may have changed. Delete it from the site.xml, then highlight the category and select "Add Feature..." and select the feature. Then you should be able to build it.

I am working on Eclipse plugin. At the beginning exporting of it worked fine but I guess that after updating Eclipse it broke down. Eclipse started to mentioned that I have uninstalled some equinox packages. It took time till I understood that version of Eclipse made a problems and I reinstalled older version of Eclipse. Now I am again able to run sample environment with plugin but I still am not able to export plugin. In export form where I need to select deployable plugin and/or fragments I don't have listed anything. From what I found I understand that it might be problem with importing project in Eclipse as it might not remove information that project is external and thus not listing as project that could be exported. But I did not find any way to prove this case.
Is there anybody having any idea how to solve this kind of issue?
So I am trying to do something slightly unusual.
I checked out a project using Tortoise SVN, and then I imported that project into Eclipse as a Java project, and I can build the project fine.
But I would much rather use Eclipse's Subversion plugin than Tortoise SVN to check in files, update, compare diff's etc.
So is there any way I hook that Java project back into SVN in Eclipse, and then be able to check in files etc through Eclipse.
Note that checking out the project again using Eclipse is not an option for a few different reasons.
Thanks.
Right click on the Project and select 'Team > Share Project...' to set up SVN on the project.
I want to install eclipse plugin Agilereview from following link:
https://github.com/AgileReview-Project/AgileReview-EclipsePlugin
I downloaded the zip and unzipped it. I added it in eclipse as project and many projects added into workspace. When I tried to select all those projects and export them as deploy-able plugins in eclipse repository, eclipse doesn't allow it and always show error like plugin file missing. A problem is the zip file include many folders and many of those folder has its own plugin.xml file. Therefore, I think this Agilereview plugin itself is a combination of many plugins. I am sure that plugin is okay and its my mistake to install it.
Can anyone tell me, what is the mistake I am doing while installation? I want to install this plugin manually since later I need to optimize it.
Each of the folders org.agilereview.xxx is a separate Eclipse project. So you should use 'Import > Existing Projects into Workspace' to import these projects.
Since there are pom.xml files it looks like you should use maven and tycho to build the code.
For building RCP applications and plugins like Agilereview, which itself is a combination of many projects, you can check out the following tutorial:
http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseTycho/article.html
Eclipsetycho provides support for building eclipse components.
Install the maven eclipse tool, which will make your work easy.

This is a pretty complex process, so spend some time to learn from the tutorial.
I am looking for a way to check out a java project from SVN, preferably using subclipse, and sync it with a dynamic web project in my workspace in eclipse.
I would ideally like the Checkout function to download the contents of the java project in the repository into a WebContent folder in my dynamic web project. Is it possible to do this by editing a file path somewhere or by any other means?
I have looked and found similar question answered already (such as
How do I check out an SVN project into Eclipse as a Java project?) but I'm not sure they can help me.
Thanks in advance.
Have you seen Subversive. I use this plugin to checkout projects from SVN.
The Subversive project is aimed to integrate the Subversion (SVN) version control system with the Eclipse platform. Using the Subversive plug-in, you can work with projects stored in Subversion repositories directly from the Eclipse workbench in a way similar to work with other Eclipse version control providers, such as CVS and Git.
I have an existing EJB project set up in Eclipse Helios, and would like to slowly introduce Scala into the project. The Scala IDE has been installed successfully, and I'm able to create standalone scala project. The issue however comes when trying to use my existing project with scala additions. I've went as far as manually editing the .project, .classpath, and related files under .settings of the project's home directory for eclipse.
However I still have the issue where the Java compiler tries to compiles .scala classes, which results in errors and ultimately not being able to build the project.
Has anyone faced a similar scenario or are there any workarounds?
Thanks in advance.
You should be able to right-click the project, go to "Scala" and click on "add scala nature". Then .scala files should be recognized as such. You might also have to add the scala library to your dependencies. Depending on whether this is a "simple" Eclipse project or you're using Maven there might be other steps required.
Right click on project, and choose Configure/Add Scala Nature.
