I'm looking for an eclipse plugin (free or commercial) installer generator, something similar to IzPack, but integrated into eclipse(plugin). Does it exist some plugin to generate application installer ?
Possibly cross-platform.
NSIS is a good language for creating exe's. I use EclipseNSIS. It's a great plugin that has a built in wizard. From the NSIS language you will get a working exe.
This will help you Java Executable Wrapper Plugin for Eclipse

You can also convert executable jar to exe. See here.

I have a C/C++ Eclipse. I want to import java project into my C/C++ Eclipse for my development purpose. I have tried importing. But it is not opening as a java file. It is showing the java files as Just text files?
How can i achieve this?
Your C++ version of Eclipse doesn't recognize Java syntax and Java source files. If you want to code in Java, you should download the Java version of Eclipse.
What you need is Java development tools (JDT). You shall check the version of your Eclipse C/C++ first, then install the same version JDT.
Refer this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/6701354 for install via update site.
You can also download JDT Runtime Binary for offline install.
I am working in NetBeans IDE 7.1. I was looking for how to create a installer (*.exe) for an application, I found a tutorial here, but i couldn't find the installer option in project properties.Where can i download the installer plugin from?
The example that the author presents in the tutorial only works if you create a "NetBeans Platform Application" project (you can find it under New Project->NetBeans Modules), which is built based on NBI.
However, this other post (Making .exe installer from Netbeans 6.9.1) may help you in achieving your goal.

I have downloaded and installed Eclipse for PHP Developers from here:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
I also need to write some Java applications. How can I add Java support to my PHP Eclipse version? Do I have to install second Eclipse for Java?
You should be able to install the JAVA components, using Help > Install New Software.
In the list of components, there should be Programming Languages > Eclipse Java Development Tools.
Here's a screenshot :

Because it is so trivial to have multiple Eclipse instances, I do just that to seperate php and java environments. This reduces the plugins loaded and you can somewhat keep Eclipse lean. Of course the choice is totally yours.
On my version of eclipse:
Help menu->install new software
Choose the download page for your version of eclipse
There is a category "programming language" which should have Java.
What you downloaded was basically the eclipse core project and a list of standard "addon" packages that might help in PHP development. According tho this comparison chart you're only missing two packages to now make eclipse ready for java development:
GEF
JDT
You could just download those two packages from eclipse by going to
Help->Install new software
to have the standard "Eclipse for Java Development" setup.
Is there any open source java decompiler for netbeans just like jadclipse for eclipse.
What I do, I decompile the JAR with jd-gui, save all the sources, then create a new library in Tools -> Libraries, and add the new sources zip in the sources tab, job done.
There is this plugin to integrate JAD into NetBeans, but it unfortunately has not been updated to work in NetBeans 6.8, so it may be of limited value.
Have at look at http://java.decompiler.free.fr/. I don't know actually if it can be plugged into netbeans but it ships which it's own gui, is capable of loading may jars at a time and allows quick navigation through the classes.
