In Netbeans 12.2 on Ubuntu 18.04 (using that snap install), for my C++ plugin I have that first image. When I try to create a new project I get that second image. That is some kind of a lightweight version that does not do your makefiles for you. If I try to open an existing C++ project it just never IDs any project file or folder as the right one. And notice that this version does not include a "Create from source code".
Does anyone know how I can install the "real" c++ plugin? I've looked in a lot of tutorials but they all say it should be there under Available Plugins, but it is not there.
This comes very late but it seems that Netbeans 12 lacks some components for this.
Therefore you must enable Netbeans 8.2 Plugin Portal from Plugins Settings.
Then deactivate the C/C++ and then force updates from Updates -> Check for Updates. Restart IDE and install 8.2 C/C++ plugin.
Note: I have lead into this problem now because unpack2000 is no more present.
The validation of downloaded plugins cannot be completed, cause: NBM ../.netbeans/12.4/update/download/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit.nbm needs unpack200 to process following entries:
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_ja.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_pt_BR.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_ru.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_zh_CN.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit.jar.pack.gz
This can be resolved by installing jre-11 (if it is not present already. I have it on Opensuse Thubleweed amogst with jre-16).
So then you just start netbeans from terminal with:
$ netbeans --jdkhome "/usr/lib64/jvm/jre-11"
...and then install blugin, and when it is ready close netbeans and start it normally again.
Just wanted to report that the answer from Devspain also works with Netbeans 14, in Ubuntu 22.04.
I'm a frequent user of PyCharm and a number of the other JetBrains IDEs. I try to keep my settings synchronized across the different IDEs, but I'm now considering moving to IntelliJ IDEA and am finding it extremely difficult to figure out what I've changed and what the differences are among my different settings files.
How can I put my PyCharm settings files under version control so that I can track my changes and also quickly revert back to old versions so I can try out new settings changes without fear?
(I don't mind exporting to a specific repo each time, but it seems that the settings always export as JAR files, which don't lend themselves to VCS.)
I am using the Settings Repository plugin to syncronize settings between PyCharm and PhpStorm and it is working very well. It is actually designed with version control and team sharing in mind, see project repo on github and have built in support for conflict resolution, merge and overwriting remote or local.
It does also support file system and, from what I can tell, what then is stored is the mirror version of the git repository.
PyCharm (at least the Linux 4.X and 5.0 Pro versions) places its config files in a .idea dir under the project dir:
$ find .idea/
.idea/
.idea/libraries
.idea/libraries/Google_App_Engine_SDK.xml
.idea/libraries/Generated_files.xml
.idea/apartsw.iml
.idea/misc.xml
.idea/modules.xml
.idea/runConfigurations
.idea/runConfigurations/apartsw.xml
.idea/encodings.xml
.idea/vcs.xml
.idea/inspectionProfiles
.idea/inspectionProfiles/MyProject.xml
.idea/inspectionProfiles/profiles_settings.xml
.idea/watcherTasks.xml
.idea/webResources.xml
.idea/workspace.xml
.idea/scopes
.idea/scopes/scope_settings.xml
.idea/dictionaries
.idea/dictionaries/username.xml
I added the entire dir with the exception of .idea/workspace.xml into the project's git repo, following JetBrains' PyCharm-specific and/or generic .idea-based Tools recommendations.
I install antlr in my eclipse. And set antlr-code generator-output folder-project relative folder as antlr-generator.
I can new grammar file (grammar.g)and compile it successfully.
There isn't files in the folder (antlr-generator)
But files:
grammarLexer.java and grammarParser.java are not created.
How can fix this issue?
Just installed Eclipse Indigo and ANTLR 3.4 on Windows 7x64 and had the same problem and no errors on the ANTLR Console. Uninstalled java and installed latest v7 update 4 (32 and 64 bit) and cleaned up classpath and path environment variables. Still no files generated but now I was seeing error "No such directory: org/antlr/tool/templates/dot/dfa" in the ANTLR Console. The fix is in Eclipse under Window, Preferences, ANTLR, Builder, Building. In the General section, make sure that -nfa and -dfa are unchecked. This fixed it for me.
I am not an expert programmer and have yet to write an ANTLR program. Probably others here can figure out how to fix the directory not found error.
I ended up creating this article on configuring ANTLR IDE in case you never go this working or just wanted to check your configuration. And this article on testing/debugging may be helpful also.
I've tried multiple times to install the Zen Coding plugin for Gedit in Ubuntu 11.10. (I have all the latest updates installed.) I know I'm doing it correctly because I've done it on other installations with no problem but for some reason it doesn't even show up in the plugins list. Anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks!
I found that for GEdit 3 this plugin works : https://github.com/mtrovo/zen-coding-gedit3.
Ubuntu 11.10 ships with Gedit 3, 11.04 had Gedit version 2. Plugins written for version 2 will (supposedly) not work with the newer version, as it uses GTK3, while Gedit2 used GTK2.
Some of the plugin changes are:
New folder: ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins
.gedit-plugin extension should be named .plugin
[Gedit Plugin] header should be [Plugin]
IAge=2 should be IAge=3
All plugins must have a .plugin file along side it.
Here's a blog post I found that covers making plugins for Gedit 3. And here's a relevant question on AskUbuntu.
I'm interested in looking at Erlang and want to follow the path of least resistance in getting up and running.
At present, I'm planning on installing Erlang R12B-3 and Erlide (Eclipse plugin). This is largely a Google-result-based decision. Initially this will be on a Windows XP system, though I am likely to reproduce the environment on Ubuntu shortly after.
Is there a significantly better choice? Even if it is tied to one platform.
Please share your experiences.
I highly recommend the Erlang mode shipped with the standard Erlang distribution. I've put together a "works out of the box" Emacs configuration which includes:
Syntax highlighting & context-sensitive indentation
Dynamic compilation with on-the-fly error highlighting
Integrated Erlang shell
And more....
You can browse my GitHub repo here:
http://github.com/kevsmith/hl-emacs
I've only done a small bit of coding in Erlang but I found the most useful method was just to write the code in a text editor and have a terminal open ready to build my code as I need to (this was in Linux, but a similar idea would work in Windows, I'm sure).
Your question didn't mention it, but if you're looking for a good book on Erlang, try this one by O'Reilly.
You could also try NetBeans there's a very nice Erlang module available: ErlyBird
Install Erlang: sudo aptitude install erlang
Install a recent JDK: sudo aptitute install sun-java6-jdk
Download and install (the smallest) NetBeans edition (e.g. the PHP one): www.netbeans.org/downloads
download the erlang module ErlyBird: sourceforge.net/projects/erlybird
manually install the modules via NetBeans
ErlyBird features:
syntax checking
syntax highlighting
auto-completion
pretty formatter
occurrences mark
brace matching
indentation
code folding
function navigator
go to declaration
project management
Erlang shell console
I'm using Erlang in a few production systems personally as well at the office. For client side testing, documentation and development I use a MacBook Pro as the OS/platform and TextMate with the Erlang bundle as an editor.
For sever side development and deployment we use RHEL 4.x/5.x in production and for editing I use VIM. Personally, I've got 4 machines (slices on slicehost.com) running Debian using Erlang for a few websites and jobs.
I try to go with the smallest 'engineering environment possible', usually the one with the fewest dependencies from apt or yum.
To add to the Emacs suggestions, I would also recommend that you look at the advantages of distel when running the Emacs erlang-mode.
I've seen answers suggesting TextMate here, so I wanted to add another good Mac OSX tool:
ErlangXCode plugin to XCode.
I've been using this since I started with Erlang and really do like it.
The download link on his blog is broken, here's the real download:
http://github.com/JonGretar/erlangxcode/tree/master
You could also try a virtual server on demand service like this one from CohesiveFT
Select the components you want (e.g. erlangrb12 + yaws + MySQL + erlyweb) and it will build a vm image for you to download or to put onto ec2.
Rolling you own locally is quite straightforward too if you follow the instructions in the pragmatic programmers book Programming Erlang
Just a quick note:
The Erlang "compiling" process described in Ciaran's post (described for Ubuntu 6.10 btw) can be easily skipped using apt command in any Debian based distro:
apt-get install erlang
Do not forget to install these packages if you see it fit:
erlang-doc-html - Erlang HTML document pages
erlang-examples - Some application examples
erlang-manpages - Erlang MAN pages
erlang-mode - editing mode for Emacs
Good Luck!
I like Justin's suggestion, but I'll add to it: this solution is great for learning a language. If you don't rely on something like code-completion, then it forces you to learn the language better. (If you are working with something with a huge API, like Java or Cocoa, then you'll want the code completion, however!)
It's also language-agnostic, and in the case of an interpreted language, particularly one that has an interactive interpreter, you'll probably spend just as much time in the shell/interpreter typing in commands. Even in a large-ish python project, I still work in an editor and 4 or 5 terminal windows.
So, the trick is more about getting an editor which works for you. I'm not about to suggest one, as that's heading towards evangelism!
I just use Scite. Type something and press f5 to see the results.
Just wrote a guide on this on my blog, heres the abridged version:
Part 1: Download what needs to be downloaded.
Download and install the Erlang run-time.
Download and install TextPad.
Download a .syn file for Erlang and place it in the system folder of TextPad. For me, this folder was C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\system. I'm not quite sure who did this syn file (the site is in another language), but they did a good enough job.
Part 2: Set up syntax highlighting.
Open up TextPad. Ensure no files are opened. Go to the 'Configure' menu, and select 'Preferences'. In the preferences window, click 'Document Classes'. There should be a list of currently recognized languages. Click the 'New' button (it is right under the list of languages), and type 'Erlang'. Click apply.
Click the '+' button next to 'Document Classes'. This should expand the list, and Erlang should now be on it. Click Erlang. You should see a list of file extensions associated with Erlang, click 'New', and type '*.erl'.
Now click the '+' button next to 'Erlang' on the left. This should expand a list of several more menus. Click on 'Syntax'. Click the drop down menu and select erlang.syn. If erlang.syn is not there, then the .syn file was not properly placed.
Feel free to edit some other syntax options to customize TextPad to your liking.
Part 3: Compiling from TextPad.
Note: as of 12/05/08 there are severe problems with compiling in textpad. The Erlang shell somehow ignores new compilation when it is done in text pad. This is only useful for checking for errors, when you want to actually run the code, compile it in the Erlang Shell.
In the preferences menu again, click 'tools' on the left.
Click the 'Add' button and select 'Program...'. Navigate to the erl5.6.5\erts-5.6.5\bin\ folder and select erlc.exe. Select and single click the new entry in the list to rename it. Click 'Apply'.
Now click the '+' button next to Tools on the left. Select erlc, or whatever you have named the new tool (I named mine 'Compile Erlang'). The parameters field needs to read '$File', and the initial folder field should read '$FileDir'.
I have had good success with Erlide.
If you use Vim I recommend you Vimerl (http://github.com/jimenezrick/vimerl):
Features
Syntax highlighting
Code indenting
Code folding
Code omni completion
Syntax checking with quickfix support
Code skeletons for the OTP behaviours
Uses configuration from Rebar
Pathogen compatible (http://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen)
From what i've tried (and are still up to do), a good addition to an erlang dev. environment would be a virtual machine running ubuntu/yaws/erlang. Perhaps Erlyweb (erlang/yaws framework) would be nice checking out too.
Ciaran's posts (this would be the first of his "series") about his erlang install is nice, as he details the steps in setting up the server (and other stuff like xmpp with jabberlang).
Since you're switching to Ubuntu eventually anyways, I highly recommend using erlang-mode for emacs (which comes bundled with the Erlang distribution). It is officially what all the core developers use and what many other developers use because of the many features it offers you.
Installing the Erlang distribution itself should be simple :)
