I'm working on a hybrid application so when I try to install worklight in eclipse Juno I followed two methods: the 1st one is searching in the eclipse market and that doesn't work and the 2nd is clicking Help, choose install new software, click on add, enter worklight as a name and the following URL for location: http://public.dhe.ibm.com/ibmdl/export/pub/software/mobile-solutions/worklight/wdeupdate/, here the problem was that this link doesn't work.
The current MobileFirst Studio release on the Eclipse Marketplace is of v8.0. If you are looking for previous releases of IBM MobileFirst, [you can find additional downloads in the developer center](https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/downloads/.
In v8.0 the MobileFirst plug-in for Eclipse exposes CLI commands into the Eclipse interface, such as: register application, preview application, open console and a few more (see the tutorial for more information.
v8.0 requires Eclipse Mars.
Note: In v8.0 you create standard Cordova applications using the Cordova CLI, and you add the MobileFirst SDK (a set of Cordova plug-ins) also using the Cordova CLI. You only use Eclipse if you prefer to use Eclipse is your development environment (to write Java/Script code for adapters).
Also required is the THyM plug-in (available from the Eclipse Marketplace) if you'll choose to use Eclipse to develop your Cordova applications.

The previous version of JDK Mission Control 5.5.2 bundled with Oracle JDK 7 had the possibility to add a WebLogic plug-in, which allows viewing the SQL queries, servlets between other components as seen in this image.
Then the new JDK Mission Control 7.1.2+b04 doesn't seem to have a similar plug-in or at least it's more complicated to apply it.
When trying to investigate, the JMC is pointing to
https://download.oracle.com/technology/products/missioncontrol/updatesites/oracle/7.1.2/ide/update-site-instructions/index.html
stating that the plugin must be installed via Eclipse 4.8 or later, so the latest Eclipse is 2012-12 was installed, and then the plugin with https://download.oracle.com/technology/products/missioncontrol/updatesites/oracle/7.1.2/ide/ as well, as seen in this image:
The Eclipse IDE was restarted and now it got a new icon in the menu bar:
which connects (or at least it tries to connect) with the Java processes running in this local station:
but that's not the WebLogic plug-in I expected, similar to the one available in the previous version of JMC.
Does it exist a WebLogic plug-in in JMC7.1.2 similar to the existing in JMC5.5.2?
To install WebLogic plug-in for JMC, go to Help menu and select Install New Software menu item. Expand "Mission Control (Oracle)" and then "Flight Recorder" and you will find "WebLogic Pages" plug-in. Follow the instructions on screen to complete installation of plug-in.
This is described in the Oracle JMC 7 User Guide under Install JMC Standalone Application in the "Install Plug-ins for JMC Standalone Application" sub-section.
I would like to know what are the prerequisites to migrate plugin from v6.3 to 8.0. The code written for the plugin is in Java, should we any additional steps? or the same code(6.3) will continue to work for migration?
Can any one suggest any tool for plugin migration (like how we have for MFP Cordova application)?
As of MFP 8.0, MFP client SDK is a Cordova plugin. If you have developed a custom Cordova plugin, this should work fine with MFP 8.0 as well. You can add your custom plugin to the Cordova project and use it as you would any other plugin.
Custom plugins are developed to meet specific requirements and the native implementation is specific to respective platforms. This is outside of MFP and there is no tool for custom plugin migration. Developer needs to do it themselves if a code change to their custom plugin is warranted.
Currently I am using Eclipse. Can I use another IDE or a customized configuration for Eclipse to build for my project faster? I want to increase my production time.
Worklight 6.2 and above provide a command line interface which you can use instead of Eclipse.
With some development effort you could also take the CLI and hook it to other IDEs that provide pluggability options.
You can read more about the CLI, here:
For Worklight 6.2: Command Line Interface for IBM Worklight Developers
For MobilFirst 6.3 and above: Using CLI to create, build, and manage MobileFirst project artifacts
just an easy quesition but I can't find any answer in this wonderful world wide web...
I just want to create a new Plugin Project based on Eclipse Helios. Normally this feature should be shipped with this version (Version: Helios Service Release 2 Build id: 20110301-1815) but I can't choose it via "file->new->Project". Do I have sth. to install previously?
Thanks a lot for any help guys ... :)
It is also possible to do plugin development with any eclipse classic version. (I am working with 4.2)
For plugin development in eclipse classic version you need to go
Help-->Install New Software--> In work with select version url provided by eclipse it self. e.g. in case of 4.2 Juno it will be Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno
It will render all the possible plugin provided by eclipse it self.
In that list there will a Eclipse plugin development environment in General purpose tools.
Or you can get that one by writing plug in filter text box.
Select Eclipse plugin development environment and install it.
Now you can able to do plugin development in classic version also.
Hope this will be helpful.
Install Eclipse for RCP and RAP developers.
If you already installed Eclipse you can add on the Plug-in Environment from within Eclipse
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/273044/
The Plugin Perspective is not installed.
To get it: Help->Install New Software
Work With: --All Available Sites--
In the Filter Box, type "Plug-in"
Look for something that says "General Purpose Tools" and expand it.
Look for "Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment"
Click Next a few times and install it, then restart.
Exact verbiage may depend on your Eclipse version.
I am using "eclipse-rcp-helios-SR1-win32-x86_64"
64-bit eclipse running on JDK.
I am trying to add an action in my plugin via menu contribution. When I add "org.eclipse.ui.menus," right-click on it then select "New," I only the "Generic" option. I am expecting to see "menuContibution"
The issue is described in detail here, which also seems to include the solution: link
From what I understand, the version of eclipse I have - helio SR1 - is an SDK version and should have the source included in the package. I am not sure what I need to do to make those additional options show up.
if you have the "Generic" it means that you don't have the source plugins. But you have downloaded the right package (RCP one). I guess your download might be corrupted. Can you try downloading it again from a different mirror?
i am try to this answer is useful.
step-1: Eclipse menu bar Select Help menu
step-2: select Install New Software
step-3: Eclipse project update link (Required version) below image
step-4: Choose Eclipse plugin Development Tool and
step-5: After Next button click to finish.
Eclipse can Restart after working successful.
Installing Eclipse plugin Development Tool, as per Bharat Zala answer, is not enough. It still did not work for me:
I had to install Eclipse SDK and Eclipse Platform SDK packages:
Then it finally worked:
Note:
Lars Vogel in his book "Eclipse Rich Client Platform", in chapter 8 Install Eclipse IDE for RCP development, he advises for to
Download the Eclipse Software Development Kit (SDK) as a recommended Eclipse edition for RCP/PDE development.
Most people probably have installed more mainstream Eclipse editions like Eclipse for Java developers. Installing Eclipse SDK and/or Eclipse Platform SDK as packages to them later should re-create SDK installation as advised by Lars.
It did not work for me even after installing both.
I did go Update site " http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.5" and when it lists the different components.
Please unflag the "Group items by category" check box and Install "Eclipse RCP SDK" and related components.
Thant should fix the issue.
Thanks
