Section 1.2: Getting Started with Eclipse

This tutorial is for people that have not yet worked with Eclipse. You'll explore Eclipse's architecture and become familiar with the plug-in mechanism. We will start with an overview of Eclipse and how to install and run it. Next, we will describe Eclipse's Workbench and its resources, views and perspectives. ...

Section 2: Advance Eclipse IDE

Eclipse provides a first-class set of Java Development Tools (JDT) for developing Java code. These tools include a Java perspective, a Java debug perspective, a Java project definition, editors, views, wizards, refactoring tools, a Java builder (compiler), a scrapbook for evaluating Java expressions, search tools, and many others that make writing Java code quick, fun, and productive.

Section 2.2: Refactoring your code using Eclipse

Eclipse provides a powerful set of automated refactorings that, among other things, let you rename Java elements, move classes and packages, create interfaces from concrete classes, turn nested classes into top-level classes, and extract a new method from sections of code in an old method. Becoming familiar with Eclipse's refactoring tools is a good way to improve your productivity. This survey of Eclipse's refactoring features, with examples, demonstrates how and why to use each.

Section 2.3: UML modelling in Eclipse using Visual Paradigm SDE

Visual Paradigm SDE for Eclipse (SDE-EC) speeds the application development lifecycle by becoming a visual bridge among architects, analyst, designer and developers. Visual Paradigm SDE for Eclipse is engineered to increase the speed of requirement capturing, analysis, design, development, testing and deployment.

Section 2.4: Log your application using Log4j, Commons Logging and JDK 1.4 logging

Log4E is a free Eclipse Plugin which helps you to use your logger easily in Java Projects.

Section 2.5: Using CVS in Eclipse

Eclipse ships with a graphical CVS client that makes it easy to manage your projects with CVS. Another tutorial on Eclipse and CVS can be found here.

Section 2.6: Testing your Java Code using JUnit and Eclipse

JUnit is a regression testing framework written by Erich Gamma and Kent Beck. It is used by the developer who implements unit tests in Java. The goals of this tutorial are to show how to a) use JUnit with Eclipse and b) produce better code according to the XP-rule test first. Here is another tutorial on Junit/Eclipse to produce code according to the XP-rule.

Another good tutorial is available here: Unit Testing in Eclipse Using JUnit.

Section 2.7: Profiling Applications in Eclipse

Application profiling is one of the most valuable techniques available for programmers to get out of the world of premature optimization, and back into reality. By simply profiling an application, it becomes immediately apparent where the overwhelming memory and CPU burdens are, and allows you to quickly squash them. The Eclipse Test and Performance Tools Platform (or Eclipse TPTP for you acronym nuts) is an infrastructure for doing all kinds of monitoring and testing of applications from within Eclipse.

Section 2.8: Debugging with the Eclipse Platform

Find out how to use the built-in debugging features in the Eclipse Platform for debugging software projects. Debugging is something programmers can't avoid. There are many ways to go about it, but it essentially comes down to finding the code responsible for a bug.

Chapter 2: GUI Development using Eclipse

A good presentation on SWT and JFace by Ben Galbraith with audio.

Section 1.2: Getting Started with Eclipse and the SWT

This site contains some tutorials and example programs that will help programmers who are new to Eclipse and the Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) install Eclipse correctly and run some simple Java/SWT programs. The main focus of this site is illustrating the use of the SWT for developing Java-based desktop applications.

Section 1.3: Introduction to SWT presented at Eclipsecon 2005

Carolyn MacLeod, and Grant Gayed provide a guided tour of the toolkit by breaking the task of building a graphical user interface-based application into component parts, and showing how these are modeled in SWT through a series of examples.

Section 1.4: SWT Programming with Eclipse

SWT is a cross platform GUI developed by IBM. Display, Shell, and Widgets are basic building blocks of an SWT application. Developing an SWT application is different from developing a Swing application. To begin with an SWT application development, you need add SWT libraries to your classpath and set necessary environment variables accordingly.

Section 1.5: Develop GUI using Visual Editor tool

In this article, you'll get an overview of Visual Editor and the technology behind it, along with a short demonstration of Visual Editor 0.5's features for building AWT/Swing applications and a preview of the SWT support in Visual Editor 1.0.

Section 2: GUI Development using GEF/EMF

Section 2.1: Eclipse Development using the Graphical Editing Framework and the Eclipse Modeling Framework

In this IBM Red book, two frameworks that are developed by the Eclipse Tools Project for use with the Eclipse Platform: the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF), and the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) are examined. Both the Graphical Editing Framework and the Eclipse Modeling Framework are covered, but these frameworks can be used separately, and there is no dependency between them.

Section 2.2: Display a UML Diagram using Draw2D

Draw2d provides lightweight rendering and layout capabilities on an SWT Canvas. This article focuses on the use of Draw2D to render a simple UML class diagram.

Section 2.3: Create an Eclipse-based application using the Graphical Editing Framework

GEF has been used to build a variety of applications for Eclipse, including state diagrams, activity diagrams, class diagrams, GUI builders for AWT, Swing and SWT, and process flow editors. This article describes the initial steps involved in creating an Eclipse-based application using the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF).

Chapter 3: Plugin Development in Eclipse

This paper is a general technical introduction to the Eclipse Platform. Part I presents a technical overview of its architecture. Part II is a case study of how the Eclipse Platform was used to build a full-featured Java development environment.

Section 2: Learn about the Plugin Development Environment

The Plug-in Development Environment (PDE) provides a set of tools that assist the developer in every stage of plug-in development from genesis to deployment. This article chronicles the creation, development, testing, building, and deployment of a simple "Hello World" plug-in using a subset of these tools.

Section 3: Contributing to Eclipse: understanding and writing plug-ins

This tutorial illustrates the full plug-in development cycle by way of an example. You'll explore the Eclipse architecture and become familiar with the basic plug-in mechanism. You'll also add extension points to your plug-in to enable others to extend it. You will then package your extensible plug-in as a Feature and publish it with the built-in Eclipse Update Mechanism. Finally, you'll set up and manage an Eclipse Update Site, a place for other Eclipse users to explore new features as well as finding upgrades.

Section 4: Create your your own refactoring plugin using Plugin Development Environment

This article will introduce you to the steps for creating your own refactoring as a natural extension of Eclipse.

Chapter 4: Create your Rich Client using Eclipse

Participants will learn and perform the steps to build their own RCP application. They show how to develop a minimal application plug-in, add a feature including custom branding, and package the application for deployment. They show how to deliver updates using an update site and the update manager.

Section 5: Plugin to RCP in 10 minutes - screencast

This short (under ten minutes) screencast gives you a glimpse of one of Eclipse's core advantages -- module reusability. Not just class reusability, but full component reuse. Such reuse is not easy to achieve, but Eclipse's architecture makes this much more possible than ever before.

Section 6: Branding Your Application

You have completed the functionality of your RCP based application but are unhappy because it still looks too much like a default Eclipse application. It is time to "brand your product," which consists of changing aspects such as the icon used by the launcher, the splash screen, the window image, and more. This article will help you to accomplish these tasks and will point you to other documents of interest.

A common problem after reinstalling an Operating System (OS) is the appearance of a boot screen with multiple OS options, even though there is only one OS on the system. The traditional method of removing the invalid entry is to manually edit the boot.ini file. (Ref), But XP provides an alternative method that eliminates the danger of manual editing by using the System Configuration Utility.

To Remove the Invalid Entry in Win XP

• Click Start > Run
• In the Open: line type msconfig and click OK to open System Configuration Utility
• Select the tab labeled BOOT.INI
• Click the button labeled Check All Boot Paths
• A dialog box will open detailing the location of any invalid operating system locations.
• Confirm you want to remove the entry and reboot the system.

Bluetooth Pairing happens when two Bluetooth enabled devices agree to communicate with one another. When this happens, the two devices join what is called a trusted pair. When one device recognizes another device in an established trusted pair, each device automatically accepts communication, bypassing the discovery and authentication process that normally happen during Bluetooth interactions.

Firefox 1.0.1 is the award winning preview of Mozilla's next generation browser. Firefox empowers you to browse faster, more safely and efficiently than with any other browser [1].

Visit http://getfirefox.com to get this awesome browser.

After you download the browser please install the following extensions to take advantage of some of the rich features of the Firefox browser.

Or you can install all the extensions that I currently use by installing this single file - jyotirmaya.xpi.

EXTENSIONS

Please follow the steps shown below to make Mozilla Firefox run Real One player. For lower versions of Real Player follow the guidelines posted here [2].

1. Close all open Firefox windows. Locate the Plugins and components folders of Firefox. (Programfiles-->Mozilla Firefox-->Plugins) and (Programfiles-->Mozilla Firefox-->components)
2. Similarly locate Netscape folder inside Real one player in Program files. (Programfiles-->Real-->Real one Player-->Netscape6)
3. Copy nppl3260.dll file to plugins folder of Firefox and nppl3260.xpt file to components folder.
4. The next time you start Firefox it would be ready to play Real media.

1. Workbench -- The overarching container for all windows.

2. Perspective -- A visual container for all the opened views and editors.

3. View -- A visual container to display resources of a particular type. Typically, a view contains a data grid or tree structure. In Figure 1, the tasks view is an example of a view that is used within the Java perspective.

4. Short Cut Bar -- A set of icons that enables the user to quickly access different perspectives.

5. Menu Bar -- A set of content-sensitive actions that gives the user the ability to execute some predefined function.

6. Tool Bar -- A set of context-sensitive actions that enables the user to execute some predefined function. All the items found within the toolbar appear within the menu bar.

7. Editor -- Editors are the primary tool users employ to display and manipulate data. In the case of the Eclipse IDE, developers use an editor to edit Java source files.
