I have the following odd problem:
I am working on a jdt feature. The ant script that generates the jars, signs them, etc, has worked like a charm for months.
I downloaded Mars, installed the feature successfully once(fully functional plugin). I had to make some changes, regenerated the jars and all hell broke loose.
Suddenly the icons were not in the path, tried to reinstall ide from scratch several times and now the feature fails to install silently.
After the signature verification dialogs, it silently fails. The plugins and features dirs have the installed components but the plugin doesn't load at all.
I deleted .eclipse and .p2 several times to no avail.
Clue?
Thanks in advance!

I used Nuxeo Studio for research purposes and created a Schema and added it to my local server using the Nuxeo Chrome Extension is hot deploy.
Now, what if I need to uninstall the package?
I tried to use the ./nuxeoctl mp-uninstall <package-name-installer-by-studio> to achieve that. Apparently, it worked. However, my local server fails to start again and, when the hot reload is called again, it hangs up saying:
data/myWorkflow.zip not found in <path>/nuxeo-server-10.10-tomcat/nxserver/bundles/<package>.jar
also:
org.nuxeo.ecm.webengine.app.WebEngineExceptionMapper] org.nuxeo.ecm.core.api.NuxeoException: Failed to invoke operation: Service.HotReloadStudioSnapshot
I am led to think that this is badly done/programmed: there should be an error proof way to uninstall the packages installed by Studio, since Studio won't be the only tool to be used in a big project.
I managed to install/uninstall the package with another strategy: I didn't hot reload it with Nuxeo Chrome Extension. I just downloaded the package and installed it using Nuxeo-CLI. Then, I was able to uninstall it without any issues.
I noticed that this gives me more control since I can keep the package that was generated, I can inspect what changes were made (and understand what happened in a more open way), and then install/uninstall it manually.
Since I didn't figure out the problem that is with Nuxeo Chrome Extension, I chose not to use it for a while.
I'm developing an eclipse plugin and in order to test it I have to install it into my eclipse application regularly. However as I dont't want to change the version of my plugin every time I want to test a new feature I always uninstalled the plugin from within eclipse and afterwards I'd go to the eclipse folder and delete my plugin out of the plugins folder (and delete the respective entries in the eclipse XML-files).
That worked great in windows but I have recently switched to Linux (Mint) and I just found out that my plugin is no longer located in the plugins folder inside the eclipse program directory. Therefore I can't really delete the old plugin whcih then prevents the new version of the plugin from installing properly.
Does anyone have an idea about where eclipse copies the installed plugin or a differerent approch to actually completely uninstall (delete) an installed eclipse plugin?
Okay after searching through my whole filesystem I found it out myself.
Eclipse has a hidden folder in the home directory named .eclipse in which each installed eclipse version has it's sub-directory and in there there is also a plugins and a features folder that then contain the externally installed plugins and features.
It also contains the corresponding artifacts.xml.
I'm not sure whether this behaviour is specific to the Linux Mint OS or rather a new "feature" of Eclipse Neon but if anyone is having the same problem that's were I found it.
Help -> Installation Detail.
Then click the plugin you want removed then press "Uninstall...".
Note: there is a "Plug-ins" tab in the Installation Detail dialog. This is misleading; you are not to click it.
Ps. It might be easier to test the plugin, during development, on a run-time workbench.
I am very experienced with eclipse, using it since its Juno days, but today i have ran into one of the strangest bugs and want to know if any of you have had this bug and if you may have an answer as to how to fix it. (Or at least a work-around to getting my favorite IDE working again).
I recently updated to Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) and it seems nothing wants to work like it did when i had Wiley, namely eclipse. I used the installer to download the IDE and launched it and i got a strange issue where the IDE would load and ask for a workspace, but would then show a dialog box that is using the screen buffer as its data.
Screenshot with strange eclipse launch
I then thought that it may be an issue with the downloaded file (Corruption or something) so i downloaded the tar from eclipse.org directly. I extracted the tar and launched the eclipse executable and it loaded up and asked for a workspace again and began to launch, and finally it came up, the same old back buffered box.
So i got the idea to run it from the console and got this output, but i have no idea what it means. I saw no stack traces so im sure its fine (Again it may be a GTK error, so any ubuntu people this is where you come in)
Console Run with the same problem
I started to think it was my java version (Oracle JDK 9 for Linux)that was the problem so i did a test compile of the hello world program and everything was fine, it all worked.
(Would add screen shots but im new here so i dont have enough reputation to do so :( )
Any idea what it might be? Any help would be great!
I found the problem, i installed the latest version of java in the apt repository. This version was JDK9 which Eclipse does not support (At least not until Eclipse Oxygen). I purged the computerof JDK9 and installed JDK8 and everything worked fine!
Moral of the story, don't use JDK9 on Neon
I am running a dual boot windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04, I have similar issue where I can see all the file menu and the eclipse launched on the tool bar, I have selected the application and used ctrl+WindowsKey+left,right to split the application to half of my screen and then magically it appeared,Then I adjusted to fit to my screen.
Would a fresh install work? I didn't have any issues. Perhaps ask this on ask ubuntu, too.
I just made a clean install, as I do every year, of my linux system (ubuntu) on my notebook.
I just wanted to open-up eclipse from my (old) workspace, where all my code from the past 12 months is - but eclipse doesn't show a single package!
My assumption is that I used an older version of eclipse up until yesterday before the clean install, and that the version I installed today is newer, thereby doesn't recognize my worksapce(s!). Is this assumption correct? if so, Does anyone know how I can figure out which version of Eclipse I was using when working on the old Workspace, so that I can download that exact same version again?
The absolut worst-case scenario would be to c/p all classes and packages manually into the new eclipse, but it's over a 1000 classes - so that might be too time-consumming.
An help would be greatly appreciated, since there actually are 2 projects from work in those workspaces... ^^
Well, after Downloading Eclipse Mars, I found a solution. Although switching workspaces, or even importing the old workspaces didn't work, I found out that if I started eclipse from the old workspace, even though package explorer would stay empty, it would suffice to define a new java project with the exact same name of one of the projects inside the old workspace, for eclipse to instantly load-up the docs contents.
This not as much a solution, then a work-around... but still, fixed the problem!
I installed Enide Studio yesterday (decompressed the zip to /opt/enide-studio and had to make eclipse executable). I then attempted to import an existing project. It seemed to successfully import, but the project explorer shows nothing (it's completely blank). I restarted the IDE, etc. -- still nothing.
Figuring it actually did not import the project, I tried again to import it this time from its git repo. I was met with the error that the project already exists in the workspace; so, it's there, but the IDE is not showing it.
I then tried creating a new Node.js project. It again seems to successfully create a project, but the UI is still white in all panels. I see the perspective buttons for JS, Node, etc., but panels like Console are also completely blank white.
Also, attempting to create an express project fails outright because it can't find express (despite installing it as directed with npm install -g express).
I've logged out and back in as well as a reboot. Still nothing...
Has anyone else encountered this and have a work-around/fix for Enide Studio?
You have too many issues put together as one.
Answering what is in question topic: "Nodeclipse does not show projects in Mint 17 64-bit"
Nodeclipse is plugin to Eclipse and displaying project in Project Explorer is implemented inside Eclipse core module called Eclipse Workbench. You can switch to other perspective e.g. Java and see that actually it displays the same list of projects.
General recommendation is to get latest Eclipse 4.4 Luna and install Nodeclipse (or get Enide Studio released after June 2014, not yet)
For other issues create separate tickets
