I recently wanted to install Visual Editor on Eclipse Helios. Apparently there is an nice way, which works like a charm for me. For more details you can have a look here: http://sourceforge.jp/projects/tmdmaker/wiki/VisualEditor1.4.0ForHelios

Must have Eclipse plugins

From time to time I develop something on Eclipse. Apart from the usual Eclipse operations (build and test) that I do with the Eclipse Ant and JUnit plugins (they ship with Eclipse for Java), I also wanted to carry out some dependency analysis on existing code. Of course JDepend is the obvious option, but I found a nice article from IBM that suggests some additional plugins that help the coder carry out day to day tasks such as Complexity monitoring and Coding standard analysis.

The following is a summary of the plugins proposed by the article. Of course all of them are opensource/free.

Tool	Purpose	URL for Eclipse plugin
CheckStyle	Coding standard analysis	http://eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net/update/
Coverlipse	Test code coverage	http://coverlipse.sf.net/update
CPD	Copy/Paste detection	http://pmd.sourceforge.net/eclipse/
JDepend	Package dependency analysis	http://andrei.gmxhome.de/eclipse/
Metrics	Complexity monitoring	http://metrics.sourceforge.net/update
