I was recently in need of a stock quote web service in order to display quote information and charts for a corporate website I was working on, so I started looking around for something, free of course. I kept reading that the most common example of web as a service is the stock quote More >

I’ve been burned by Eclipse upgrades before, especially when it comes to running local tomcat servers in the IDE. I think as recent as 3.1 to 3.2 and 3.2 to 3.3, this or that got moved and all my tomcat servers disappeared, or they were there and they just didn’t want to start. More >

Once a project is created in Eclipse Europa of a certain type, it’s not the most straight forward process of changing the project to a different type. For example you have a project that Eclipse considers to be a Java project, but it’s actually a Web Project, you don’t get to take advantage of More >

Ran into some issues on some of our Java sites today and needed a quick fix to protect the sites from malicious Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attempts. If you’re not aware of what XSS is and have websites that have sensitive user data, you may want to read up, you’re probably vulnerable, which means More >

As can be determined from my other posts, I’m a Java Developer by trade and Eclipse is my editor of choice. Now I have gone to the darkside now and then for some good out of the box software, such as Wordpress, which as you may know is written in PHP. The main More >

I recently wrote up an article on SEO Friendly URL’s for J2EE frameworks, while my tomcat implementations and WebSphere 5.1 implementations of the URLRewriteFilter were seemless, I ran into a problem on WebSphere 6.1 that caused me to rack my brain. The Output urls in the page were being rewritten fine, which is usually More >

I’m working on a photo gallery application running on Java 6 using Tomcat 6, JQuery for the client side, and images and xml generated from Picasa. I needed several sizes of images for thumbnails and animations and I wasn’t about to create multiple image sizes with Fireworks (I’m a lazy developer). Doing what More >

There always comes that time, when you’re debugging a Java application, when you get to that compiled code inside that open source jar that you added to make your life easier. Whether there’s an actual bug or you’re just trying to understand some behavior or weirdness you’re getting from calling this third party API, More >

By corporate mandate I’ve been using Oracle JDeveloper 10.1.3.1.0.3984, that version number is ridiculous and ought to tell us something, to develop Java EE web applications on and off for about 6 months now and I’ve never been so frustrated with a development environment in my life. I hear it from seasoned Oracle More >

Try the ctrl and “-” combination in JDeveloper.
Also note that while standing in the application navigator window you can start typing and it will take you to the file that matches what you are typing.

I’ll give it a try, I thought ctrl and – only brought up a list of recently opened files. I’ll also try the navigator, but part of the problem is I deal with files that span multiple projects and the thing I like about the option in Eclipse is it will list files across all open projects.

Checked it out on JDeveloper 10 this morning, ctrl and – only gives you the ability to look for a Java Class, this would be equivalent to Open Type in Eclipse, while Open Resource in eclipse searches every file type. The other nice thing in Eclipse is you can make the navigator auto-synch with the file you have currently open so that when you Open the resource you can see where it is in the directory structure. I know you can synch the Navigator in JDeveloper by right clicking on the open page and choosing select in Navigator, but from a Usability perspective that’s just a pain.

Hi,
I agree with you that, it’s a cool feature, i am happy with the feature, but facing small problem when i search using ctrl shift R it is actually searching in all project that’s why it also searches in build folder, sometimes by mistake if we open it and modify, you might loose all your modifications once you build it.
can we configure the open resource in eclipse? probably i want to add my path within that only it should search.
Thanks in advance

Have you read my article Make Eclipse and Tomcat play nice together, running a Server in the IDE, I’m not sure how your build directories for your project are set up but this may help. I build my classes in my web project directly into the /WEB-INF/classes and I also make the server point directly into the WebContent directory. Since there’s no duplication of jsp’s and classes are in the classes directory Open Resource I don’t seem to have the problem you describe.

ctrl shift t is good too (open type)
Allows you to search for class files inside jars

Combine ctrl-shift-t with Jadclipse and Front End Plus and you can decompile those classes inside the jars. Thanks Lance.

In JDeveloper this is done with Alt+Home

Shay,
I know about being able to synch an individual file, but can you make the navigator follow you automatically as you switch between open files?

Well, actually using the latest 11g Tech preview 2, and there’s a new shortcut which is worth lots!
Im on mac, but windows should be alt-ctrl– to be able to access the file list. Autocompletion is there!
Go to navigate->Go to file if the shortcut’s i posted’s not the right one.
Right on Oracle!!

It’s about time, now do they let you navigate to any resource in the workspace or does it still only work for the currently selected project?

Ctrl Shift R is really a handy feature in eclipse. But I have one question here. When I do it, it shows me all the java as well as class files and I don’t want to see the .class files. Only java or may be other extensions linke .xml, .properties etc.

I personally haven’t run into this issue, but have heard of it happening before. I think it might have to do with your build path and making sure that the src directory is correctly specified and that you’re output directory is a different directory than your source directory, such as bin for java project or /WEB-INF/classes for a web project.

You can mark files or directories derived if you want them to be excluded from the Open Resource list (fortunately it works recursively for directories).

The problem vishwas mentions drives me nuts. It seems to happen in one eclipse install but not another, even on the same machine. I have no idea how to get rid of showing the .class files in the open resource dialog.

Eclipse goto file plugin http://muermann.org/gotofile/ gives the same functionality, additionally you can configure, what directories, file should be excluded, using regex.
