#eclipseide — Public Fediverse posts

I've been messing about with #Rust lately and using #eclipseide with it. I had to solve a couple of problems so I wrote up what I did.

From “Stop in main” to launch groups that chain tests: #EclipseIDE has grown a full ecosystem of debug options. @manojnp documents how devs actually use them today.

❓️ Question to the Eclipse experts:

Is there a (somewhat) simple way to change the syntax coloring of only one specific keyword?

(In my case, I am using Eclipse CDT, and I want to change the color of only one C preprocessor directive)

A helpful #NullPointerException, a trigger point & a working set—three features that can turn a week-long bug hunt into a half-hour fix. @manojnp shows how #EclipseIDE uses them in real-world #Debugging.

Can Skia and modern SWT make #EclipseIDE relevant again? A bold bet on speed, simplicity and open collaboration.

Who do I need to pay to get the eclipse IDE m2e POM editor to follow the formatting rules of the XML file editor?

And no, I don't want to open the pom.xml in the XML file editor, and I don't want to use IntelliJ either.

You don’t debug the same way on a greenfield project and a legacy monolith. @manojnp shows how #EclipseIDE’s method, lambda & exception breakpoints adapt when the codebase is older than your laptop.

Multiple configs, prototypes, & tracing tabs—#Debugging in #EclipseIDE is more versatile than most devs realize. To see how these options shape real workflows, @manojnp takes you through them.

Launching in debug mode sounds trivial—until you need JUnit keep-alive, plugin tracing, or launch groups. This #EclipseIDE deep dive shows the hidden knobs that matter in real projects.

@EclipseFdn @EclipseJavaIDE #Debugging

A race condition, a flaky test & a deadline—sometimes one breakpoint is your lifeline. In #EclipseIDE, they’re more than “pause here”: conditional stops, trigger chains & watchpoints turn chaos into clarity, says @manojnp.

When a bug only appears on the second run at 3 a.m., logging won’t save you. Breakpoints can—if you know how to arm them. @manojnp on #EclipseIDE features that catch the ghost without touching a line.

🚨 The new #EclipseIDE 2025-06 release is live!

Upgrade now for enhanced #Java support: https://eclipseide.org/

#opensource #developertools

A few days ago, I upgraded my #EclipseIDE to the latest version, 2025-03, 4.35.0 (I had a 2023 version).
I noticed that searching in an editor uses a new find/replace overlay on top-right by default. I discovered that this new feature was introduced in Eclipse 4.33.

If you are like me and want the old good Find/Replace window back, you can uncheck the “Use find/replace overlay” setting. See here: https://eclipse.dev/eclipse/news/4.33/platform.html#find-replace-overlay

That’s a wrap on #JavaLand 2025! 🎉

We shared the latest from #JakartaEE, #Adoptium & #EclipseIDE, prepped visitors for summer with our branded fitness towels, and had great conversations about the future of Java.

Thanks for an inspiring event! 👏

been using my #pinephonepro with the #nexdock daily for all my engineering classes for about a month now, and loving it so far! some programs i was pleasantly surprised by include #logisim, #rnote, and #eclipseide. i didn't expect these programs to work well but they are actually so useful and work just as well, if not a bit slower, than on my thinkpad. up next i'll need to install #wine and #ltspice for more circuit design :)

I've been a fan of Sage (https://www.sagemath.org/) and CoCalc (https://cocalc.com/) for some time, and I would now like to complain.

Sage is an open source computer algebra system which is written in Python, but for technical reasons comes with its own version of the Python interpreter. The first IDE I used regularly was Eclipse, and I used to know the arcane steps needed to make it use the Sage Python binary on various systems.

I switched to PyCharm some years ago, but I have only been using it to write pure Python. Now I want to use Sage, so I tried doing the same gymnastics I used to do with Eclipse and was annoyed.

I decided that being forced to work online wasn't a big deal, so I'd use CoCalc instead. Even though CoCalc was made with Sage in mind, there does not seem to be direct support for running Python modules with Sage, only the notebook style is promoted. It seems absurd to me that after all these years it is still so much work to simply use Sage in a Python project with an IDE.

In addition to this, Sage's support for the kinds of calculations I want to do at the moment is quite immature, with TODO in many, many places.

I want to use Sage since it combines many useful (and fast) libraries that I need, but I think I need to just accept that I should start building my own solution that works for my purposes.

I know that I could contribute to Sage, but I feel like the weight of changing what I need to change is so much, and that I would get my calculation done faster by just doing it myself.
