Comment on Eclipse shortcuts for common SVN commands by Herman

Two remarks:
- you still have to enable it in Juno as well
- I also configured Alt + Shift +Y A to show the annotation from SVN. Showing it in Quick Diff is a very useful feature.

Comment on Generate static imports in Eclipse on autocomplete for JUnit Assert, StringUtils and others by Amit Chhajed

Not really. This is pretty much standard feature, at least in Eclipse Juno. And it works for the ones not added to the Favorites.

What is your eclipse version ?

I know of that plugin, but it would be nice, if I was able to open “Switch to Editor..” window from the toolbar. I would like that better than the keyboard shortcut.
Thanks for your advice.

Comment on Share Eclipse perspective layouts across multiple workspaces by Byron

Thanks for that, jim9988. As I mentioned to Thomas, this method will copy over *other* workbench settings as well (not just perspectives) so should only be used if you’re sure you want to overwrite the previous settings. It’s not critical settings though and you can normally set them back quite easily.

Thanks Amit. However, this only works for normal imports but not for static imports, even if I add it to the Favorites. Should I be doing something else?

Comment on Instantly show a class/file in the Package/Project Explorer in Eclipse by Byron

fei, Ctrl+F10 doesn’t seem to toggle link with editor for me. By default it opens the system context menu for an editor or view. However, you can configure the shortcut for “Toggle Link with Editor” in the preferences. I am using Windows though so it might be configured differently from what you have.

I haven't seen a way to add any command to the toolbar without writing your own plugin. To access switch to editor with the mouse, the closest I can think of is if you click Window > Navigation > Switch to Editor... but that's a bit clunky. Are you perhaps looking for something like EditorList Plug-in which is a view that lists all the open editors? It's very old (last updated in 2005) and I don't think it works against Eclipse 4.x anymore but you might find something similar out there.

Comment on Share Eclipse perspective layouts across multiple workspaces by jim9988

Clearly there is a bug with exporting and importing the perspectives from one version of Eclipse to Eclipse 4.2 and even from project X in Eclipse 4.2 to project Y in Eclipse 4.2.

Here is my workaround in Eclipse 4.2.
1. Set up your desired perspectives in project X.
2. Exit Eclipse.
3. Copy from project X .metadata/.plugin/org.eclipse.e4.workbench/workbench.xmi to project Y the same directory.
4. Start Eclipse and the perspective should be available.

Also, there is a short cut that could help in adding static imports. CTL+Shift+M or use menu (Source ==> Add Import)

HTH,

Thanks,

Can I turn this into a button on the toolbar?
Like having a button on the toolbar that opens “Switch to Editor..” window ? (Ctrl+Shift+E)

Comment on Jump to the start and end of methods, loops, blocks and XML tags by Byron

Byron — Sun, 09 Dec 2012 16:48:06 +0000

Thanks Lars, I think you're right but it's only since 4.2 and I was writing for 3.x (see the section on bracket matching support in the New and Noteworthy for 4.2). A nice feature is that pressing it continually jumps to the closing brace, opening brace then back to your original cursor position. I'll update the post to mention the changes in 4.2.

Maybe this has changed but Ctrl+Shift+P jumps for me from any position to the opening and closing bracket of the current block

Comment on The fastest ways to navigate views in Eclipse using the keyboard by Pie

Pie — Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:04:02 +0000

This is brilliant stuff, I’d been thinking that eclispse had no shortcut to switch to the editor, Id been thinking that the editor would be a view as well. Cheers!
