An Interesting Feature For Patrons With Very Low Credit Scores
It is quite interesting to note that the market has a wide range of credit cards for people with low credit scores. Specialized credit cards that can be used by patrons with bad credits are becoming extremely famous almost every other day. This attributes to two major reasons. Firstly, traditional credit card procedures are ruled by tight restrictions and rules. Secondly, the presence of unemployment increases the number of patrons with bad credit auto loans scores. In such cases, shouldn't customers be given a second chance? Shouldn't people with low credit scores have a means of improving their financial stature? If you answered YES to these questions, consider yourself as lucky! This is because I have figured out an interesting solution!
The Sooner The Better
If you are trapped in the vicious circle of low credit scores, trust me, you should find a solution as soon as possible. In accordance with the very old saying, "The Sooner the Better", you should follow procedures that would boost your credit score. For instance, you can make use of "The Bad Credit Card"!
So, are you new to the world of "Bad Credit Cards"? Do you wish to learn more about this astounding option? If yes, Read on!
A Lucrative Deal for Patrons with Low Credit Scores
As suggested by its name, the "Bad Credit Card" is a venture for patrons with low credit scores. It is an unsecure credit card that is found in retail outlets, mega stores and departmental stores. Patrons who apply for this card would be approved in a hassle free order. However, the credit card comprises of very high interests. This is the only risk related with the lucrative option.
How to survive with Bad-Credit Cards?
Moving on, if you wish to get hold of a secured Bad-Credit card, you should have a savings account in the lender's bank. The savings account would be used as a sturdy collateral. The bad-credit card's financial limit would depend on the amount of money in your savings account.
A personal experience
On receiving the so-called bad credit auto loans card, you can kick start into a wild series of purchases. Nevertheless, remember to pay-off the interest at the right time. As I paid the credit card's monthly interest properly, I witnessed a positive change in my credit score. The credit rating increased by 14% in 12 short months.

We are in the process of moving...almost done, finally. The new house is great, bigger house, 2 bathrooms, on a cul de sac...the only con is that we are now 35-60 min (depending on traffic) from our only real sitter, MIL.
The cul de sac neighbors are all super friendly and seem to know everything about each other LOL. My SILs family used to own this house so she knows all the neighbors and had no complaints about any of them other than they can be up in your business a bit. 2 houses over from us is a family with a 15 1/2 year old daughter...who wants to babysit.
We are leaning towards trying her out, we have talked to her a couple times...she seems nice and mature for her age. Also like that her family is a house away should she need them.
Would you guys give her a chance? I know I was babysitting at that age...but kids these days are so much different.
I did like that she has a cell phone but it doesn't text, she said her parents wouldn't allow her a texting phone...seems like good people to me LOL.

NATCHEZ, MS. —Duncan Park in Natchez, MS, served as the host facility for the MAIS South A Tennis Tournament. The two-day event, held last week, featured ten schools and ninety-eight players competing in nine divisions of play.
The Glenbrook Apaches entered seven of the divisions, and a player or players reached the semi-finals in five of the events. "I am so very pleased with the results of our play. We seemed to exhibit the skills that we have developed and the strategies to earn points. The confidence of the students grew with each round of play. Ending the season in manner bodes well for the next season. We will then be able to build from his foundation, " noted coach Wayne Orr.

A 14-year-old says her Chihuahua, named JoJo, was shot and killed by a neighbor Tuesday afternoon on Asbury Park on Detroit's west side.The teen said she let her one-year-old dog out, then went inside. When she came back out, her neighbor told her to put her dog in the house."When he saw my dog running out of the bushes, [he said], 'I'm going to handle him myself,' and then I guess my dog had run back up on him again, and he just shot him," the owner explained.However, the neighbor has a license to carry, and police say he told them he felt he was being attacked by the dog that wasn't on a leash."[He] couldn't have [felt] threatened at all by this little Chihuahua," said the dog's owner. "[The] dog is not big at all."Detroit Dog Rescue took the dog away to be cremated, calling this a sad reality about pet ownership."My sympathy goes out to the young lady losing her dog. It's a shame, and it shouldn't have happened, but also, too, this is a harsh reminder of responsibility," said Dante Dasaro from Detroit Dog Rescue."If the dog was just simply on a leash to go outside, an owner would have better control, but no matter how this played out, it's an unfortunate situation, and it really shouldn't have happened."

Revision as of 10:27, 18 November 2011
This page is a collection of FAQs that is intended to help a developer write Eclipse plug-ins.
This FAQ is intended to be complimentary to the Official Eclipse FAQ and RCP FAQ wiki pages. If you cannot find your question here, you should try checking those other two pages.
General Development
How do I find a class from Eclipse?
See here.
They are meant to mark a string literal as not needing to be externalized (as in, translated / localized). You will often see something like...
if (string.equals("")) { //$NON-NLS-1$ // do stuff }
...this would be a scenario where a string wouldn't need to be localized because it is a string for the code to "manipulate", per se, over it being part of a message to the user at the UI level.
I need help debugging my plug-in...
Are you getting errors like "Unhandled loop event exception" messages in your console with nothing useful after it? Make sure you have -consoleLog as a Program Argument in your launch configuration. You may also want to take a look at these runtime tools.
I'm using third party jar files and my plug-in is not working
Did you add those jars to your project's Java Build Path? Do not use that project property page when developing plug-ins. You have two options.
Option 1: turn the jars into plug-ins Use New > Project > Plug-in Development > Plug-in from existing JAR archive. That will turn one or more jar files into a single jar plug-in. For something like log4j you can then set up Buddy-Classloading, etc.
Prior to 3.2.1, you had to make modifications to the build.properties file. See bug 146042 (RCP export has problems with required plug-ins).
Option 2: include the jars in a plug-in
- Use Import>File System to import the jar files into your plug-in project, say in the <project>/lib directory.
- Use "Add..." to add the jars to the classpath section of the PDE Editor>Runtime tab.
- Use "New..." to add "." library back (with no quotes, of course). Some versions of eclipse automatically do this for you.
- Make sure your binary build exports the new jar files on the PDE Editor>Build tab.
- Save
- On the project, use the popup menu>PDE Tools>Update Classpath to correctly add the jars to the eclipse project classpath.
- Export any packages that you need to using the PDE Editor>Runtime tab
- Save
Common mistakes for option 2
One common mistake is to forget to add the '.' to the classpath after adding your library. If you fail to do this, your plug-in will crash with a message like this:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: lib.foo.Bar at org.eclipse.osgi.internal.loader.BundleLoader.findClassInternal(BundleLoader.java:513) at org.eclipse.osgi.internal.loader.BundleLoader.findClass(BundleLoader.java:429) at org.eclipse.osgi.internal.loader.BundleLoader.findClass(BundleLoader.java:417) at org.eclipse.osgi.internal.baseadaptor.DefaultClassLoader.loadClass(DefaultClassLoader.java:107) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) ...
Example of META-INF/MANIFEST.MF:
// lib.foo MANIFEST.MF Manifest-Version: 1.0 Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2 Bundle-Name: Foo Bundle-SymbolicName: lib.foo;singleton:=true Bundle-Version: 1.0.0.qualifier Bundle-Activator: lib.foo.Activator Bundle-ActivationPolicy: lazy Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: JavaSE-1.6 Import-Package: org.osgi.framework;version="1.6.0" Export-Package: lib.foo Bundle-ClassPath: lib/someRandomDep.jar <--- WRONG Bundle-ClassPath: .,lib/someRandomDep.jar <--- CORRECT
Check out bug 108781.
It talks about how adding a 3rd party jar removes the default "." classpath, and the need to add it back.
Also, Eclipse can handle jars within jars. It expands them into a temporary location during runtime.
What is the IAdaptable interface?
The articles below may be of your interest.
How do I read from a file that I've included in my bundle/plug-in?
The FileLocator class should be able to do most of the things that you want. It can open up a java.io.InputStream as well as provide a java.io.File. You should keep in mind that the java.io.File approach is not going to work if your bundle is packaged as a jar file. To get a reference to your bundle's Bundle instance, you can use Platform's getBundle(String) method. Alternatively, if your bundle's activator subclasses Plugin or AbstractUIPlugin, then you can just call getBundle() from it directly. If your activator simply implements the BundleActivator interface, then from your implementation of the start(BundleContext) method, you can just call getBundle() on the passed in BundleContext to store the Bundle instance in a field for retrieval later. You can also query for Bundle instances from the PackageAdmin service.
// your BundleActivator implementation will probably look something // like the following public class Activator implements BundleActivator { private static Activator instance; private Bundle bundle; public void start(BundleContext context) throws Exception { instance = this; bundle = context.getBundle(); } public void stop(BundleContext context) throws Exception { instance = null; } public static Activator getDefault() { return instance; } public Bundle getBundle() { return bundle; } } // code to retrieve an java.io.InputStream InputStream inputStream = FileLocator.openStream( Activator.getDefault().getBundle(), new Path("resources/setup.xml"), false);
Where do I find the javadoc for the Eclipse API locally? I don't always want to load stuff up in a browser.
You will already have the javadocs for the Eclipse Platform if you installed the Eclipse SDK. The HTML files are stored in the org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv jar file located in your
eclipse/plugins folder. Likewise, you can find JDT APIs in their org.eclipse.jdt.doc.isv jar file and so on.
A plug-in in my 'Eclipse Application' launch configuration is listed as being "out of sync", what should I do?
One known workaround to this problem is to remove your workspace's
.metadata/org.eclipse.pde.core folder. Cleaning and reloading the target platform does not appear to fix this problem.
How do I include native libraries in my bundle?
When you want to use native libraries within your bundle using custom libraries, you can either tell the user to set the appropriate system environment path or include those libraries in the plug-in.
If you wish to include the natives in your bundle, continue reading.
Edit your MANIFEST.MF manually by adding the following lines
Bundle-NativeCode: /libs/yourlib.dll; /libs/someotherlib.dll; osname=win32; processor=x86
(Also see here)
Afterwards, explicitly load all libraries manually using System.loadLibrary().
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(); list.add("yourlib"); list.add("someotherlib"); for (String lib : list) { System.loadLibrary(lib); }
Caution: If you get an UnsatisfiedLinkError when you load a library which depends on a library which hasn't been loaded yet. To overcome this automatically, you can iterate over a list of the required libraries, and throw all out which could be loaded, until the list is empty. Like this, you can compute the correct ordering for loading your libraries.
/** * Iterate through the list of libraries and remove all libraries from the list * that could be loaded. Repeat this step until all libraries are loaded. * The Reason: You can only load a library, if all dependent libraries have * already been loaded. So you need to know the correct ordering from the * leafs to the root. Load the leafs first! */ ArrayList<String> toRemove; int i = 10; //cancel after 10 iterations. You probably forgot to mention a library to load. while (!list.isEmpty() && (i > 0)) { toRemove = new ArrayList<String>(); int j = 0; while (j < list.size() - 1) { try { System.loadLibrary(list.get(j)); toRemove.add(list.get(j)); System.out.println("loaded library " + j + ": " + list.get(j)); } catch (Throwable e) { // System.out.println(e.getMessage()); // System.out.println("error loading lib: " + list.get(j)); } j++; } for (String lib : toRemove) { //System.out.println("removing lib : " + lib); list.remove(lib); } i--; }
Please note that for debugging, e.getMessage() may give you more information for debugging. It can assist you if you mistyped some of the library names for instance.
You should not use this code for production but to compute the correct ordering of your libraries!
User Interface
There's a view / editor that I want to model. How do I find out what its source looks like and how it was designed?
Views and editors generally extend ViewPart and EditorPart respectively. Placing a breakpoint in its constructor when you show the view or editor or invoking the "Plug-in Spy" with the Alt+Shift+F1 keybinding will tell you what the name of that class is. From there, you can inspect the class's code to see how it works. In the case of the user interface elements, you should look at its implementation of the createPartControl(Composite) method.
If you cannot get "Plug-in Spy" to run, you may not have PDE installed.
There's a preference / property page that I want to model. How do I find out what its source looks like and how it was designed?
Put a breakpoint in the constructors of the PreferencePage / PropertyPage class. Open the preferences / properties dialog, and then select the page you are interested about. Now you can identify which class is constructing that page based on the stack trace.
You can also invoke the "Plug-in Spy" with the Alt+Shift+F1 keybinding to retrieve information about the page that your mouse is currently hovering over. If you cannot get "Plug-in Spy" to run, you may not have PDE installed.
There's a window / dialog / popup that I want to model. How do I find out what its source looks like and how it was designed?
There are two usual suspects, an SWT Shell or a JFace Window. Generally, most developers subclass's JFace's Dialog class (which is a subclass of Window) for their dialog needs. So you should first try and put a breakpoint in Window's open() method and see if the window you're trying to model stops at that breakpoint when it has been opened (shown). If not, try Shell's open() or setVisible(boolean) methods.
You can also invoke the "Plug-in Spy" with the Alt+Shift+F1 keybinding to retrieve information about the window that your mouse is currently hovering over. If you cannot get "Plug-in Spy" to run, you may not have PDE installed.
Wayne's blog post may be of help to you.
There's a wizard page that I want to model. How do I find out what its source looks like and how it was designed?
Wizard pages usually extend the WizardPage class. Putting a breakpoint in its constructor will help you identify the class that is creating that page.
You can also invoke the "Plug-in Spy" with the Alt+Shift+F1 keybinding to retrieve information about the wizard that your mouse is currently hovering over. If you cannot get "Plug-in Spy" to run, you may not have PDE installed.
How can I leverage the 'Outline' view?
In your IWorkbenchPart's implementation, you should override the getAdapter(Class) method and return your own implementation of IContentOutlinePage or you can choose to subclass ContentOutlinePage.
public Object getAdapter(Class adapter) { if (adapter.equals(IContentOutlinePage.class)) { return page; } // do NOT forget this line return super.getAdapter(adapter); }
How can I show the perspective bar in my RCP application?
In your concrete subclass of WorkbenchWindowAdvsior, you should override its preWindowOpen() method and then call setShowPerspectiveBar(boolean) on your IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer (which you retrieve by invoking getWindowConfigurer()).
How do I get the perspective bar to show on the top right corner?
The code below will demonstrate this.
PlatformUI.getPreferenceStore().setValue(IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.DOCK_PERSPECTIVE_BAR, IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.TOP_RIGHT);
How do I warn the user that a workbench part that is not currently visible has changed?
From your WorkbenchPart subclass, you can use the code below. Please note that the code below currently only works on views. For notification support in editors, please see bug 86221.
IWorkbenchSiteProgressService service = (IWorkbenchSiteProgressService) part.getSite().getService(IWorkbenchSiteProgressService.class); // notify the user by turning the workbench part's title bold service.warnOfContentChange();
How can I make use of the workbench's browser capabilities?
To leverage the workbench's browser capabilities, you will have to interact with the IWorkbenchBrowserSupport class. The code below will show you how to retrieve an implementation of this interface and open a website with the external browser:
try { IWorkbenchBrowserSupport browserSupport = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getBrowserSupport(); browserSupport.getExternalBrowser().openURL(new URL("http://www.eclipse.org")); } catch (PartInitException e) { // handle the exception }
How do I retrieve the id of a preference page?
You can try the following code below:
public String getId(IPreferencePage page) { PreferenceManager pm = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getPreferenceManager(); List list = pm.getElements(PreferenceManager.PRE_ORDER); for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) { PreferenceNode node = (PreferenceNode) list.get(i); IPreferencePage p = node.getPage(); if (p == page) { return node.getId(); } } return null; }
How do I ask my decorator to decorate items?
You can try the following code below:
How do I get the icon associated with a file or content type?
You can try the following code below:
IContentType contentType = IDE.getContentType(file); ImageDescriptor imageDescriptor = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getEditorRegistry().getImageDescriptor(file.getName(), contentType);
How do I set the selection of an editor or view?
You can retrieve the selection provider from a workbench part from its site.
IWorkbenchPartSite site = workbenchPart.getSite(); ISelectionProvider provider = site.getSelectionProvider(); // this can be null if the workbench part hasn't set one, better safe than sorry if (provider != null) { provider.setSelection(...); }
How do I get the selection of an editor or view?
You can retrieve the selection from the ISelectionService or get it directly from the selection provider of the part from its site.
ISelectionService selectionService = (ISelectionService) serviceLocator.get(ISelectionService.class); ISelection selection = selectionService.getSelection(partId); /* ... */
IWorkbenchPartSite site = workbenchPart.getSite(); ISelectionProvider provider = site.getSelectionProvider(); // this can be null if the workbench part hasn't set one, better safe than sorry if (provider != null) { ISelection selection = provider.getSelection(); /* ... */ }
How do I get progress feedback in the status bar in my RCP application?
Try adding the following piece of code in your WorkbenchWindowAdvisor's preWindow() implementation:
public void preWindowOpen() { getWindowConfigurer().setShowProgressIndicator(true); }
Add an extension to the extension point org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent with a commonWizard element that points to the ID of your wizard.
How do I add those rectangles in my source editor like what JDT does for parameter names during code completion?
To achieve this, you will need to use a LinkedModeModel and a LinkedModeUI. Open the 'Call Hierarchy' on either of the two constructors to find out how to use those two classes.
How do I implement a 'Quick Outline' for my editor?
JDT's implementing class is named 'org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.text.JavaOutlineInformationControl', you should take a look at that.
How do I get an editor's StyledText widget?
Since you cannot access the editor's ITextViewer, you will have to try using the code below.
StyledText text = (StyledText) editor.getAdapter(Control.class);
How can I get the IDocument from an editor?
Assuming the editor adapts to the
ITextEditor interface, you can try the code below.
ITextEditor editor = (ITextEditor) editorPart.getAdapter(ITextEditor.class): if (editor != null) { IDocumentProvider provider = editor.getDocumentProvider(); IDocument document = provider.getDocument(editor.getEditorInput()); }
This code should work on most text editors.
How do I get an IFile given an IEditorPart or IEditorInput?
The code below will demonstrate how to do this.
IFile file = (IFile) editorPart.getEditorInput().getAdapter(IFile.class); if (file != null) { // do stuff }
Note that IFiles are meant to represent files within the workspace and will not work if the file that has been opened is not contained within the workspace. Instead, a FileStoreEditorInput is usually passed into the editor when the editor is opening a file outside the workspace.
How do I hide the tabs of a MultiPageEditorPart if it only has one page?
Adding the code below into your MultiPageEditorPart's subclass should do the trick.
protected void createPages() { super.createPages(); if (getPageCount() == 1) { Composite container = getContainer(); if (container instanceof CTabFolder) { ((CTabFolder) container).setTabHeight(0); } } }
How do I change the editor that is being opened when a marker has been opened?
You can associate the string ID of your editor onto your marker with IMarker's setAttribute(String, Object) method by using the EDITOR_ID_ATTR string constant defined in the IDE class as the attribute name.
marker.setAttribute(IDE.EDITOR_ID_ATTR, "com.example.xyz.editorID");
How can I make my editor respond to a user opening a marker?
When a marker has been opened, the Eclipse Platform tries to help the user out via the IGotoMarker interface. Your editor should either implement the interface or respond to this class by returning an implementation via the getAdapter(Class) method.
public Object getAdapter(Class adapter) { if (adapter.equals(IGotoMarker.class)) { return gotoMarker; } return super.getAdapter(adapter); }
IGotoMarker's gotoMarker(IMarker) method will be called accordingly on the corresponding interface implementation and it is in that method implementation that you can react to a user opening a marker.
Why does the workbench keep opening a new editor every time I open a marker?
Are you using a custom IEditorInput implementation for your editor? You should override Object's equals(Object) method to return true if your custom implementation is equal to another IEditorInput.
- Clients implementing this editor input interface should override Object.equals(Object) to answer true for two inputs that are the same. The IWorbenchPage.openEditor APIs are dependent on this to find an editor with the same input.
How should I let my editor know that its syntax colours have changed?
You should return true when you receive the proper notifications through AbstractTextEditor's affectsTextPresentation(PropertyChangeEvent) method.
How do I close one/all of my editors upon workbench shutdown so that it won't appear upon workbench restart?
See here.
How do I prevent a particular editor from being restored on the next workbench startup?
In your IEditorInput implementation, you can return
null for getPersistable() or
false for exists().
How do I invoke a process and have its output managed by the 'Console' view?
Use DebugPlugin's newProcess(ILaunch, Process, String) or newProcess(ILaunch, Process, String, Map) method. You will probably be calling this in your ILaunchConfigurationDelegate implementation.
How do I associate my executed process with its command line counterpart?
Your IProcess implementation must return a valid string that corresponds to the IProcess.ATTR_CMDLINE attribute. The sample code below will demonstrate how this is done with the DebugPlugin's newProcess(ILaunch, Process, String, Map) method.
String commandLine = "/usr/bin/make"; Map attributes = new HashMap(); attributes.put(IProcess.ATTR_CMDLINE, commandLine); Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(commandLine); // this assumes that 'launch' is a non-null reference to an ILaunch implementation DebugPlugin.newProcess(launch, process, "make", attributes);
How do I capture the output of my launched application like the 'Console' view?
If the underlying IProcess allows for the retrieval of its IStreamsProxy, you can retrieve a corresponding IStreamMonitor and attach an IStreamListener onto it to monitor changes to the stream.
The sample code below will demonstrate how to read the InputStream of an executed process:
String commandLine = "/usr/bin/make"; Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(commandLine); IProcess iProcess = DebugPlugin.newProcess(launch, process, "make", attributes); iProcess.getStreamsProxy().getOutputStreamMonitor().addListener(new IStreamListener(){ public void streamAppended (String text, IStreamMonitor monitor){ //TODO: As per user requirement. } });
How do I run Eclipse launch configurations programmatically?
Let us say you want to contribute to the PackageExplorer and run a CompilationUnit using a context menu. This is how you would run a Java Application using a dynamic launch configuration.
First, an ILaunchConfiguration is created by using its ILaunchConfigurationType. Already existing types can be obtained via the ILaunchManager:
ILaunchConfigurationType javaType = DebugPlugin.getDefault().getLaunchManager().getLaunchConfigurationType(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ID_JAVA_APPLICATION); ILaunchConfigurationWorkingCopy config = javaType.newInstance(null, name);
Then you need so set each attribute to complete your launch configuration. Check out JavaRuntime for further methods, e.g. variable entries.
List<String> classpath = new ArrayList<String>(); classpath.add(JavaRuntime.newArchiveRuntimeClasspathEntry(new Path("/project.web/src/main/java")).getMemento()); classpath.add(JavaRuntime.newArchiveRuntimeClasspathEntry(new Path("/lib/dev-2.0.0.jar")).getMemento()); classpath.add(JavaRuntime.newRuntimeContainerClasspathEntry(new Path( JavaRuntime.JRE_CONTAINER ), IRuntimeClasspathEntry.STANDARD_CLASSES, project).getMemento()); classpath.add(new DefaultProjectClasspathEntry(project).getMemento()); config.setAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_CLASSPATH, classpath); config.setAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_DEFAULT_CLASSPATH, false); List<String> resourceTypes = new ArrayList<String>(); List<String> resourcePaths = new ArrayList<String>(); resourcePaths.add("/project.web"); resourceTypes.add("4"); config.setAttribute(LaunchConfiguration.ATTR_MAPPED_RESOURCE_TYPES, resourceTypes); config.setAttribute(LaunchConfiguration.ATTR_MAPPED_RESOURCE_PATHS, resourcePaths); config.setAttribute(ILaunchManager.ATTR_APPEND_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES, true); config.setAttribute(JavaMainTab.ATTR_CONSIDER_INHERITED_MAIN, true); config.setAttribute(JavaMainTab.ATTR_INCLUDE_EXTERNAL_JARS, true); config.setAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_MAIN_TYPE_NAME, "project.Main"); config.setAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_PROGRAM_ARGUMENTS, "-startupUrl index.html"); config.setAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_PROJECT_NAME, "project.web"); config.setAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_VM_ARGUMENTS, "-Xmx256M");
Now you can either run it directly in Eclipse...
DebugUITools.launch(config, ILaunchManager.RUN_MODE);
...or save this configuration, which is great for verifying the attributes.

How do I make a p2 repository?
This is not the only way to create a repository, and it may not be the best way, but it worked for me. YMMV.
- Initially, create a project in your workspace called "UpdateSite".
- If you choose a different name, some of the following steps will need modification.
- Export the updated plugins and features:
- Select the features you want to release in the Package Explorer view.
- Choose File -> Export from the menu.
- Plug-In Development -> Deployable Features, click Next
- Select features to update
- Destination Directory should be the UpdateSite project in your workspace.
- Turn off "generate repository metadata"
- Click Finish
- Edit your category.xml and add any new or updated features to it, in the correct categories.
- Generate the artifacts.xml file using the ant build.xml file below with target="artifacts"
- Generate the content.jar with categories:
- Launch an eclipse application with the following parameters:
- -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher.CategoryPublisher
- -consolelog
- -repositoryName "My Update Site"
- -metadataRepository file:${project_loc:UpdateSite}
- -categoryDefinition file:${project_loc:UpdateSite}/category.xml
- -categoryQualifier
- -compress
Here is the Ant build file for generating artifacts.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="project" default="artifacts"> <target name="artifacts"> <delete file="artifacts.xml"/> <delete file="content.xml"/> <delete file="artifacts.jar"/> <delete file="content.jar"/> <p2.publish.featuresAndBundles repository="file:${basedir}" repositoryname="My Update Site" source="${basedir}" compress="true" /> </target> </project>
How do I add files to the root of the installation directory?
You can include [1] with your build.
PDE/Build will take the feature root files and generate p2 artifacts with touchpoint stuff to do the right thing at install time.

Roasted Chicken Thighs with Black Bean Garlic Marinade
(Makes 12 chicken thighs, recipe inspired by Chicken Drumsticks Two Ways from Family Food.)
12 bone-in chicken thighs
Marinade Ingredients:
2 T Black Bean Garlic Sauce (sold near Asian foods in most supermarkets)
1 T olive oil
1 T soy sauce
1 T Thai Chili Garlic Paste (I like Dynasty brand, also sold near Asian foods)
1 T fresh squeezed lime juice
1 T Agave nectar (or use Splenda or Stevia-in-the-raw granulated sweetener)
When ready to cook, remove chicken from refrigerator and let it come to room temperature while oven preheats to 325 F. Arrange chicken on roasting pan, keeping as much marinade clinging to the chicken as you can. Roast about 50 minutes, turning several times and brushing with sauce/marinade that collects at the bottom of the pan. Chicken is done when you can cut into a piece and juice runs clear, and when it's firm and lightly browned. Serve hot.

By: hamdemon x Show Full PostHi. I've been listening since Garnett appeared on G4's Feedback a few years ago. Love the show, you folks are fun AND intelligent and make good arguments. You're at the top of my list as far as gaming podcasts go. (Here it comes...) It's a tiny little thing but... please let Andrea finish a sentence. I'm listening at the 1:07 mark when she starts talking about Dead Space and Mass Effect. Calling her a firecracker just cause (2 was a great game!) she's gone passionate about something and repeatedly interrupting her afterwards feels awkward. I'm guessing neither Andrea nor Nicole have complained about this but it feels like the gals aren't getting the same mic respect as the guys here. (PS: I'm a 50 year old male). I don't think there are any misogynists on your team, I'm not accusing anyone of being overbearing, but this is the 3rd podcast wherein I've heard the fellas interrupting the women and, maybe it's just me, but it kinda stands out. Having got that off my chest please keep up the good work and PLEASE let us know what's up with the gang from G4. I saw Sterling and Klepeck authoring magazine articles for a while but they seem to have gone off elsewhere.`Jan 08, 2013 11:41am PST

By: MononokeTeapot x Show Full PostLong time listener, first time posting :)
In reference to services potentially being a major differentiator between the next gen consoles...
Hulu isn't available in the UK, BBC iPlayer isn't available in the States. Will this effect the console war? E.g. Microsoft's Xbox more popular in US, Playstation more popular in Europe, purely because Microsoft got an exclusive HBO deal? (Extreme example obviously.)
How would you feel reviewing a console when country specific services could be a major factor? Would you need to limit your review to the US version?
Anyway, thanks for such an awesome show. Saturday mornings are my listening time as it's out too late to catch Friday in the UK. It's the little differences. Over here it's called The Weekend Royale with cheese.
P.S. So great to hear it's not just me that loved Kingdoms of Amalur!

By: PrimeFiveByFive x Show Full PostThe biggest thing the FIFA team have over the MADDEN dev team is Pro Evolution Soccer. Even if the pro evo series has lost some luster with reviewers and even old fans of the series, A lot of the improvements FIFA has had over the years have been thanks to competition. Both series benefit from having a rival game series that introduces new ideas and game play mechanics. Everything from 360 degree movement to the manual defense systems introduced in both games are results of that. Having another series they can jump ship to gives disappointed fans a lot more clout than angry message board posts alone.Jan 03, 2013 9:44am PST

By: Videosta x Show Full PostI have decided to try to completely divorce myself from caring about other people's opinion on Wii U. I was totally against the idea when I first heard about it, but have been in love with it since I opened the box Christmas day.
The gamepad is the best controller I have ever used. All of the good bits of the 360 remote combined with an actually useful iPad for gaming. I wanted to love my iPad. As a father my time with the tv is being monopolized by my son. I can now play games like Darksiders 2 while he enjoys the shows he wants to watch.
I love the games I have for it. Sure, I could have played some of them sooner by getting them for my PS3 or 360, but I waited. I'm very glad I did.
My wife is actually playing it with me a ton. It's everything I hoped the Wii would be, but not suckey.
Is it perfect? Hell no. But it is a great system already.
I can understand anyone feeling different from me. This device is just perfectly suited for where I am in life right now.Dec 31, 2012 7:03pm PSTI have decided to try to completely divorce myself from caring about other people's opinion on Wii U. I w... : Videosta

Lastly I guess I just don't understand your guys hate of fail states to me there has to be the fear of failure for there to be success and that applies to every genre, yet for some reason it is okay in XCOM but not in a stealth game? Which is where my averse reaction to Dishonored comes in, to an extent I felt playing that game like TOO much of a badass (mostly due to the Teleport thing) which to me doesn't work with Stealth in the slightest. The odds have to be ever stacked higher the better you should be getting at the game along with your inventory, which is why games like Thief or Metal Gear Solid works so well for me.
This probably ties into a larger point that I have been thinking about which is why a whole bunch of indie games appealed to me so much more this year. I increasingly find I want and look for more pure game experiences, that lock in on what they do and knock it out of the park and games like a Dishonored or a Darksiders or a Farcry feel like melting pots of all the cool trends in video games lathered with an singular art style but with a jack of all trades master of none approach to mechanics.

So not to start another Walking Dead thread but something else was clicking in my head hearing people talk about how this game is the Lightning Strike that so many of their other games haven't been. First let me preface this with I have no interest in playing the game for a couple reasons and find it extremely interesting to view it from the outside.
My question is plainly how much is the success of The Walking Dead brand secretly / subconsciously buffering the reception of the game. Is the fact that the comic is on issue 100 and is one of the most successful comics of the year and that the TV show is the most watched show on TV or close to it playing into the acceptance and perhaps buffering the game some?Jan 02, 2013 4:39am PST
By: RedSwirl x Show Full PostDid Jeff play the original Crysis? I definitely agree with his opinions on Crysis 2 -- I thought it was one of the best shooters of that year as well due to its more open-ended arena design style as opposed to all the scripted corridors. The thing is though, the first Crysis did the same thing but far better.
The "arenas" in the first game were massive -- probably bigger than anything else on consoles right now unless you count open-world games. Crysis has probably the largest set-piece levels to ever grace a linear first person shooter. Crysis 2 was a downgrade from that, and I think the problem with Crysis 3 is that we feel it's going to be a continuation of 2 rather than 1.Jan 01, 2013 4:38pm PST
By: RedSwirl x Show Full PostAt the end of the discussion those guys are totally right about next gen console gaming being about services just as much as games (if not more). Honestly, I think the advances of current gen were more about services than the games themselves, at least in terms of the playing of games.
The Xbox 360's real killer app was Live. People want to stay connected to their friends on Live and that's probably a leading reason why multiplatform games sell more on 360. For a long time this gen people also constantly compared the service to PSN. Nintendo is already trying to offer its own thing with MiiVerse, which many Wii U owners have said is one of the most compelling things to do with the console. Hell, MiiVerse in itself is already a kind of gaming social network that I honestly hope Sony and Microsoft rip off.
On the show though you guys were talking about these services going across media, turning consoles into general set-top-boxes, and I think that's what they're going to have to do in order to survive.
The reason dedicated handhelds are becoming less relevant is because of other handheld devices that do damnear everything. That kind of convergence hasn't quite taken hold in the living room yet. Other people are trying with Smart TVs and other set top boxes and whatnot, and I think game consoles have an opportunity to take their place in that market.
Microsoft is totally gonna turn the next Xbox into the living room extension of Windows 8 (even though I honestly think a gaming HTPC serves the same purpose better). They might get families to buy it as an all-in-one center-of-your-living-room device that happens to play games. I'm not sure whether Sony (well, all of Sony) will get the message beforehand despite having all the resources to do the same thing.Jan 01, 2013 4:34pm PST

I think people will be surprised by Nintendo strong E3. Sony and MS have been quiet ? So is Nintendo, they've been preeping HUGE games in the shadows for years.

"343 Industries is learning the hard way, what happens when you abandon the identity of your game and the desires of your core fanbase to pursue the almighty 'Call of Duty audience'.
Halo Charts tracks the online populations of the multiplayer playlists. Unlike Microsoft's Xbox Live charts, simply playing Spartan Ops or the single-player while your Xbox is online doesn't count towards these numbers. While Major Nelson claims Halo 4 was the second most-played game on Xbox Live behind CoD last month, the real numbers show a different story:
Speaking as a long-time Halo fan, my interest in Halo 4 multiplayer is cratering. And it makes me sad. The core gameplay, buried somewhere beneath the stupid leveling system, the random ordinance drops, the lackluster map design, the [seeming] abandonment of skill-based matchmaking and the culling of multiplayer modes, is still beautifully elegant, competitive and satisfying.
But it has been dumbed down, or in better words, CoDified. I don't hate CoD as much as some. I certainly don't like it as much as Halo, but I see it's appeal. It is a blindingly fast, visceral game that rewards hand-eye coordination above all else and lets players tinker with loadouts to maximize their preferred playstyle. I really do get the appeal. The problem for Halo 4, is that now it's stuck in limbo between the two games - it's not fast or visceral enough to beat CoD at it's own game, and it's no longer pure, tactical or competitive enough to appeal to longstanding Halo fans.
343i could, in theory, stop the bleeding by putting in a host of 'classic' playlists that remove ordinance, spawn weapons on the map in traditional fashion, and limit what weapons you can put in a loadout. But I think the damage is done, and I question if they're too proud to admit the direction they took the multiplayer was the wrong one.
In a genre composed 99% of CoD copy-cats Halo had it's own multiplayer flavor. And now they've tossed it aside to be another copy-cat."Dec 31, 2012 2:42pm PST*Posted this a few weeks ago, and had the beginnings of some good discussion but kinda got overshadowed b... : MHSilver

I think Jason was right I think services will be the big pull for the next consoles. I think the Xbox 360 was a trojan horse I think this time it will be like a basic utility. Microsoft and in some ways Sony have spent the last couple of years building up the infrastructure. Now they need to present a new front end to show off that infrastructure.
I think Garnett is right Microsoft has done a good job of centering everything around the Windows 8 UI, but I do think they have ironically dropped the ball on gaming on those other platforms outside of the Xbox.Dec 30, 2012 11:42am PSTSmartglass is still at the infant state.

Today I've got a film starring the perfect woman, Milla Jovovich. She's been in a handful of good movies, and a bucketful of lousy ones. This one is really of the latter variety, but what are you gonna do? Know what I mean?
I mean, c'mon. It's Milla J. Of course I'll still watch it.
.45 (2006)
Netflix description:
"Trapped in a dangerous life of crime, Kat (Milla Jovovich) wants to find a way out, but first, she'll have to escape from Big Al (Angus Macfadyen), a vicious drug dealer with a powerful hold over her. The situation becomes even more tense when Big Al's trusted henchman (Stephen Dorff) falls for Kat. Soon, the two devise a complex plot to take out the crime lord. This thriller is a potent mixture of jealousy, revenge and intrigue."
If anything, .45 proves that Milla J really DOES have genuine acting talent (I've always known this to be the case, but there are certain elements in the movie-going public that can only measure acting ability by how many gold statuettes an individual has been awarded -- sadly, Milla has none, and ain't never gonna get none).
Some of the violent scenes in this film are so gut-wrenchingly realistic that even I found myself cringing. Milla gets the living daylights beaten out of her by her insane petty criminal of a boyfriend, Big Al, and boy does she do a good job of making it seem authentic. If you wanna hear a woman shrieking in agony for ten minutes, then .45 is for you! Really, Milla is subjected to some serious poundings that seem to drag on for far too long. I'm not sure if these scenes enhance the film's realism or just make us uncomfortable. Either way, they're well-played.
Eventually, Milla decides to kill Big Al, and enlists the help of Stephen Dorff to pull it off. Things get more complicated when a lesbian social worker becomes involved, and other stuff happens. The plot, although simple, does keep us wondering most of the time what will happen next. In your average movie, the abused girlfriend would somehow solve everything and walk away, but from the get-go, it's pretty obvious that .45 is not your average movie, so it's difficult for us to predict until the very end how things will pan out.
What's really interesting here are the characters. I liked all of them -- Milla J, Dorff, the lesbian...heck, I even kind of liked Big Al. Some of the interactions we get to watch between Milla, Al and various gun runners can be a little ridiculous (come on, how tough can these people really be?), but they're also fun, and I enjoyed the clever flourishes of profanity that stream from each character's mouth for practically the entire 90 minutes of this film. Consider the violence, cursing, and graphic sex scenes, and one thing's for certain: .45 will never be shown on TV!
In the end, .45 is a well-acted, and even dramatically intense, little film that suffers from one major problem: it's just painful to watch. I mean, sure -- it's a well-crafted picture; but is there any reason to see it? What do we gain from watching a woman battered and bashed like this? The story here is fairly interesting, but really, the world's probably better off if it's just not told.

Ashley - 25, Chris - 27, Elizabeth - 9-22-04, Alexis - 12-19-08
I confess 2010 really sucks hairy donkey balls . . .
Oh, I probably have a job if I want it. I'm sure I"ll apply, and would be dam ned surprised if I didn't get it, as I have been told I will always have a job here and they basically created this one with me in mind. Problem is, I don't like it. I've read over the description several times.
It's mostly because it will involve significantly more travel - to the other campuses. One is not bad and is an easy daytrip - 2 hours away. The other campuses are 4 hour drives away.
All I can think about is nights away from my little boy, which I'm so not ready for yet, or long ass days stuck in a car.
I'm so sorry Krista, that really bites!!
Oh no, Krista. What a crappy way to start the new year.
Congrats on the new job Ashley, that sounds like an AWESOME place to work.
Man, I'm so far behind still here, I have missed a whole bunch of 'congrats' and "I'm sorrys".
Oh darn, I thought Norah was asleep but she is calling for me in her saddest voice asking me to sing. gotta run...
I confess they told my mom she will need to continue chemo her whole life. Thankfully, they have found one that for the moment she is tolerating well. The cancer isn't growing but it's not going away.
Her and my dad offered to come over and babysit tomorrow night. She loves being with Savana and Kai. Her and my dad tell me all the time what a joy they are and it makes me feel so lucky that my kids have such a great, close relationship with them. I'm so glad we left Hawaii to live here...even if it is below 0 degrees out. And I used to live 3 blocks from the beach. Family trumps weather.
So dbf and I are going out! It's been a really long time since we've hung out in public without kids.
Ashley I must've missed that you got your job! YAY For you!! Congrats!
Ashley - 25, Chris - 27, Elizabeth - 9-22-04, Alexis - 12-19-08
You can always vacation at the beach...but if you really like your family, there is nothing like being close to them. I hate being as far as I am from mine...they in Milwaukee, Chicago and in between. But at least I know that we are 4-6 hours drive away...and that can be done in a day easily for a weekend visit or if we really needed to, we could be there or they could be here in just a quick few hours.
Dh could have had a job in the oil industry in TX making 6 figures or very close to it...but not only would we have been in TX so far from family but he would have been pretty constantly traveling and away from me. Family being close easily won out over money (and warmer weather!)
Besides, these below zero days don't last forever! And there is something beautiful in these frigid days...the ones so cold but the sky is such a brilliant blue with not a trace of clouds and the sun is so bright it hurts.
I'm sorry though that the news about your mom wasn't better. Not growing is good but it has to be hard to hear that it's not going away and the chemo will have to continue.
Me, my work pants end of needing to be the LB right fits and they aren't cheap. I have such a hard body to fit with a big rear and hips and narrow shoulders and a narrow waist (still big but narrow to my hips).
I have one pair of jeans, 2 black pants..different styles, and one grey pant. Yes I confess, I wear the same pants to work multiple days each week.
I need to buy new pants...but I am dreading it because I think I went up a size And don't even get me started on shirts. I still do not see a size Large when I look in the mirror, but oh guess what, I am.
I have another scenario to run past you guys...
Let's say you are not horny often at all and when you are, "making the first move" is not your style. (read: mega-submissive, LOL) Say one night you just wanted hubby to sweep you up in his arms and make sweet sweet love to you. (was that TMI?)
Ok so he asks you if you're in the mood tonight (hoping it's that one day a month, you know?) and you say yes. You say "let's go upstairs" and you get into bed together. You kinda lay there hoping he'll kiss you or something but nothing happens. Turns out Mr. I'm Horny Every Day Multiple Times a Day, is not. On the one day that you want it. He gets all in a tizz when you won't get him off at every whim, but the second you want it, he says "I need some motivation". To sleep with his own wife. Feeling really hurt that your husband who is supposedly horny all the time now supposedly "needs some motivation" you roll over. Hubby falls asleep in under a minute.
I woke his ass up and it turned into another major argument--as always, the issue at hand always balloons up into something much bigger for me. Him not being horny that night turned into me thinking he likes to play mind games with me. He likes to complain that I'm never horny and he never gets any, and the day I am horny, he tells me he "needs motivation". WTF?
Seriously, should I have just sucked it up and made the first move or is it weird that he who is supposedly ready to go multiple times a day didn't really feel like it the second I said I wanted to?
I cannot wait until our therapy session on Thursday. It's gonna be a good one!

Tree trimmers were hard at work in Sterling Heights on Monday maintaining the trees that help make the city beautiful.For more than two dozen years, Sterling Heights has received the Tree City USA award from the National Arbor Foundation. The program recognizes communities with a commitment to forestry, caring for and maintaining trees."We're a major municipal community and suburban community, and we do have a large forest here that runs alongside the Clinton River," said Steve Guitar, the city's community relations director. "You go back there and it's like being up north."Guitar said last year the city spent about half a million dollars on forestry to maintain more than 4,000 trees and plant 200 new ones."It improves our quality of life. It improves the aesthetics of the neighborhood. It keeps property values up, and I think it really enhances our neighborhoods," Guitar said.What's more, trees increase property values, and they absorb carbon dioxide and put out oxygen. The Arbor Day Foundation says they can even help stimulate the economy by attracting new business and tourism.Sterling Heights has a forester in the Public Works Department and a tree replacement program. The city also has a tree preservation ordinance that requires developers to preserve a large percentage of trees or replace those lost during construction."We were one of the first in the state to have that ordinance in place, so we've been honored for that in the past," Guitar said.The city is also proud to have started a new curbside recycling program this spring. The mayor says Sterling Heights cares about the environment and providing a good quality of life for its residents.
