Installed Eclipse GWT plugin, but not a web application project

Question

I have an Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers (3.7) installed on Windows XP, and I installed the Google plugin and the GWT SDK, but even though the plugin appears as installed, I still do not get the File> New> Web Application Project as it should be. And no icon with a "g" in the blue circle on the toolbar. What am I missing?

thanks

Here's what I see on the Plugins tab of the Eclipse Installation Details screen:

Google App Engine Java SDK 1.7.6 Google Plugin Eclipse 3.7 Platform 3.2.2.v201303261859-r3l-r37 Google Plugin Eclipse Platform 3.2.2.v201303261859-r3l-r37 Google Plugin Eclipse Shared Platform 3.2.2.v201303261859-r3l-r37 Google Web Toolkit SDK 2.5.1

Answer 1

Go to the Eclipse Market Place page → Look for the GWT plugin → Download the Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.7

It will take some time to download and install all the packages and plugins. But once this is done, you can see the google icon in the toolbar.

Also follow the link below. https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/usingeclipse

Answer 2

I had the same problem when I followed the GWT tutorial and fixed the problem.

You can go:

Eclipse → Help → Installing New Software → Working with

Then paste any of these URLs, but change the indigo or helios for your distribution of the Eclipse IDE.

Indigo Update Website - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/helios

Wait and Eclipse will show you all the options.

Check the option:

Web, XML, Java EE, and OSGi Enterprise Development

Then click Next, Apply, and Finish and restart the IDE to see the changes.

Everything.

Answer 3

You are probably missing the Java 7 JDK .

Download and install the JDK from the link above, then follow these instructions so that Eclipse knows where to find it.

After installing Java 7, the buttons and menus of the GWT plugin finally appeared the next time I started Eclipse.
