ColdFusion Builder 3 Mac Eclipse Plugin

I have been trying numerous ways to install CFBuilder 3 Trial into Eclipse 4.2.2 on Mac (Yosemite) and just cannot get CFBuilder to load the CF Perspective. I have tried in various Eclipse versions, and in multiple orders including just installing CFBuilder Trial Edition without in a clean 4.2.2 Eclipse from clean CF install (plugin only, but tried also installing full CFBuilder app both before and after plugin installation, rebooting between each install) and new workspace.
My ultimate goal is to also install Flash Builder 4.7 into the same Eclipse app, but am starting with CFBuilder since Flash Builder installs successfully. Note that this question is ONLY for the ColdFusion Builder 3 installation alone without Flash Builder installed on the machine.
Bottom line: I just cannot get CFBuilder 3 to load into Eclipse 4.2.2 and show the CF Perspective even though it appears to be a successful plugin install; I am starting Eclipse either from both the plugin directory's shortcut and from the eclipse app itself - neither work.
Does anyone have a clue whether this can be done on a Mac?

Milan...
My apologies for taking so long to get back to this. I just did some testing tonight of your instructions as well as those by Kaif above.
Firstly, I installed ColdFusion 10 locally on my Mac. I added the local server to the CF Servers panel successfully. After restarting Eclipse, the localhost entry remained in the CF Server panel.
Secondly, I followed your instructions to make a new profile and make my font/coloring customizations in it. I restarted Eclipse and my font and color selections were maintained (through 3 restarts). I noted that my newly created profile was selected in Preferences after each restart.
I then added a remote CF 10 server to the CF Servers panel successfully (as noted by the panel telling me that the server was running and being able to launch the CF Admin from within Eclipse). At this point there were 2 entries in my CF Server panel--localhost and the one remote server that lives inside my VM. I restarted Eclipse and when it came back up, only the localhost server remained. I might add that the VM has ColdFusion 10 installed in "multi-instance" mode and that the remote server instance that I added to the CF Servers panel was one of 4 CF instances configured and running inside the VM.
All the while, my font and color customizations have remained the way I set them.
So, it appears as though we're down to just one bug relating to remote server registrations in the CF Servers panel.
I saw that another user was reporting something similar in this thread: ColdFusion Builder 3 RDS and Remove Server settings reset on each restart so apparently it's not just me.
Thanks to you and everyone else for all the ideas and troubleshooting help thus far. At least at this point I think I might be able to use this for day-to-day coding, even though I really want the remote server system to work correctly so I can use the step debugger feature again.

ColdFusion Builder Perspective in Eclipse

I have just downloaded the lastest version of Eclipse to try the ColdFusion builder as a plug-in in my trial copy. I want to see if working within this environment with the subversive plugin also (not installed yet) would be a productive solution for me.
However, I can't get the ColdFusion builder perspective. Eclipse can't tell it's there. I have been searching for a solution for three days and have yet to find anything close to an answer. I've even tried removing eclipse completely and uninstalling and reinstalling the ColdFusion builder plugin, all to no avail. It seems it should be easier to install this. I'm at a complete loss as to what to do to fix this.

since your eclipse files and workspace/s are all run on the
java runtime environment and all configurations are saved at the
file level (no registry edits etc.), it's not uncommon to have
different eclipse versions in different folders running different
sets of plugins, defaulting to different workspaces, etc.
That's the long way of me suggesting a new install in a
different folder and trying it from scratch. If it has the same
behavior, you might try a different version of java.

Extending Flex Builder - eclipse plugin

I'm trying to find out more about writing Eclipse Plugins
that extend Flex Builder.
I've taken a look at the 'Adobe Flex Builder 3 Extensibility'
section of the Flex Builder help files and didn't find them that
helpful.
For example, at the moment I'm trying to get my new Eclipse
command to call the adt binary file in the user's chosen default
Flex SDK. So some immediate questions arise:
1) Which Flex or Eclipse class contains the filesystem
reference to the user's default Flex sdk so that I can call 'adt'
with user entered parameters?
2) Are there any tutorials or resources on extending Flex
Builder with custom Eclipse plugins apart from the limited Adobe
documentation?

Jason,
Yes you still need to purchase - you can install the product
as a full install, or as an eclipse plug in. Trying the 30 day
trial for getting your feet wet is the only option currently. Take

Flash Buider 4.7 eclipse plugin

1. Is Flash Builder 4.7 Eclipse Plugin available?
If it's available where is the trial download page?

ColdFusion Builder Update 1 issue on Mac

If you are running ColdFusion Builder Plugin inside Flash Builder 4 on Mac, and you check for updates and install CFB Update 1, make sure you close FB4 before installing the update. If not, it will blow up your CFB plugin in FB4 and you'll have to reinstall CFB.
Instead of using the check for CFB updates inside FB4/Eclipse,I had to:
1) close FB4.
2) Run Adobe Updater outside FB4
3) Download CFBuilder Update 1 and install it.
4) Then re-open FB4 again

If you are running Panther, you already have that firmware update. No iMac PowerPC can run 10.2 or later without the most current firmware on their system.

Mac OS X 10.9 ColdFusion Builder 2

I would like to know if anyone has any issues installing or using ColdFusion Builder 2 since the recent release of the new version of Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

Hi,
Thanks so much for your post.
Well today I re-installed Flash Builder 4 & ColdFusion Builder(as I got the student licence). I fist installed Flash Builder 4, and then I installed ColdFusion Builder as a plugin into Flash Builder 4, and it works!
I am so happy. Maybe I should of tried the eclipse way again, but I heard many people on twitter saying this way worked for them with no issues, and it did for me too, I am so happy
thanks so much for your help,

Flash builder 4 plugin broke inside coldfusion builder

I installed flash builder 4 into coldfusion builder as a plugin but I can;t see anyway to run or debug flex applications in the flex perspective.

Hi,
Not sure if it will help with this particular problem, but if you haven't seen it already, there's some info here about how to work around a similar compatibility issues with FB4 and CFB sharing the same copy of eclipse:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2828427#2828427
I realize that the thread above is about installing CFB into Flash Builder, and that's the opposite from how you installed it. There are at least 4 different ways to install the two products:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/cfbuilder_flashbuilder4_workflow_02.html
I'm not clear on which combination works most reliably though (CFB into FB4, FB4 into CFB, or separate installs), but will ask around internally to see if we have some more explicit recommendations to offer.

Can I install Coldfusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder?

I already have a licensed copy of Flash Builder 4.x installed, trying to install ColdFusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder. When I installed CFB, I selected install as a eclipse plugin and entered the path to the FB directory. Now I can't figure out how to invoke/add the CFB plugin in FB..
Thanks in advance

You should have uninstalled rather than simply deleting CFB 2 plugins manually .
Please do the following to fix it now. (If you have used Uninstaller to uninstall that would have cleaned all these things ):
Take a backup and delete the file: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Uninstall/{b8c666c3-1efd-11b2-bf3c-e04be4b2b610}.db
And you will be able to install CFB as plugin to Eclipse now.
Thanks,

Flex Builder 3 Eclipse Plugin

Flex Builder 3 Eclipse Pluginのダウンロードができません。サポートが終了したのでしょか？

I'm not quite sure what has gone wrong here, but can you
please try launching with the "-clean" command line option? E.g.
from the command line:
eclipse -clean
or
flexbuilder -clean
Some background, in case it helps: Although I don't know why
this has happened, it appears that a DLL is missing. Almost all of
Flex Builder is written in Java, but there are a few bits of native
code. In your "plugins" directory (e.g. "C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\plugins", or ""C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\eclipse\plugins", something like
that) should be either a file or a directory called
com.adobe.flexbuilder.utils.osnative_3.0.*.jar (where "*" is a
six-digit number). Inside that jar file, among other things, should
be a file called os/win32/x86/JNIToNativeBridge.dll. Please note,
there are two plugins with similar names:
com.adobe.flexbuilder.utils.osnative, and
com.adobe.flexbuilder.utils.osnative.win. The one I am referring to
here is the one that does *not* have "win" in the name.
Eclipse caches lots of stuff; one thing it does is, if it
finds a DLL in a plugin, it sometimes copies that DLL to another
place, called the configuration directory. The "-clean" option
tells Eclipse to discard its cache.
Please let me know whether this resolves the problem.

ColdFusion Builder plugin console

I just don't understand what I am doing wrong here. I updated ColdFusion builder as a plugin installed in 3.5.1. I also have Flex 3 /subclipse and a few other plugins installed. When I restart my localhost or want to view orm sql logged to the console, nothing appears. After a restart I get this.
[localhost]:(12/18 at 09:54:11) Server is available. Getting server settings from Server
[localhost]:Error(12/18 at 09:54:12) Unable to fetch server mappings.
[localhost]:Error(12/18 at 09:54:12) Unable to get the log directory.
On my laptop (at home and work) I have Builder running as standalone and this works fine on both of them. What can I do to fix this? I really like logging info to the console.

Can you try to remove the server settings and put them in again. (This worked for me once, but it was in beta 2. Now running Beta 3 so I cannot imitate your scenario to validate it as a fellow user. )

Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin install

I am trying to install the Flex builder eclipse plugin and
when I choose the path to eclipse, the installer gives me a warning
the root folder must contain the subfolder configuration. My path
is /Developer/Applications/eclipse. there is a subfolder
configuration. I have permission to the folders. The gui installer
under the title "Please Choose an Existing Eclipse Folder" displays
"eclipse" in the folder "Applications" on the disk "Macintosh HD".
Is the installer looking at /Application, not
/Developer/Applications?

I installed the plugin on another eclipse and copied over the
adobe com folders and jars to the features, plugins, and
configuration folders of my eclipse install

How can you expect them to understand you if you use strange abbreviations? Programming is an exercise in precision. If you have a question here, you would do well to communicate it precisely.
At the site [How to Ask Smart Questions|http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#writewell] :
h1. Write in clear, grammatical, correctly-spelled language
We've found by experience that people who are careless and sloppy writers are usually also careless and sloppy at thinking and coding (often enough to bet on, anyway). Answering questions for careless and sloppy thinkers is not rewarding; we'd rather spend our time elsewhere.
So expressing your question clearly and well is important. If you can't be bothered to do that, we can't be bothered to pay attention. Spend the extra effort to polish your language. It doesn't have to be stiff or formal � in fact, hacker culture values informal, slangy and humorous language used with precision. But it has to be precise; there has to be some indication that you're thinking and paying attention.
Spell, punctuate, and capitalize correctly. Don't confuse �its� with �it's�, �loose� with �lose�, or �discrete� with �discreet�. Don't TYPE IN ALL CAPS; this is read as shouting and considered rude. (All-smalls is only slightly less annoying, as it's difficult to read. Alan Cox can get away with it, but you can't.)
More generally, if you write like a semi-literate boob you will very likely be ignored. So don't use instant-messaging shortcuts. Spelling "you" as "u" makes you look like a semi-literate boob to save two entire keystrokes. Worse: writing like a l33t script kiddie hax0r is the absolute kiss of death and guarantees you will receive nothing but stony silence (or, at best, a heaping helping of scorn and sarcasm) in return.
If you are asking questions in a forum that does not use your native language, you will get a limited amount of slack for spelling and grammar errors � but no extra slack at all for laziness (and yes, we can usually spot that difference). Also, unless you know what your respondent's languages are, write in English. Busy hackers tend to simply flush questions in languages they don't understand, and English is the working language of the Internet. By writing in English you minimize your chances that your question will be discarded unread.
the main issue here is my questionMy recommendation: learn to do Swing without a code-generator. You gain a much better understanding of the underpinnings of Swing, the layout managers, and you gain extremely good control of component placement.

Building EAR for WebLogic 8.1 with Eclipse plugin

I am developing an EJB app for deployment in WebLogic, JBoss and Sun ONE. I use plugins for JBoss and Sun ONE, with the help of XDoclet, and have no problem creating the required XML and JAR files. However, the WebLogic Workshop creates many files, like oztplsEOImpl.java, oztp1sHomeImpl.java, Hello_oztp1s_EOImplRTD.xml and many others, while the Eclipse plugin only creates the Home and Remote interface .java files, and the prerequisite .xml files (ejb-jar.xml, weblogic-ejb-jar.xml, and weblogic-cmp-rdbms-jar.xml).
Why is that? And how can I build/package the EAR file from within Eclipse, without using WebLogic tools? I am trying to maintain a single codebase, with multiple XDoclet tags to create the appropriate interfaces and XML files. So far, I could achieve this for JBoss and Sun ONE, but it seems to be impossible for WebLogic.
Thanks for any enlightenment.

It is quite easy to rewrite the plugin to work with 8.1
We have done so - please contact me if you want the plugin.

Is the Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin Free?

I posted this quesiton in Flex Builder 2 forum but I thought
maybe it's a bit more appropriate here. If not I apologize.
I'm a total beginner to Flex and Eclipse but I'm just curious
if the Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin is free or do I still need to
purchase the $499 license in order to use it? I'm trying to figure
out what I'm going to use to build my Flex apps and I'd like a nice
IDE like Dreamweaver or CFEclipse with the nice prompts and other
features but $499 is quite steep just to get my feet wet.

Jason,

Help : installer has detected one or more adobe coldfusion builder plugins

I uninstalled coldfusion builder from flash builder and then when re-install I get a message:
installer has detected one or more adobe coldfusion builder plugins ....etc
How do I fix this?

As a caution to save your time please follow the following release note:
82284 - If you install ColdFusion Builder as a plug-in to Flash Builder and decide to uninstall ColdFusion Builder, make sure ColdFusion perspective is not active in Flash Builder. Failing which, some features may not work after restarting Flash Builder or ColdFusion Builder's perspective will not come up if installed again.
I did the wrong thing here and I can't ever get coldfusion to reappear after unstalling into FB
