Eclipse Plugins - A quick survey
Dear Eclipse users,
I have gone through this list of plugins for Eclipse:
http://eclipse-plugins.2y.net/eclipse/ratings_overview.jsp?pager.offset=0&firstItem=1
and here are those that I found (that perhaps might be) useful:
QuickREx - RegExp editor - better than the EPiC plugin in my opinion, also contains samles.
http://www.bastian-bergerhoff.com/eclipse/features/web/QuickREx/toc.html
Implementors - Allows you to open implementors of interfaces, but not as good as the IntelliJ implementation (I'm sure Eclipse will be integrating this sooner or later).
http://eclipse-tools.sourceforge.net/implementors/
ResourceBundle Editor - Name says it all, only useful for multiple languages support.
http://resourcebundleeditor.com/
Log4E - Log inserter and more, could be useful if lazy (don't show this to My Arse).
http://log4e.jayefem.de/index.php/Main_Page
LogWatcher - View logs dynamically updated from inside Eclipse, there is a similar thing integrated in newer versions of IntelliJ, though this plugin is free of course.
http://graysky.sourceforge.net/
Otherwise there are a lot of cool things, especially if you are a GUIprogrammer (which I am not, so I haven't really tried much of those). There was also a Spring IDE for Eclipse.
Other plugins not on that list:
BugList - http://kered.org/project-eclipse_bugzilla_plugin/
Ant Explorer - http://www.yworks.com/en/products_antexplorer_about.htm
