Hey folks, I have been using the Zend editor for a couple years, and am
trying to move to Eclipse. I have spent many hours trying to get PDT to
work and am aving no luck. There is no PHP perpective, cannot create new
PHP projects etc.. When I look at the Software Upadates->Manage
Configuration I see the PDT installed, but it simply does not work.

I have installed the PDT M1 All-in-one release and still no go. I have
tried this on Window and Mac.

I think I must be missing something simple here.

Any thoughts?

Are you using Java 5.0 ? M1 won't work with anything less.

Here's what I've done:

Installed JRE6 (1.6.x)

Download Eclipse Classic 3.3 and install it
Manage the configuration of Eclipse and install the WST and all required packages off of that
( Help > Software Updates > Find and Install... > Search for new features to install > Europa Discovery Site > WST )

Install and restart Eclipse
Quit Eclipse
Download the latest nightly of PDT from http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/
install the files into Eclipse:
move to the folder above your eclipse folder
unzip ~/org.eclipse.php_feature-incubation-N20070702.zip

Start Eclipse

I don't get it on Linux Fedora Core 5,
Using Eclipse 3.3 and WST,
I tried JDK 1.6.0_01 ; JRE 1.5.0_12 ; JDK 1.6.0_02
With org.eclipse.php_feature-incubation-N20070703
(And 1M1 with JDK 1.6.0_01)

I have no outline, no formatter (it send all to the left, leaving no
spaces nor tabs), no folding.
(I tried diferents set of preferences)

Did I miss something ?

Thanks

is this because pdt depends on jem which is not part of Europa (together
with the visual editor)?

I alse tried the all ni one PDT with 1.5 and 1.6 JRE with the same result.

Maybe the JEM prerquisite should be revisited

About VE, see

It is working finally.
The problem was that I opened an old project and it wasn't fully recognize
as PHP, even if the icons showed the PHP nature of the files !

I had to do 2 things :
- Change the .project (simply delete it and reimport the project) or
create a new workspace.
- for each file delete the "<?php" header and retype it : the oultine show
up !
refreshing the project or the file didn't do anything !

Notice that moving a file from a directory to another looses its "PHP
nature" : it still has the icons, but no outlines : you will have to
again, retype the "<?php" !

I think that I will fill a bug ...

By the way I am using

but the dependence on jem comes out when you try to install PDT from the
update site...
