I'm missing the Compare With -> Clipboard option, present in Eclipse 3.2 and superior.
This feature is essential to compare blocks of code.
Why is it not present in Aptana Studio 3?
Will it be added or can I add with some configuration or plugin?
This feature can be added to plugin with AnyEdit tools plugin for Eclipse.

The QtCreator resource editor has had a major change since the version 3.1. The new version shows resource files in project tree which i think is a good idea because most operations can now be done without opening the editor.
But it seems that something is missing here. The previous versions had an "Alias" field in the properties section for a resource file. I can not find such a thing in QtCreator 3.1.
Is this feature gone in the new versions and why?
Right click the .qrc file and select Open in Editor
When I open my resource file in the editor in version 3.1.0, the alias is still there: -
I just download eclipse kelper and found out the m2e and m2e-wtp plugins had been installed,and the new m2e plugins has no "package" of the lifecycle,how do i uninstall it?
=================================================
http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e
this is the update site i used in eclipse juno(now it seems 404 error).
Click Help-> About Eclipse -> Installation Details -> Installed Software
Find out your software
Click uninstall
Download fresh copy of Eclipse Kepler.
If you want m2e, use this link http://eclipse.org/m2e/download/
many other m2e plugins are old and stopped development.
Actually if you wish to get rid of m2e, you need to remove all packages and directories containing m2e string in eclipse installation's plugin folder. Removing them from workspace doesn't do much good (they are recreated if needed).
I tried this out in Luna and all m2e integrations (plugins and features) were removed...
Now if you still wish to use maven (but not m2e plugin), you just need to create external tool entries for each maven operation you wish to use.
You cant download the java EE version , you have to download Eclipse Standard, and use the update site to select java EE plugins you want, in that case you do not select m2e integration
Remove folders:
.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.m2e.core\
.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration\
From this
Aptana is a very heavy program.
I do not need Ruby/Python, how can I remove these plugins/addons to make it lighter for what I do?
Also how would I delete 'bundles' under the commands submenu?
It's not really possible to remove those items in the built application at the moment. There is some discussion about providing a very simple installer with one-click installs of extra languages, but we don't yet have an ETA on that. You can follow this ticket https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/APSTUD-4583 for more information.
Maybe you could do it in reverse. If Aptana is built on Eclipse, maybe there's a way to install Eclipse and then selectively install plugins to make it effectively equivalent to Aptana.
I need to define a model for newly created projects in Aptana.
Basically, I want, anytime, when I create a new project, it adds some defined directories/files (not existing files, but new ones) to this project.
I'm not even sure it's possible.
Aptana doesn't appear to support that.
Maybe you can just create a small external sript to do it for you? Not the ideal solution, but better then none.
This might be a longshot, but it is worth mentioning. Since Aptana is based on Eclipse, you might be able to see how Eclipse would handle custom project templates. It appears that the easiest way to go about this is to actually create an Eclipse plugin that has a Template Wizard. IBM has a nice guide on how to use PDE to create a Custom Template. I am not sure if you will be able use PDE from within Aptana (you might be able to), otherwise, you might need to download a stock version of Eclipse, create the Plugin, then install it in Aptana.
Aptana is based on eclipse, so you could use a combination of Maven Archetypes and the Maven eclipse plugin to achieve this really easily.
Download and install maven
Create a basic maven project using the quickstart archetype, Archetypes are project templates used to rubber stamp new project structures. The quickstart is a very basic project template
mvn archetype:generate
generate the eclipse project files using the eclipse plugin. This will create the standard
mvn eclipse:eclipse
tweak the pom until and re-run step 3 until you're satisfied with the layout etc. You'll no doubt have to add configuration the eclipse plugin to add the correct build spec and project nature. If you open an existing .project file it will contain the values you need. you can see here how to add them.
once the project is set up to your liking you can create your own archetype out of it and use this to rubber stamp new projects in the future.
mvn:archetype:create-from-project
now you can run the generate again and can select your archetype from the list. If its not there, you may need to run this first to update the list of archetypes
mvn archetype:crawl
Open Source your archetype for others to use ;)
It's very simple in Studio 3. Try the following: http://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/tis/Creating+a+new+template#Creatinganewtemplate-Creatinganewprojecttemplate
Basically you create a .zip file of the project content, and then write a few lines of Ruby code to reference it.
Aptana uses (as I'm sure you know) its own 'new rails' project that gives you a variety of options.
I don't think it's beyond Will (the RadRails maintainer) to add a simple text field to that Wizard that would allow you to enter a command-line option parameter. He's always been very responsive with my previous bug and feature requests.
If you want to give that a try, and that works, then I would HIGHLY and STRONGLY recommend that you look into one of the new Rails features 'templates' in which you could make a generic template, then call it through the new input box. We use templates at my current job and they save us about 4 hours of work on each project. They are very easy to use...def...definitely.
If you can't wait for the input box, then you could always write the template then call it from within the command line (see
http://m.onkey.org/2008/12/4/rails-templates
for info about templates)
Unless RadRails three is light-years ahead of the latest release, though, you'll be missing out on a lot of very handy advantages of using a more community-supported solution such as VIM or TextMate. (I switched to VIM from RadRails about 4 months ago and have never looked back).
Eclipse has a Plugin Development Environment. If I'm not mistaken, you can also create project templates with it. Please try: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-eclipse-pde/
Why do I get the error in intellij:
Cannot determine version for JDK flex_sdk_3. Update JDK configuration.
This problem arises if you have a java classes in your source tree. Remove them and the error should disappear.
When loading a project in IntelliJ IDEA, part of the project file is the name of the JDK that the project uses. If you don't have that JDK installed with that name, then IDEA will complain. We found a need to standardize on JDK names in our group.
To add or edit JDKs (at least in IDEA 7.0.4, which I'm using), go into File/Settings/Project Settings. There's a "JDKs" under Platform Settings there you can add JDK versions, and the "General" under Project Settings lets you pick which JDK to use for your project.
I just ran into the same issue.
In my idea workspace, I've got 2 kinds of projects: flex project and java projects.
By default all the project use the "General project settings" editable through File>Project Structure menu.
Change the default project sdk to whatever fits you the most and then apply specific settings for the others.
In my case as I wanted to run JBoss from intellij I chose the default to be java sdk.
