Setup Eclipse Binary for Eclipse Official Website in Fedora 20

Following is a sample note to setup eclipse binary from Official Eclipse Website instead of using yum.

I chose to go down this path since yum is several revisions behind the official version.

# Install jdk development if not already, to prevent some strange behavior when compiling code
sudo yum -y install java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel.x86_64

# Download the eclipse from official site. (http://www.eclipse.org/)
wget http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/epp/downloads/release/kepler/SR1/eclipse-jee-kepler-SR1-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz eclipse.tar.gz

# Unpackage it
mkdir -p eclipse
cd eclipse
tar -xvf ../eclipse.tar.gz

# Create eclipse.desktop file
cat > ~/eclipse.desktop <<"EOF"
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Eclipse IDE
Exec=/opt/eclipse/eclipse
Icon=/opt/eclipse/icon.xpm
Type=Application
Categories=Development;
EOF

# Make it all permission
chmod a+wrx eclipse.desktop

cd ..

# Copy the binary to opt
sudo mv eclipse /opt/eclipse

# Make the desktop symbolic link
sudo ln /opt/eclipse/eclipse.desktop /usr/share/applications/eclipse.desktop

One should be able to see it in Search Menu

Thanks.

Jersey + Multipart + Maven

I thought I should write about a problem that takes a long time for me to solve in case I forget about it.

I looked through tutorials and other articles to learn about Jersey Multipart. However, I ran into issues with missing dependency by following these tutorials. I finally solved it by setting up my maven POM file in the following way:

<dependencies>
  <dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>3.8.1</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
        <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-server</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
   <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey.contribs</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-multipart</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-json</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
     <dependency>
      <groupId>org.jvnet.mimepull</groupId>
      <artifactId>mimepull</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>

In short, problems seem to come from version differences across jersey libraries as well as mimepull libraries. All libraries should be the same version. So even if other Jersey libraries  already had 1.14 version, it should be safer to use 1.9 version since it was the latest version for mimepull.

The missing dependency error messages were not too informative at this case.

Thanks to authors of original articles and  their comments who contribute to the solution.

Hope it helps others.

中文翻譯:

最近花了不少時間解決了一個問題, 想說先把解決方案寫下來以免忘記.

之前幾日在網路上尋找關於Jersey Multipart的教學. 在讀完許多教學後自己寫了一個簡單的範例.但是在Deploy時卻遇到missing dependency的問題. 最後終於在把Maven的POM檔做出以下修改後解決了問題:


<dependencies>
  <dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>3.8.1</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
        <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-server</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
   <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey.contribs</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-multipart</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
      <artifactId>jersey-json</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
     <dependency>
      <groupId>org.jvnet.mimepull</groupId>
      <artifactId>mimepull</artifactId>
      <version>1.9</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>


總結是Jersey libraries跟mimepull的版本必須要相同. 不然會出現Missing Dependency的問題. 所以即使Jersey libraries已有1.14版, 這裡必須使用1.9版, 因為mimepull只有到1.9版.

完全沒想到missing dependency會跟版本有相關性.

希望這篇文章可以幫到需要的朋友們.
