Eclipse Galileo Property Testers complete list

During extending Eclipse, you may encounter Property Testers, for example in Launch shortcuts extension point.

I wanted to have a list of all Property Testers already defined, in order not to reinvent the wheel. A small program was made to list all testers found in a specified Eclipse folder.

For reference, Galileo Property Testers are:

buildpathReference, contextlaunch, extendsClass, extendsInterface, hasMethod, hasMethodWithAnnotation, hasProjectNature, hasTypeWithAnnotation, isContainer, isPackageFragment, isPackageFragmentRoot, matchesContentType, projectNature, areBreakpointTypesAvailable, bundleState, canCreateWatchExpression, canLaunchAsJUnit, consoleTypeTest, contentGenerator, contentTypeId, done, editable, extension, fileMarker, getAvailableBreakpointType, getModelIdentifier, hasFilters, hasGroups, hasMain, hasTypeOnClasspath, inArchive, inExternalArchive, inSourceFolder, isActivityEnabled, isBundleInstalled, isCategoryEnabled, isInJavaProject, isInJavaProjectWithNature, isManaged, isMultiStrata, isOnClasspath, isPerspectiveOpen, isTerminatedOrDisconnected, isTest, languageName, launchable, matchesPattern, message, name, open, path, persistentProperty, priority, processTypeTest, product, projectNature, projectOption, projectPersistentProperty, projectSessionProperty, quickFix, readOnly, refactoringPropertiesEnabled, resourceType, reuseEditor, sessionProperty, severity, superType, and type.

You can also list the associated namespace, type, class, and jar or folder location using the snippet here.

Eclipse Galileo is out

Eclipse team releases at committed date, always! This year, Eclipse 3.5 version contains 33 projects.

As you would expect, it contains various enhancements and new features, I think below are the most important ones:

• PHP Package: another major language added to the constellations


• Memory Analyser: a java heap analyzer to easily find memory leaks


• Xtext: you define your own 'language', and a parser and IDE editor are created for you

Enjoy the best IDE here.
