Is there an UML editor for Eclipse? An Eclipse Modelling project-based UML editor can be installed from the Eclipse update site "Modelling > UML2 Tools SDK". See Creating UML 2 diagrams with Eclipse UML2 Tools - Tutorial for an introduction.

How do I debug Eclipse? How can I see what plug-ins are being started? Why aren't the plug-ins I installed showing up in the UI? How do I start the OSGi console?

Debugging OSGi Bundle Loading Issues There are a few flags you can pass to Eclipse on the commandline or in your eclipse.ini file that might help: -consolelog - log everything in workspace/.metadata/.log to the console where you launched Eclipse as well -debug - more verbose console output -console - start the Equinox OSGi console to interact with OSGi directly -noexit - when Eclipse closes, keep the OSGi console running until you type 'exit' or hit CTRL-C so you can keep debugging See Where Is My Bundle? for an overview of how to use the OSGi console for diagnosing problems.

Debugging Eclipse Using Eclipse You can also debug an Eclipse instance from another instance through remote debugging: Start the instance to be debugged with "-vmargs -Xdebug -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000". You should see a message like "Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000" Open Run → Debug Configurations... and create a Remote Java Application configuration with connection type "Socket Attach" and connecting to the client at port 8000. Set the project to a bundle project with the right dependencies for the bundles that you are trying to debug. Launch the configuration. The JDWP agent supports other useful arguments, like "suspend=n" so that the process does not suspend. For more details, see Oracle's Java Debug Wire Protocol (JDWP) connection docs.

I just installed Eclipse on my 64-bit system, but it does not start. What is the problem? Make sure that you have downloaded the 64-bit version of Eclipse (it should have x86_64 somewhere in its name) and have installed a 64-bit JVM. Likewise, if you run a 32-bit JVM, then you should use the 32-bit version of Eclipse.

When I start Eclipse it says "Workspace in use or cannot be created, choose a different one.", what should I do? There are a couple of things you can try. Delete the workspace/.metadata/.lock file. Check your running processes to make sure there aren't any remaining Java or Eclipse processes running. When in doubt, restart your computer. :) Try starting Eclipse on a different workspace (from the workspace selection dialog, or by using a command line argument like -data /home/user/tmp-workspace), then switch back to your original workspace.

How do I uninstall a plug-in? You can view your list of installed software by checking your installation details from about dialog. Help > About > Installation Details

I'm having memory, heap, or permgen problems, what can I do? FAQ How do I increase the heap size available to Eclipse? FAQ How do I increase the permgen size available to Eclipse?

Eclipse seems to be hanging on startup. How can I find out why? If none of the solutions outlined in this section reveal the problem, then you can try debugging an Eclipse instance as a debug target from another Eclipse instance. This is surprisingly easy: Start Eclipse in a "new" blank workspace (e.g., C:\TEMP\WS, or /tmp) Create a new Debug configuration: Run -> Debug Configurations; then click on "Eclipse Applications" and select the New Launch Configuration. If you believe it's something about a particular workspace, then set the workspace to your normal workspace. If you believe the hang is caused by a particular plugin, disable the plugin and verify. Launch and then see. Using this approach, you can break with the debugger to see where hangs are occurring. You can also change the selection of plugins that the instance is launched with.

I was working on a project and doing something or other does not work. Where should I start? Try refreshing your projects. Try cleaning your your projects using the menu item Project/Clean to trigger a rebuild. Try closing/reopening your projects. Try restarting Eclipse.

4.2 Where are Eclipse's log files located?

Where are Eclipse's log files located? <workspace>/.metadata/.log You can view this workspace log as a view if you have PDE installed on your computer (which you would if you have downloaded the Eclipse SDK). You can open that view via Window -> Show View -> Other -> PDE Runtime -> Error Log. <eclipse install>/configuration/<sometimestamp>.log <eclipse install>/configuration/org.eclipse.update/install.log

Note that you will not be able to do this if your "Done" column sets an issue's status to "Closed", as issues are not editable once they are "Closed"

do not at all describe "who" is able to perform the action(s)

Multiple Parts

Wildcard Permissions support the concept of multiple levels or parts. For example, you could restructure the previous simple example by granting a user the permission printer:query

Multiple Values Each part can contain multiple values. So instead of granting the user both the "printer:print" and "printer:query" permissions, you could simply grant them one: printer:print,query

All Values What if you wanted to grant a user all values in a particular part? It would be more convenient to do this than to have to manually list every value. Again, based on the wildcard character, we can do this. If the printer domain had 3 possible actions (query, print, and manage), this: printer:query,print,manage

simply becomes this: printer:*

Using the wildcard in this way scales better than explicitly listing actions since, if you added a new action to the application later, you don't need to update the permissions that use the wildcard character in that part.

Finally, it is also possible to use the wildcard token in any part of a wildcard permission string. For example, if you wanted to grant a user the "view" action across all domains (not just printers), you could grant this: *:view Then any permission check for "foo:view" would return true

Instance-Level Access Control

instance-level Access Control Lists

Checking Permissions

SecurityUtils.getSubject().isPermitted("printer:print:lp7200")

printer:*:*

all actions on a single printer

printer:*:lp7200

missing parts imply that the user has access to all values corresponding to that part

printer:print is equivalent to printer:print:*

Missing Parts

rule of thumb is to

when performing permission checks

first part is the

that is being operated on (printer)

second part is the

(query) being performed

three parts - the first is the

third is the

can only leave off parts from the end of the string

Performance Considerations

runtime implication logic must execute for

implicitly using Shiro's default

which executes the necessary implication logic

When using permission strings like the ones shown above, you're

Shiro's default behavior for Realm

for every permission check

need to be checked individually for implication

as the number of permissions assigned to a user or their roles or groups increase, the time to perform the check will necessarily increase

If a Realm implementor has a

more efficient way of checking permissions and performing this implication logic

should implement that as part of their

user:update:12345
