Installing Veloeclipse Velocity Editor in Eclipse

      Velocity has nowadays gained a lot of respect in web development and you will for sure find this language in most of the places. In such a scenario, if the language is not detected by Eclipse then that becomes a huge drawback and also difficult to work.

There are scads of plugins available but I used Veloeclipse and it is working good. So you can as well go ahead and try this velocity editor.

Steps to install Veloeclipse in your Eclipse:

Step 1:
I am hoping you have your Eclipse open. Go to Help --> Install New Software. A new window appears.

Step 2:
In the new window you will find an Add button. Click on it and you will get one more window. Here you will have two options. Fill them as shown.
Name: veloeclipse
Location: http://veloeclipse.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/update/



Step 3:
Once you click OK on the previous screen, you will get a new window which will have an option to select. Select the box and click Next.

Step 4:
The rest will be done by Eclipse. You just need to click Next for 2-3 times more and then the plugin will get installed. Finally Eclipse will ask for a restart. Please Restart your Eclipse at this point.

Step 5:
Once Eclipse restarts, right click on a velocity file and open with Velocity. This needs to be done for the first time. Thereafter whenever you open a velocity file it opens in the editor directly.

That's all. Now you can enjoy editing your velocity code right away. Happy Coding !!!

IIIT Bangalore interview

You would also like Preparing for Interview , Getting into IIITB ,  Preparing for Online Exam , and FAQ on MS in IIITB We reached the campus for the interview 5 minutes before the scheduled time. I attended a lot of interviews before this but the interview at IIITB seemed special. A little bit of tension and the joy to be in Bangalore balanced my psyche as my brother parked the car in the parking lot. He was my cousin’s friend who was there to accompany me as he himself was a student of IIITB . Nevertheless, both of us went to the help desk located at the main gate where I had to verify myself as me. Then we were handed over a paper which listed all the process that was going to be held and was directed to the main building. Impressive as we already knew what all we had to do without any problem. So we headed towards the main building. It looked great from outside with some perfect combination of colors and a large logo at the top. The campus was tidy enough which seemed ...

OCPJP/SCJP - A good way to learn JAVA

    P hew !! After lot of postponing, I finally went for the OCPJP Exam (formerly SCJP) and luckily I got through it. Yes I was quite lucky enough to pass the exam, though the percentage I scored is pretty low compared to most of the people out there. But still I am quite happy with what I have. Scads of tips to score well in the exam will be easily accessible on doing some search in Google, so I am not going for anything like that. This is mostly about how I went for it and finally came out with flying colors. I thought to write this blog just to give a boost to all those people who are planning to write the exam and also those who scored less and are in the notion that they ruined it completely. If you have passed the exam, then you are good. Oracle and previously Sun made it pretty sure that only if you know the basics of the language, you will pass the exam. But nowadays you can get hold of so many dumps which will fetch you more than 95% easily. The ques...
