I uninstalled 1.6 and then installed 1.7. Then when I started Eclipse 
Mac OS X says I need to install Java.



I don't if this might have helped, but you can specify to Eclipse which
JVM to use:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini
This means you don't have to use the default JVM but another installed one.


I tried that, doesn't work. It just adds it's own -vm flag, overriding 
mine.

Hum, have you tried adding the -vm flag to a shortcut to the Eclipse 
executable (instead of modying the .ini file)?
All flags specified in the command to the eclipse executable are 
supposed to override the .ini file ones.

You can override the CSS of the default themes by placing a new CSS file

If you add the update site for the new Eclipse release (for example

all Eclipse projects that are part of the Kepler release, basically
nearly all projects that hosted at Eclipse.org)


Having backed everything up (which means creating about 6 replicas for
me), I took the plunge and s/4.2/4.3/  s/juno/kepler/ for all my
update sites and updated. It appears to have done the needful. Thanks
for this, it has saved many hours of swearing.



Cool. It would have been amateurish of Eclipse to not have this 
funcionality, in one way or another.



It's a bit annoying that this isn't done automatically in some way, yes.
And also annoying that the update site for new releases is not easily
found on the Eclipse website either.


Bit annoying amounts to a mega-understatement :-)



Hum, I guess the annoyance is proportional to the amount of extra

 The single biggest problem with Eclipse is the annual upgrade marathon.
Since nothing carries over from one installation to another you have to

  The single biggest problem with Eclipse is the annual upgrade marathon.
Since nothing carries over from one installation to another you have to
go through the whole rigmarole to install all the extras, every year. I
wonder whether to stay with Juno and ignore Kepler.


If you add the update site for the new Eclipse release (for example 
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler for Kepler) to your current 
installation, and run the Check for Updates it should update Eclipse 
and retain all the extra plugins you have installed. (it should update 
all Eclipse projects that are part of the Kepler release, basically 
nearly all projects that hosted at Eclipse.org)


It's a bit annoying that this isn't done automatically in some way, yes. 
And also annoying that the update site for new releases is not easily 
found on the Eclipse website either.

Note that Juno and Kepler versions of Eclipse are not supported if they
contain DLTK. If you wanna use Juno/Kepler, download a package without
DLTK. Supported for the latest versions of DLTK will be added in the
future.



Seems like the raw HTTP file view of Git repositories in Google Code 
hosting is down at the moment. This mean the update site is not accessible:

http://updates.ddt.googlecode.com/git/
- fails with a 404 error

If you wanna use the update site in the meanwhile, you can get it as a 
zip from: 
http://updates.ddt.googlecode.com/archive/aa309c6726c8e8d7635100a34abbad51542ebc9a.zip



I've opened an issue with Google Code, as I've seen this happen several 
times, a bit more often than it should IMO:

Having backed everything up (which means creating about 6 replicas for
me), I took the plunge and s/4.2/4.3/  s/juno/kepler/ for all my
update sites and updated. It appears to have done the needful. Thanks
for this, it has saved many hours of swearing.

Bit annoying amounts to a mega-understatement :-)

Now I just have to remove all the jars that are no longer needed. Why
doesn't Eclipse garbage collect it's local cache?

Cool! I noticed that no screenshot linked from
https://code.google.com/p/ddt/wiki/Features loads.

Andrei



I've updated the Features wiki with new screenshots, and revised the 
text to be more clear:

http://code.google.com/p/ddt/wiki/Features
(like removing the A JDT-like project model references which actually 
doesn't mean anything to people who are not familiar with JDT)


Found a bug in the meanwhile, the DDoc viewer is not rendering $(D) DDoc 
macros.

Cool! It doesn't work with nodeclipse so it must be uninstalled (this
may be done after installing DDT). Then it seems to be working, but user
should setup DMD paths manually if he's on Linux like me (I'm on Ubuntu
12.10). Paths for DMD should be set up to /usr/bin/dmd for executable
and /usr/include/dmd/druntime/import,
/usr/include/dmd/phobos for libraries.


What do you mean manually? If you add a compiler installation by
pointing to the DMD compiler executable at /usr/bin/dmd then the library
paths should be filled automatically.


I've pointed path to the DMD compiler executable but the library paths 
weren't filled automatically. Maybe it's a bug? (eclipse CDT Kepler)



You still have to manually add the compiler installation by pointing to
the DMD compiler executable, yes. I guess that step could be automated
too, in Linux.
