I am trying to install the m2e plugin so that I can begin experimenting with Maven. I looked towards the m2e download page and was directed here but it is throwing a 404 error. Can anyone provide any more guidance on how to integrate this plugin with RAD 7.5?
As far as I can tell from here, RAD 7.5.5 is based on an old version of Eclipse. m2e is unlikely to work, but its predecessor m2eclipse might. Hopefully you will be able to find it as explained here.
However m2e evolved a lot in the last few years and I'd suggest that you switch to a more recent version of Eclipse, if you can. The latest versions actually have m2e directly integrated.

I use RAD 8.5 and I am trying to get maven plugin, however, when I go to Help -> Preferences I don't see a maven section. So I tried to go to IBM Installation Manager and it doesn't open. Do I have to install maven from Help -> install new software -> then http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases? Or is that unnecessary?
Starting RAD 8.5.1 there's built-in support for Maven

Make sure you have this version and if so, use Installation Manager to update your installation with this new feature. If you don't have RAD 8.5.1 you can use steps provided in this thread to install it from Eclipse Marketplace, although I can't really assure you it will work.

Hope this helps
i have to migrate some project from Eclipse to RAD 7.5.5
Now i'm trying to install a maven plugin like i had on Eclipse, but i can't find it, i tried
http://repository.sonatype.org/content/sites/forge-sites/m2e
http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e-e34/
http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases
those sites that i found on web when i go for:
Help>Software Updates>Aviable Software>Add sites
gives to me "no repository found"
So i need a working repository to install Maven.
I found that this maven/rad version is very aged, so it can be hard to find now.
Any .zip file will be fine also.
First of all, RAD 7.5.x is not supported anymore by IBM (EOS dated on September 30, 2014), so my first advice is to move up to a newer version and I have the feeling that RAD includes Maven support since 8.5.1. Latest version out there is 9.1.1.

Second, honestly I don't recall which version of Eclipse is used in RAD 7.5.x. If it is older than Eclipse 3.6 then I don't think there is any integration for it. Try this repo
http://download.eclipse.org/m2e-wtp/releases/juno/
Here is the M2E for WTP site in Eclipse Marketplace

I'm using Eclipse 3.7.1 Indigo (Java EE IDE) on Windows 7 (32bit). I wanted to install WindowBuilder for building GUI java apps and so far I tried following repositories to install WindowBuilder or SWT plugin, but none of them completes the plugin installation and it stucks and fails in between.
WindowBuilder Pro by Google
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/d2wbpro/latest/3.7
WindowBuilder by Eclipse http://download.eclipse.org/windowbuilder/WB/release/R201109201200/3.7/
I also tried by using fresh installation of Eclipse, but that also didn't worked, and plugin installation takes forever and in the end, it shows error "Unable to Resolve". I'm sure that my network connection is free from any firewall restrictions and is fairly fast.
I have used NetBeans so far for my Java needs, but now I need to move on Eclipse, what could be the possible solution to this problem?
Manually installing plugins would be my last option and I'd really prefer to install it using Eclipse's built-in "Install New Software".
Installing via this link just worked fine for me on a fresh install of Indigo.

The fact that you have the same issue from two different sites suggests it's a issue with your network, if you're still have issues try installing a completely different plugin and see if you get the same problem. Are you on a corporate network? Do you have any proxies you need to configure to allow aplications to access the net?
I cant seem to compare two JS files (one edited locally and the latest version from the repository when doing Team Synch or Compare With) using Subversion in IBM RAD 7. I have used Subclipse as a plugin version 1.6.8.
I have totally downgraded to Subclipse 1.6.5 because my team mate's IDE (also RAD 7) is working fine on this subclipse version when comparing JS files.
I have also looked up and seems we have both the same version of RAD 7.
Frantically looked for solutions on the net and found nothing.
Sorry if this is the place to look for support. I was attempting to upgrade my RAD but darn the fix packs are so huge even for a little fixes (other fixes I mean)(shoo IBM).
Does anyone have a workaround?
I cant find the workaround so I just patiently downloaded the updates from IBM sigh.
Updating to RAD 7.5.5 fixes the problem
