e(fx)clipse not installing on Kepler for some reason. [message #1424356]

I have been trying for about 5 hours now to install e(fx)clipse on Eclipse Kepler. Everything works fine, until I click "next" and it starts to install the software. Then, I get this error message, and it says that almost everything cannot be installed:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: e(fx)clipse - IDE - Basic 1.0.0.201408150702 (org.eclipse.fx.ide.basic.feature.feature.group 1.0.0.201408150702)
  Missing requirement: OSGi integration for JavaFX 1.0.0.201408150502 (org.eclipse.fx.osgi 1.0.0.201408150502) requires 'bundle org.eclipse.osgi 3.10.0' but it could not be found
  Cannot satisfy dependency:
    From: e(fx)clipse - IDE - Basic 1.0.0.201408150702 (org.eclipse.fx.ide.basic.feature.feature.group 1.0.0.201408150702)
    To: org.eclipse.fx.osgi [1.0.0.201408150502]

To download e(fx)clipse, I used the following link: http://download.eclipse.org/efxclipse/updates-released/1.0.0/site

I know I am probably just being an idiot, but I cannot seem to find any instructions or anything that actually gets me able to import the javafx libraries.

Thanks!

1.0.0 can not be installed into kepler - we only support Luna. The
reason for that is that Equinox changed its API between Kepler and Luna.

The only version that will work on Kepler is 0.9.0.

Er, I just want the JavaFX imports to work. Does 0.9.0 do that? And if not, where can I download Luna?

Thanks for the help!

Yes 0.9.0 fixes that as well but I would advise to use Luna. For easy
start just download it from http://efxclipse.bestsolution.at/install.html

I cannot install Luna due to some crap about "Cant find JNI library".

Where can I get 0.9.0 of e(fx)clipse?

Oh also, I tried those all in one solutions, and they have the same crap about JNI librarys Sad

Just managed to install it on Kepler, but the JavaFX imports are still not working.

Ok - so you are on Java7. How did you create your project? On Java7 you
need to use the JavaFX Project Wizard because you are in need of an
extra classpath container.

BTW: e(fx)clipse 1.0 requires Luna so it would not have worked for you
anyways
BTW2: JDK1.7.0_11 looks really old you should try upgrading to a newer
version if you do JavaFX-dev
BTW3: I strongly recommend to develop JavaFX apps with JDK8, JavaFX8 is
much more mature than JavaFX2.2 and you only get bugfixes for JavaFX8,
JavaFX2.2 only gets security fixes

I am getting somewhat confused here.

I installed with Kepler on version 0.9.0 which you said would work? Even though it isn't.

Also, what about my players who use 1.6 java? Would my JavaFX applications still work for them? And what about 1.7?

I am not really getting all this complicated crap. I just want to use the JavaFX imports in Eclipse. Which I currently cant.

I only mentionned that you would have never been able to run e(fx)clipse
1.0 because the tooling uses Java8 features.

The general answer to this question is that you are shipping the JRE
with your application, this is what the javafx-packager is doing for you.

JavaFX8 will only run on Java8.

If you want to stick with JavaFX2.2 (but note to yourself that I warned
you from using it for real world dev) so be it, e(fx)clipse 1.0 and
e(fx)clipse 0.9.0 happily support it (but e(fx)clipse 1.0 *as a tool*
needs to be running on JDK8) but once more I repeat - e(fx)clipse 0.9.0
is enough.

Create a project using our wizard and JavaFX imports will happily show up.
