In eclipse, is there a way, to reveal the currently selected file in the filesystem. I currently need it to open in explorer, but it could also be in finder or nautilus.
Basically, I do not need the "Open with System Editor" option. I would like a right-click menu with the option: "Show file in explorer/finder/nautilus".
Thanks
Note: You can also develop your own external tool to open the file in a Windows explorer
Or you can use an eclipse plugin like StartExplorer.
Notes on MacOS:
On Mac OS X, replace the location with
/usr/bin/openand the arguments should be just${container_loc}.
Doesn't work - OSX, you need to put quotes around the
${container_loc}otherwise you'll often get bizarre error messages because it can't cope with spaces in file names.
But user2036022 details:
you can use -R "${resource_loc}" on macosx as argument to
/usr/bin/opento be consistent with other similar tools.
/e, before /select to open with folders panel –
Phagocyte ExploreFS is a cross platform plugin and works fine on Ubuntu and Mac OSX.
http://www.junginger.biz/eclipse/,Now you can click on your project, package or file and select Explore in File System and it will open the location in your default file manager.
I've been recently using Eclipse Luna version, and it has that feature natively implemented, very nice!
In "Project Explorer" view, right click on the file you're interested in --> "Show In" --> "System Explorer"
Open the Properties of the file (Right Click->Properties) and the dialog will give you the full filesystem path.
Have a look at the PluginBox: http://pluginbox.sourceforge.net/plugins.html. This works with Linux as well. You can configure it precisely or choose a schema for Gnome, KDE, ...
Try the EasyShell extension: http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/easyshell
Why don't you right click on your file and select "show in> system explorer" then you will find life is beautiful.
BTW, my eclipse version :Luna Service Release 1 (4.4.1)[for mac]
Adding Show in Nautilus using External Tools is pretty easy too, very similar to the process for Windows in VonC's answer. Simply create the following shell script, chmod +x it and add it to the PATH. Then use it in Eclipse's External Tools Configuration window, as shown in the screenshot below.
~/bin$ cat run-nautilus.sh
#!/bin/bash
nautilus `dirname $1`
Explorer command line arguments
Directly we can not put shortcut to this feature, but setting shortcut to Last launched external Tool, we can put as follows:
I cannot seem to comment, so I will post as an answer instead On OSX the answer @zvikico is very close, I would change it to:
Location: /usr/bin/open
Arguments: -R ${container_loc}
The -R argument is a reveal in finder argument, as opposed to actually trying to open the file.
Then you just Run As Shell as mentioned in the other external tool answers
Use the EasyShell plugin. I love it--it's really great for this!
Install it, then right-click on the project in the Project Explorer and go to Easy Shell --> "Open with Default Application", "Copy full path to clipboard", or "Copy qualified name to clipboard":
Choosing "Copy Full Path..." might copy this path:
/home/gabriel/Downloads/Install_Files/Arduino/arduino-1.8.12/libraries/Mouse/src/Mouse.cpp
while "Copy Qualified Name" might copy this, which starts with the Eclipse project name as the root of the path:
/arduino-1.8.12/libraries/Mouse/src/Mouse.cpp
Choosing "Open with default Application" will open the file or folder in your default file manager, such as Windows Explorer in Windows, or Nautilus or Nemo in Linux.
nemo over Ubuntu's default nautilus file manager?" to see screenshots and why I love nemo so much more. I actually ended up moving from Windows to Linux finally on all my machines, even for my kids, in part because of the beauty and utility and time-saving and ease-of-use offered by the nemo file manager. Furthermore, MacOS's horrific and cumbersome file manager is one of the reason's I can't switch to Mac.© 2022 - 2024 — McMap. All rights reserved.
