Resources

  • Eclipse IRC FAQ [3]
    • 2.22 I just installed Eclipse on Linux, but it does not start. What is the problem?
  • Download and installation instructions on the Eclipse Linux Tools wiki [4]

Guidelines

  • Get a user account on a Fedora machine at CDOT. You could install Fedora 12 on your own desktop or laptop.
  • Install OpenJDK on the Fedora machine.
    • You need a little bit of Linux to set the environment variables properly.
  • Install Eclipse on Fedora.
  • Visit the Download page on www.eclipse.org/linuxtools. Read the Download and installation instructions on the Eclipse Linux Tools wiki.
  • Install the* Eclipse Linux Tools project on the Fedora machine.
    • You will encounter problems if you have not installed OpenJDK on the Fedora machine.
    • Advice: It's unlikely that you will get it right for the first time. Keep trying and you will make it in the end!
  • Test your installation.
