== Installing Eclipse onto Fedora 14 - X86_64 ==
# Start with a clean install of Fedora 14, preferably from a live CD. For my examples I used the 64 bit edition.
# When the install is complete, open a terminal window and run '''yum update''' to bring your system up to date. You may have to reboot once this is done.
# Install Eclipse (Helios 3.6.1) with the command '''yum groupinstall "Fedora Eclipse"'''.
# That's it! You can now use Eclipse to build C, C++ or Java programs.

SWT (Standard Widget Toolkit) should now be installed. If you look in the directory /usr/lib64/eclipse you should see links to several SWT libraries. Here's what I get when I do a directory listing:
