eclipse

[Angelo Moreschini]

Hi,

I downloaded Elipse (Gallileo) from the official repository of Fedora
with the purpose to develop Java programs,but it doesn't look to be suitable
to be used for developing Java programs..(it is not sensitive to the
skill used in Java programming, i.e there is not option to create java
classes, as also the option of compilation.., etc..).

Also I don't find JDK (Java Development Kit) inside the IDE, neither in the
menu
Window ---> Preferences I find a possibility to add the Java capability, as
it is wrote on the manuals of Eclipse....

I don't understand, I used Eclipse on Windows OS.. and there I
had not problem to develop Java Programs...

I am confused... what it is ?

What can I do to use Java in Eclipse in Fedora environment.

Regards
thank you

Angelo

Which version of Fedora? Currently supported Fedora releases should have
Eclipse Kepler (4.3) or Luna (4.4).

Did you install the eclipse-jdt (Java Development Tools) package?
Eclipse is a general purpose IDE, you need to install the components you
need for the programming languages you want to use.

Is a JDK actually installed?

To develop Java applications you need to install a Java JDK separately, 
irrespective of whether you are using Eclipse from the Fedora 
repositories or from Eclipse.org, and then configure Eclipse so that it 
knows where you have installed the jdk. This is required because you may 
have multiple versions of the jdk installed and you can develop Java 
applications for different versions of Java, so Eclipse needs to know on 
a project by project basis which version of Java you are developing for. 
You also need to decide whether you are going to use the open source 
version of the Jdk from the Fedora repositories or go to Oracle and 
download the Jdk which is more widely supported on web sites than the 
Open JDK.

Hey Angelo,

Eclipse has many plugins and modules for many different programming
dialects.  You just have to find the appropriate ones for the
programming language that you are trying to use.  It might take a bit of
Googling to find out what you need to install.

I use it for C, C++, Perl, and shell script.  I had to install various
extensions and assorted stuff, especially for Perl, to get it working
the way I wanted.

Hang in there and don't despair.  It might not work out of the box but
it will work eventually.

Try NetBeans, it's much better... and made by Oracle:

https://netbeans.org/community/releases/80/

Hi Markku,

Version: 4.3.2-Build id: 3fc20.
When I load it, come up the name "Gallileo".
No problem with JDK (all is ok).

But you gave me a good information: now I saw that in the site they are
many different kind of Eclipse; I didn't pay much attention before, and so
perhaps I didn't choice the right one...

And also I know, now, that I need to install also the plug-in for java.

Thank you very much

Angelo

Hi Glenn ,

You are right, I know very well NetBeans, that I used it for many years...
But since I changed the OS to Fedora the well know "scanning project
problem", don't allow me to work anymore ...
I am not able to fix the problem of "scanning projects" of NetBeans in the
environment of Fedora...

I am sorry...
