Eclipse is now part of DTS.

There is community effort to rebuild DTS in Copr and make it available
on softwarecollections.org:

    https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/rhscl/devtoolset-3-el7/

Currently packages in this Copr fail to build, but I can provide some
hints how DTS can be built.

First, you need to add four additional packages to buildroot. These
packages can be taken from Fedora. They are build-time dependencies of
DTS and are not needed during runtime. These packages are: decentxml,
tycho, tycho-extras and xml-maven-plugin.

Secondly, there was an important bug in javapackages-tools preventing
SCL from working correctly, so make sure you are using
javapackages-tools >= 3.4.1-6.el7_0 (from RHEL 7.0.z).
