Install eclipse ide on ubuntu 10.10




Eclipse IDE(Integrated Development Environment) is probably the open source and free IDE’s.For Java it’s best.. due to a lot of functionality,good navigation and GUI Design. Eclipse platform is perfectly modular so After installing Eclipse-Platform(developed by IBM) you can install any other components/toolkits to increase it’s functionality .e.g by adding JDT( Java Development Tools) packages  you can enjoy java programming with Eclipse,similarly CDT(C/C++ Development Tools) for C/C++ fun.There are lot of Eclipse versions are available for different programming language e.g for web development(As you see in the above screenshot) java script version of Eclipse is also available, For PHP developers, a dedicated PHP version is available and. ..so on. Some Developers says Eclipse is very complex and not recommended for beginners, sure there is little trade off between the functionality and complexity but overall it’s not so tough and free tutorials/whitepapers are available on internet, to increase the fun of programming in Eclipse.
