Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Fedora Project Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by AndrewOverholt: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Devel/Tools/Eclipse The comment on the change is: move from Docs/Beats/Java New page: = Eclipse = This release of Fedora includes Fedora Eclipse which is based on the [http://www.eclipse.org Eclipse] SDK version 3.2. The "New and Noteworthy" page for this release can be accessed [http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.2-200606291905/new_noteworthy/eclipse-news.html here]. Released in June 2006, the SDK is known variously as "the Eclipse Platform," "the Eclipse IDE," and "Eclipse." The Eclipse SDK is the foundation for the combined release of ten Eclipse projects under the [http://www.eclipse.org/callisto Callisto] combined release umbrella. A few of these Callisto projects are included in Fedora: [http://www.eclipse.org/cdt CDT], for C/C++ development, and [http://www.eclipse.org/gef GEF], the Graphical Editing Framework. Many third-party Eclipse projects are also available, including [http://www.eclipse.org/emf EMF], the Eclipse Modeling Framework, [http://subclipse.tigris.org/ Subclipse] for integrating Subversion version control, and [http://www.phpeclipse.de/ PHPeclipse] for developing in PHP. We hope to augment these projects with others as this Fedora cycle goes on. Likely candidates for inclusion include [http://www.eclipse.org/vep VE], the Visual Editor, and an updated version of [http://pydev.sf.net PyDev], the Python development tools. Assistance in getting these projects packaged and tested with GCJ is always welcome. Contact the interested parties through [http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-java-list/ fedora-devel-java-list] and/or #fedora-java on freenode. Fedora also includes plugins and features that are particularly useful to FOSS hackers, ChangeLog editing with `eclipse-changelog` and Bugzilla interaction with `eclipse-bugzilla`. Our CDT package also includes work-in-progress support for the GNU Autotools. The latest information regarding these projects can be found at the [http://sourceware.org/eclipse/ Fedora Eclipse Project] page. This release includes 21 language packs for the Eclipse SDK. Each language is packed into separate packages, for example `eclipse-sdk-nls-ko` for Korean translation. == Non-packaged Plugins/Feature == Fedora Eclipse contains a patch to allow non-root users to make use of the Update Manager functionality for installing non-packaged plugins and features. Such plugins are installed in the user's home directory under the `.eclipse` directory. Please note, however, that these plugins do not have associated GCJ-compiled bits and may therefore run slower than expected. = Alternative Java Runtime Environments = The Fedora free JRE does not satisfy every user, so Fedora does allow the installation of alternative JREs. A caveat exists, however, for installing proprietary JREs on 64-bit machines. The 64-bit JNI libraries shipped by default on x86_64 systems in Fedora will not run on 32-bit proprietary JREs. In other words, do not try to run Fedora's x86_64 Eclipse packages on Sun's 32-bit JRE. They will fail in confusing ways. Either switch to a 64-bit proprietary JRE, or install the 32-bit version of the packages, if available. To install a 32-bit version, use the following command: {{{yum install <package_name>.i386 }}} Likewise, the 32-bit JNI libraries shipped by default on ppc64 systems will not run with a 64-bit JRE. To install the 64-bit version, use the following command: {{{yum install <package_name>.ppc64 }}} -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
