The following page has been changed by AndrewOverholt: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Devel/Tools/Eclipse?action=diff&rev2=10&rev1=9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ==== Eclipse ==== - This release of Fedora includes Fedora Eclipse, based on the [http://www.eclipse.org Eclipse] SDK version 3.3.0. The "New and Noteworthy" page for the 3.3.x series of releases can be accessed at [http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.3-200706251500/whatsnew/eclipse-news.html].

Release notes specific to 3.3.0 are available at [http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/readme_eclipse_3.3.html]. The Eclipse SDK is known variously as "the Eclipse Platform," "the Eclipse IDE," and "Eclipse." The Eclipse SDK is the foundation for the combined release of twenty-one Eclipse projects under the Europa combined release umbrella ([http://www.eclipse.org/europa]). Some of these Europa projects are included in Fedora: + * CDT ([http://www.eclipse.org/cdt], for C/C++ development; - * EMF ([http://www.eclipse.org/emf]) the Eclipse Modeling Framework; - * GEF ([http://www.eclipse.org/gef]), the Graphical Editing Framework; + * GEF ([http://www.eclipse.org/gef]), the Graphical Editing Framework; and + * Mylyn ([http://eclipse.org/mylyn]), a task-focused UI for Eclipse, along with task connectors for Bugzilla and Trac. + + Other Eclipse projects included in Fedora include: + * Subclipse ([http://subclipse.tigris.org/]) for integrating Subversion version control; - * PyDev ([http://pydev.sf.net]) for developing in Python; + * PyDev ([http://pydev.sf.net]) for developing in Python; and - * PHPeclipse ([http://www.phpeclipse.de/]) for developing in PHP; and + * PHPeclipse ([http://www.phpeclipse.de/]) for developing in PHP. - * Mylyn ([http://eclipse.org/mylyn]), a task-focused UI for Eclipse, along with task connectors for Bugzilla and Trac. Assistance in getting more projects packaged and tested with GCJ is always welcome. Contact the interested parties through fedora-devel-java-list ([http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-java-list/]) and/or #fedora-java on freenode. - Fedora also includes plugins and features that are particularly useful to FLOSS hackers, ChangeLog editing with `eclipse-changelog`, and Bugzilla interaction with `eclipse-mylyn-bugzilla`. + Fedora also includes plugins and features that are particularly useful to FLOSS hackers, ChangeLog editing with `eclipse-changelog`, and Bugzilla interaction with `eclipse-mylyn-bugzilla`. Our CDT package -- `eclipse-cdt` -- includes a snapshot release of work to integrate with the GNU Autotools. The latest information regarding Fedora-driven Eclipse projects can be found at the Fedora Eclipse Project page: [http://sourceware.org/eclipse/]. ===== Non-packaged Plugins/Features ===== - 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. + Fedora Eclipse allows non-root users to make use of the Update Manager functionality for installing non-packaged plugins and features.

A caveat exists, however, for installing proprietary JREs on 64-bit machines. + The Fedora free JREs do not satisfy every user, so Fedora does allow the installation of alternative JREs.

In other words, do not try to run Fedora's x86_64 Eclipse packages on Sun's 32-bit JRE. They fail in confusing ways. Either switch to a 64-bit proprietary JRE, or install the 32-bit version of the packages, if available.
