Eclipse is an open-source (under the Eclipse Public License, or EPL) powerful IDE with tooling for various languages. It has a GTK+ user interface and is written in Java. As it is written in Java it is cross-platform and capable of running on Linux, MacOS and Windows. It is maintained and used by a large community of volunteers and companies.
Installation
Eclipse
Eclipse Packages offers their own installers and tarballs for different editions.
Flathub
The Java IDE can also be installed as a Flatpak package from Flathub:
flatpak install org.eclipse.Java
You may also install it using Gnome Software or KDE Discover; look for Eclipse IDE for Java Developers.
Troubleshooting
See Eclipse on Flathub for bug reports and pull requests on the Flatpak manifest.
Read Only Eclipse.ini
You can reference a custom eclipse.ini with
flatpak run org.eclipse.Java --launcher.ini /home/user/custom/eclipse.ini
It is also possible to start Eclipse with command line parameters:
flatpak run org.eclipse.Java -vmargs -Xmx4g -Dmy.sysprop=some_value
No Splashscreen Image
As the splash is stored as legacy BMP try
yum install gdk-pixbuf2-modules-extra
to fix it when using an Eclipse supplied installer.
