| == What is Eclipse? == | | == Installation == |
| [http://www.eclipse.org Eclipse] is an awesome IDE with tooling for various languages. It has a GTK+ UI that is much more accesible to regular programmers from a Windows environment than the tools traditionally used by FOSS hackers. | | === Eclipse === |
| | [https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/ Eclipse Packages] offers their own installers and tarballs for different editions. |
|
| |
|
| It was originally a (very) large body of code that IBM open-sourced. There is now a large community of companies and developers using and extending Eclipse.
| | === Flathub === |
| | The Java IDE can also be installed as a Flatpak package from [https://flathub.org/apps/org.eclipse.Java Flathub]: |

|
| It has its own Open Source license (the Eclipse Public Library, or EPL).
| | <pre> |
| | flatpak install org.eclipse.Java |
| | </pre> |
|
| |
|
| It is shipped in Fedora (>= 4). Plug-ins are continuously being added to Fedora. We aim to take care of Eclipse plugin review requests quickly. Packaging guidelines for Eclipse plugins can be found here: [[Packaging/EclipsePlugins]].
| | You may also install it using Gnome Software or KDE Discover; look for ''Eclipse IDE for Java Developers''. |

| Fedora Eclipse is a community project encompassing everything Eclipse-related in Fedora. We ship the Eclipse SDK along with many plugins (see below). We are working on making plugin packaging easier (see [http://www.eclipse.org/linuxtools/projectPages/rpmstubby RPM Stubby].
| | === Read Only Eclipse.ini === |
| | You can reference a custom <code>eclipse.ini</code> with |
| | <pre>flatpak run org.eclipse.Java --launcher.ini /home/user/custom/eclipse.ini</pre> |
|
| |
|
| Would you like to help?
| | It is also possible to start Eclipse with command line parameters: |
| | <pre>flatpak run org.eclipse.Java -vmargs -Xmx4g -Dmy.sysprop=some_value</pre> |
