Eclipse IDE (for Java) tutorial on Windows XP (32 bit), “Hello World”:

1. The Eclipse IDE requires a Java runtime installed.

→ Most OSes have some version of the Java runtime installed already. Java 5 - or Java 1.5 - is currently recommended by the Eclipse developers, however Java 6 worked fine for me.

→ The latest java runtime can be found here: .

2. Download “Eclipse IDE for Java Developers”

→ downloads/moreinfo/java.php.

→ Unpack the file into a directory that does not contain spaces, such as “c:\eclipse”

3. Open “eclipse.exe” in the root directory of the eclipse folder you unpacked.

→ Eclipse will prompt for a workspace directory. The workspace is the place where you store your Java projects.
