Installing PDT is relatively easy.
Contents
Install a JVM
- Regardless of your operating system, you will need to install some Java virtual machine.
- If using Windows, you may already have one installed, but upgrading won't hurt.
- If using Linux, read this -- GCJ will NOT work.
PDT All-In-One
The simplest way to install PDT is via an All-In-One bundle, if one exists for your platform (OS, WS, architecture).
- Install a JDK or JRE -- minimum required level is 5.0.
- Download an All-In-One bundle, then unpack it and start it up.
If there is no All-In-One for your platform, try one of the options below.
Eclipse 3.3 / Europa / PDT 1.0
- Install a JDK or JRE -- minimum required level is 5.0.
- Get Eclipse:
- If installing on Linux, you can look for a package from your distro maintainter/repositories, but this is not supported by eclipse.org. If you encounter problems with such a bundle, please contact your distro maintainer.
- Otherwise, download an Eclipse SDK or Runtime Binary or the Europa JEE Bundle, then unpack it and start it up.
- Start Update Manager.
Help > Software Updates > Find and Install... > (*) Search for new features > Next > [x] Europa Discovery Site > New Remote Site > add the new site: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/ > Finish |
- Expand the Europa Discovery site to resolve dependencies. Collapsed sites will not be searched.
- Select the PDT feature(s) you want to install.
- Click the Select Required button to resolve missing dependencies.
- Install. Restart. Enjoy.
Eclipse 3.2 / Callisto / PDT 0.7
- Install a JDK or JRE -- minimum required level is 1.4.2.
- Get Eclipse:
- If installing on Linux, you can look for a package from your distro maintainter/repositories, but this is not supported by eclipse.org. If you encounter problems with such a bundle, please contact your distro maintainer.
- Otherwise, download an Eclipse SDK or Runtime Binary, then unpack it and start it up.
- Start Update Manager.
Help > Software Updates > Find and Install... > (*) Search for new features > Next > New Remote Site > add the new site: http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/releases/ > New Remote Site > add the new site: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/ > Finish |
- Select the projects &/or components you want to install.
- Expand the Callisto Updates site to resolve dependencies. Collapsed sites will not be searched.
- Select the PDT feature(s) you want to install.
- Click the Select Required button to resolve missing dependencies.
- If it does not work, you will have to manually select dependencies.
- If that doesn't work, start over, but add more update sites. Can't find a given dependency? Try here or here.
- Install. Restart. Enjoy.
