Filled under:

Hallo, guys!
it's been long time I didn't update this blog and here I will share you how to install Eclipse using Ubuntu. This is my first experience in using Operating System except Windows. We all know well that to install application in windows is not a big issue, since the user can easily install it by hit 'next' or 'OK' button. Haha.

Let's download eclipse installer package in eclipse website. In this case, please use tar.gz eclipse installer file.

  1. go to the folder in which the tar.gz file is stored, in this case you have to go to Downloads folder cd Downloads
  2. lets unzip tar file using tar -zxvf [eclipse file name]
  3. Extract the file and copy to /opt folder sudo mv [extracted eclipse file] /opt
  4. Create desktop file and install it gedit eclipse.desktop
  5. Copy the following eclipse dekstop configuration file:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=Eclipse
