The Eclipse SDK includes the Eclipse Platform, Java development tools, and Plug-in Development Environment, including source and both user and programmer documentation. If you aren't sure which download you want... then you probably want this one.
Eclipse does not include a Java runtime environment (JRE). You will need a 1.4.1 level or higher Java runtime or Java development kit (JDK) installed on your machine in order to run Eclipse. Click here if you need help finding a Java runtime.

This drop contains the JUnit Eclipse test plugins and the Automated Testing Framework used to run the tests from the command line. Click here for more information and installation instructions. Includes both source code and binary.

To install the examples, first make sure you have exited your Eclipse program. Then download the zip file containing the examples and extract the contents of the zip file to the same directory you used for your SDK installation. For example, if you installed the Eclipse Project SDK on d:\eclipse-sdk then extract the contents of the examples zip file to d:\eclipse-sdk. Start Eclipse. The example plug-ins will be installed. For information on what the examples do and how to run them, look in the "Examples Guide" section of the "Platform Plug-in Developer Guide", by selecting Help Contents from the Help menu, and choosing "Platform Plug-in Developer Guide" book from the combo box.

These drops contain the Eclipse Rich Client Platform base plug-ins and do not contain source or programmer documentation. These downloads are meant to be used as target platforms when developing RCP applications, and are not executable, stand-alone applications.

These drops contain the Eclipse Rich Client Platform base plug-ins and their source.

These drops contain only the Eclipse Platform with user documentation and no source and no programmer documentation. The Java development tools and Plug-in Development Environment are NOT included. You can use these drops to help you package your tool plug-ins for redistribution when you don't want to ship the entire SDK.

These drops contain the Eclipse Platform Runtime binary with associated source and programmer documentation.

These drops contain the Java development tools plug-ins only, with user documentation and no source and no programmer documentation. The Eclipse platform and Plug-in development environment are NOT included. You can combine this with the Platform Runtime Binary if your tools rely on the JDT being present.

These drops contain the JDT Runtime binary with associated source and programmer documentation.

These drops contain the Plug-in Development Enviroment plug-ins only, with user documentation. The Eclipse platform and Java development tools are NOT included. You can combine this with the Platform and JDT Runtime Binary or SDK if your tools rely on the PDE being present.

These drops contain the FTP and WebDAV target management support plug-ins. You can combine this with the Platform Runtime Binary or Eclipse SDK. Includes both source code and binary.

These drops contain the SWT libraries and source for standalone SWT application development. For examples of standalone SWT applications refer to the snippets section of the SWT Component page.

To run a standalone SWT application, add the swt jar(s) to the classpath and add the directory/folder for the SWT JNI library to the java.library.path. For example, if you extract the download below to C:\SWT you would launch the HelloWorld application with the following command:

 java -classpath C:\SWT\swt.jar;C:\MyApp\helloworld.jar -Djava.library.path=C:\SWT 
HelloWorld 

This plug-in provides features that will help with the Eclipse development process. Installing the plug-in will add the following actions. To install simply unzip the file into your plugins directory and restart Eclipse. Please use the Release feature of this plug-in to do your build submissions.

1. Release to the Team menu. This action will Tag selected projects with the specified version and update the appropriate loaded *.map files with the version. The user must have the *.map files loaded in their workspace and the use must commit the map file changes to the repository when done.
2. Load Map Projects to the Team menu. Select one or more *.map file and this action will load the projects listed in the *.map file into your workspace. Naturally the versions specified in the *.map file will be loaded.
3. Tag Map Projects to the Team menu. Select one or more *Map files and this action will tag the projects listed in the *Map files with a tag you specify.
4. Compare with Released to the Compare menu. Compare the selected projects with the versions referenced in the currently loaded map files.
5. Replace with Released to the Replace menu. Replace the selected projects with the versions referenced in the currently loaded map files.
6. Fix Copyright to the Resource Perspective Projects context menu. Select one or more projects in the Resource Perspective. This action will sanity check the copyright notices in all the *.java and *.properties files. Copyrights will be updated automatically where the tool deems appropriate. A copyright.log file will be written to the workspace directory noting odd conflicts that need to be looked at. You need to commit the changes yourself. This is the tool that was used to do the 2.1 Copyright pass.
