Impressions of Eclipse

For those of you who are not part of this class, Eclipse is a freeware that we will be using to create our Java projects (the programing language of this class). I started using this software last term (Winter 2012) during CIS210. I really appreciate how the software shows errors, has the quick fill options and can check compilation errors. The syntax highlighting and variable highlighting is really helpful in tracking what variables are where and how they are being used. One thing I have not been able to master yet, is how to run a program and compile it directly in Eclipse. I still use Terminal (on my Mac) to test my programs.

    Thanks Curtis, succinctly put. Are you getting errors when you try to run a project? The compile happens automatically when you try to run. I will have office hours starting next week, feel free to drop in.

    I was playing with it in the past few days and it ended up working well. Im not quite sure why it was not working last term, but I will definitely let you know if problems persist.
