Eclipse and openJDK

[xyz]

Hello,
I only can find eclipse-ecj-3.7.1 which is probably not the eclipse IDE.

How can I install eclipse IDE and openJDK?

Thank you in advance.

eclipse-sdk

Too bad that it is no the latest one.

Any plans to include/replace oracle java with openJDK?

You can use the eclipse you normally download from its homepage, since it doesn't require any installation

Sabayon does use openJDK rather than Sun/Oracle JDK, but you can still use the proprietary java implementation if you want.

Thank you.

I installed oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.3 but got the following error:
$ java
* Home for VM 'sun-jdk-1.6' does not exist: /usr/lib/jvm/sun-jdk-1.6
* Invalid System VM: sun-jdk-1.6

I can not find the update-alternatives –config java described here http://www.linuxnix.com/2010/12/how-to- ... linux.html

What did I do wrong.

SL Does not use the update-alternatives. Instead we use eselect from Gentoo. To update your Java virtual machine, as root you need to run:

Code: Select all

# eselect java-vm list

Determine the correct option for the JavaVM you want to use, and then use:

Code: Select all

# eselect java-vm set <number>

If you want to change the java-vm plugin that is used by your browsers, you will also need to do the same with java-nsplugin.

Thank you it is working. However, why I got before I had not java installed the following massage:

$ java
* Home for VM 'sun-jdk-1.6' does not exist: /usr/lib/jvm/sun-jdk-1.6
* Invalid System VM: sun-jdk-1.6

and not
$ java
bash: java: command not found
?

Why I getting the following error massages:

$ eselect java-vm list

[5] icedtea-bin-6
[6] oracle-jdk-bin-1.7
[7] sun-jdk-1.6 system-vm

and why sun-jdk-1.6 is system-vm I did not installed it?

Are these bugs?
