Debian Linux Install Eclipse Java / C / C++ IDE

by

You can install Eclipse on Debian-based systems, such as Debian or Ubuntu, by using the following steps:

  1. Download the latest version of Eclipse from the official Eclipse website (https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/).
  2. Extract the downloaded archive to your preferred location using the following command:
tar -zxvf eclipse-*.tar.gz
  1. Launch Eclipse by running the eclipse executable located in the extracted directory.
./eclipse/eclipse
  1. To make it easier to launch Eclipse in the future, you can create a symbolic link to the eclipse executable in a directory that is included in your PATH, such as /usr/local/bin/.
sudo ln -s /path/to/eclipse/eclipse /usr/local/bin/eclipse

After installing Eclipse, you can install plugins for Java, C, or C++ development as needed. To install plugins, you can use the Eclipse Marketplace or the Install New Software option in the Help menu.
