Hello,

I am working on some java projects and came accross the term "Eclipse"... which according to eclipse.com, it is development environment.

As I read more, it seems like that it is nothing more than simply a text editng tool with the ability to run some java files, compiles and debugs... so why shall I use Eclipse instead of the JDK editor ?

i m really new to this, so mayb i m missing many things

thanks,
