Using the Eclipse Workbench
Mark Dexter’s done it again. If you’re new to the Eclipse Workbench and need a tour, take a look here. For the uninitiated, the workbench is the focal point of an IDE built on Eclipse.

If you’re thinking, for example, of using the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers download from the eclipse.org downloads page, another Eclipse distribution, or a product built on Eclipse technology, this tutorial is a good starting point.

I don’t see a link for the tutorial. Am I blind?

Hi Remy. The “here” in the second line of the blog links to the website. From there, you can link to the download page. HTH.

Thanks, Mark. I was only looking around the last sentence and didn’t bother to look elsewhere.

It would be great to have these tutorials added to Eclipse Live.
