In any Fedora release, typing the following in a terminal (as root) will
get you the latest set of packages that make up the Eclipse SDK:

yum update eclipse-pde

Fedora 9 (note:  no "Core" anymore) shipped with OpenJDK which is a
1.6-level JDK.  It will get brought in automatically as a dependency of
Eclipse.  You can use your own JDK by either setting up your alternative
or pointing Eclipse at it with:  eclipse -vm /path/to/java/bin

HTH,
