Eclipse IDE tips

I started my career programming in c and assembly languages. It was only later after few years I switched over to java programming. I used to use Netbeans initially, but there was something about eclipse that I fell in love with.

Step 1:
Download and install eclipse IDE from link below.
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

Step 2:
Tweak the [Eclipse Home]/eclipse.ini if needed:

 
 -startup
 plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
 --launcher.library
 plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.100.v20110502
 -showsplash
 org.eclipse.platform
 --launcher.XXMaxPermSize
 --launcher.defaultAction
 openFile
 -vmargs
 -Xms40m
 -Xmx768m

Step 3:

Tweak the Eclipse preferences.
