editing Java™
files. Discover what they are and how to use them, and when you're finished, you may be
saying, "I didn't know that!" In this tutorial
This tutorial shows how to be more productive with Eclipse Europa, providing 10 ways to
speed up your development in Eclipse. Many of the features shown for productivity are
either new or improved features introduced in Eclipse Europa. Objectives You will learn about how to better use refactoring tools, search tools,
workspaces, and code templates. After completing this tutorial, you should be an
Eclipse power user — able to be more productive by doing less. Our goal
is to show you how to leverage Eclipse features to perform mundane tasks.
Prerequisites
It helps if you have used Eclipse
before and have done a bit of Java development. You don't have to be an expert, but you
should know enough about the Java programming language to recognize the basic syntax and
paradigms to get the most out of the refactoring parts of this tutorial.
System requirements
To follow the examples, you need
Eclipse Europa and one of the operating systems that
Eclipse supports — Mac OS X, Microsoft® Windows®, or Linux®.
You also need a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) — at least JRE for Java V5 is recommended.
