How do you install Eclipse for Java on Linux / Kali Linux?
Java Development Kit installed on your system.
If you have not installed JDK, you can download and install it using the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
You can download Eclipse IDE for Java Developers from the official website. Alternatively, you can use the following command in the terminal to download Eclipse:
wget https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/epp/downloads/release/2021-06/R/eclipse-java-2021-06-R-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz&mirror_id=1209 -O eclipse-java.tar.gz
Once you have downloaded the Eclipse tarball, move it into the desired location and extract it using the following command
tar xvzf [file_name.tar.gz ]
or
tar xvf [ file_name.tar.gz ]
Example
tar -xvf eclipse-java-2021-06-R-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
The basic command is tar, followed by four options:
x - instructs tar to extract the files from the zipped file.
v - lists out the files it's extracting.
z - instructs tar to decompress the files.
f - tells tar the filename
Step 4: Choose a workspace
When you launch Eclipse for the first time, it will prompt you to choose a workspace. A workspace is a directory where Eclipse stores your projects and settings. You can choose a default workspace or create a new one.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Eclipse on Kali Linux Latest. You can now start developing software applications using Eclipse.
