What is eclipse?

Question

in terms of java

Answer 1

I think you are referring to the software. Eclipse is a java supported software that lets you do all your JAVA coding in their environment. You can create java classes or even code in other languages using Eclipse. It is a user-friendly software that lets you compile, execute, and program in JAVA. It is similiar to other softwares such as JBUILDER and WSAD.

You can even import java files and libraries and your own server to customize how you want your program to run.....such as STRUTS and even applets. It depends on what type of architecture you want to build in.
