Installing XEclipse
XEclipse can be installed either as a standalone application or as a plugin integrated in the standard Eclipse IDE.
To install XEclipse as a standalone application just unzip the downloaded ZIP file into a directory (usually your application directory) and run the XEclipse launcher by double clicking on its icon. The standalone application is provided for all the major platforms and systems: Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
Installing XEclipse as a plugin is as easy as unzipping the downloaded ZIP file into the root of your eclipse installation directory. We will soon provide an eclipse update site so that XEclipse can be installed right from within the IDE itself.
Warning: You'll need Eclipse Ganymede 3.4 Full version or above if you install XEclipse as a plugin.
