The following link states that “A Java or RCP version of Eclipse is recommended. For Eclipse 3.5, the “Eclipse Classic” version is recommended.”
http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
However, Eclipse 3.6 is available and as a total newbie I am not sure whether the recommendation for “Eclipse Classic” over RCP (or Java) still holds true.
Can you clarify?
Thanks you.
Just follow the recommendation and download and install eclipse classic 3.6 for a start, then add the android. You can always add additional eclipse functionality (plugins) later without breaking or loosing something.
Here is a page to compare the distributions.
Classic is a good choice. Alternativly I’d choose not RCP but ‘Modeling’ because it includes Mylin (task management) and install the XML tools later on (nice XML viewer/editor).
