    Best Eclipse Tutorials and Videos on the Web

    Eclipse is a general purpose professional open source IDE (integrated development environment) for programming and application development. It is primarily used with the Java programming language and is becoming the most popular Java development environment and IDE. I have spent some time searching the Internet for the best Eclipse tutorials and learning materials available for no cost. Here are my selections, categorized between the Best Video Eclipse Tutorials and the Best Eclipse Tutorials. Many of these will show and teach you how to install and start programming immediately using Java and Eclipse.

    Creating Tools for AJAX Development

    Tools for building HTML/Javascript and so-called AJAX-style applications are sparse. Mozilla has traditionally had the best tools in Venkman and its DOM Inspector, but recently development has been stagnant and these tools do not offer integration with active code development. The Eclipse AJAX Toolkit Framework brings these types of tools into the Eclipse IDE -- making use of the Java XPCOM to Java bridge and leveraging the robust features of Eclipse, while leaving the environment pluggable for more enhancements.

    Eclipse Video Courseware

    This course is taught as a two day seminar, and incorporates installation of the Eclipse Platform Java Development Tools and the CodeRally package, for which you’ll develop some samples plug-in tools for Eclipse.
