Getting Started With Eclipse

Eclipse is a powerful tool used by professional programmers all over the world. It has a great diversity of capabilities. You will need to learn only a small amount about the Java Workbench. There are two sets of tutorials to help you get started using the Java Workbench. One is a video tutorial and the other a web document. Use whichever you find more useful.
