Creating a new java project in eclipse
I'm trying to program in Java with it. It's my understanding, in eclipse, I need to create file > new java project. However, I'm not see the "new java project" as an option.

Am new to this forum. Do you know how to attach an image to a post? It maybe easier if I can attach the image of what I'm seeing.

When it works (Not working for me right now)
Click on Go Advanced and then Manage Attachments

Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
Thanks for responding back. Unfortunately, going to advanced and then manage attachements is not working. I'm looking into compiling as best as I can via text.

Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
I see lots of versions of Eclipse. Mine is very old.
Does this version look better for java development:

Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
It sounds like you are suggesting that I download the java eclipse version at the site that you provided. Which is fine, but, I wanted to confirm before I download it. Please confirm.Originally Posted by Norm
Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
Yes, I think there are multiple versions of the eclipse IDE and perhaps there is another one that is better for what you want to do.
I downloaded and installed from the zip version: eclipse-java-2024-09-R-win32-x86_64.zip
The version info:
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (includes Incubating components)
Version: 2024-09 (4.33.0)
Build id: 20240905-0614

Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
Thank you - I will take a look at a different eclipse version.
Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
Hi, sorry for the late reply. I have been cleaning up my computer, to free up space so I could download the version. My computer now finally has enough space for a download. So, I do see the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers - I'll look into installing that version.
Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
So, I have the new version of eclipse that was recommended, it is the 2024-09 version. Sorry if this question is very basic - I've never used eclipse. So, is starting a new java project as simple as it looks, I would go to File > Project > Then navigate to the Java folder? Then, that's it?
Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
Have you tried searching on the internet for examples? For example, I found this:

Re: Creating a new java project in eclipse
Hi,
Admittedly I didn't search for examples on the Internet. However, what you provided should suffice. Thank you for this link - I will look into more.
