Question

how to move the eclipse development platforms into one on ubuntu

Answer 1

A:

I think the best solution is to start from a clean installation and install components from the UI of this install. You can for example install first

Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers

and then install the 2 other ones using the Help -> Install new Software menu.

The main goal of this solution is about dependencies. The install software action (using P2 internally) will manage dependencies for you. The copy solution you mentioned should result in dependencies not resolved and difficult to identify.

as you said i tried to do " .. and then install the 2 other ones using the Help -> Install new Software menu. ..." but eclipse will not detect the other frameworks e.g. Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers folder or zip as a repository @Manuel Selva

you should not use your local install as installation software repository but look on eclipse web site to find the update site of the features you need (CDT,PHP,Pulsar)

Or choose the default repository (called Galileo or Ganymede) or something like that

the files found on the default repository are the same as the individual frameworks why do i need the update site then? actually that is my q? if you get me
