Introduction
Sharcnet provides a module for the Eclipse SDK based on the download-able Eclipse Classic 4.2.2 package. Once the module is loaded and the eclipse gui is up and running, users can easily install any of the available add-on packages found in the left hand column of the package comparison table. The installation procedure is explained in the General Notes section below ie) for the purpose of customizing and extended eclipses capability to ones programming needs.

Adding Intel C++ Compiler and Debugger
The following stanza is reproduced from the intel online Documention.
The Intel® C++ Compiler for Linux* OS provides integrations for the compiler and the Intel® Debugger to Eclipse* and CDT that let you develop, build, and debug your Intel® C/C++ projects in an interactive visual environment. To add the Intel® C++ Compiler product extension to your Eclipse* configuration: 1. Start Eclipse*. 2. Select Help > Install New Software. 3. Next to the Work with field, click the Add button. The Add Repository dialog opens. 4. Click the Local button and browse to the install_dir/eclipse_support/cdt8.0/eclipse directory. 5. Click OK. 6. Make sure Group items by category is not checked. 7. Select the options beginning with Intel® you wish to integrate, and click Next. 8. Follow the installation instructions. 9. When asked if you want to restart Eclipse*, select Yes. When Eclipse* restarts, you can create and work with CDT projects that use the Intel® C++ compiler. <pre> ==Installing Fortran IDE plugin for Eclipse== This section shows the basic procedure for installing packages into eclipse. The installation of Photran (the Fortran IDE plugin for Eclipse) which works with the intel compiler and most other compilers is used as an example. Many other packages can similarly be installed. Since the eclipse download repository is external to the sharcnet network, package installation must be done on iqaluk or a viz station and not on a devel node. Once the required addon packages are installed they are available on any other sharcnet system where eclipse might be started. Note that the packages are installed under your <i>~/.eclipse</i> directory hence significant disk space consumption could occur depending how many packages are added. <pre> 1) ssh -Y iqaluk.sharcnet.ca 2) module load eclipse 3) eclipse (start workbench) 4) select the default workspace /home/myusername/workspace then click Ok 5) click Help on top pull down menu, then click Install New Software 6) for "Work with:" enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno/ --> click Add 7) for "Name:" enter juno422 8) for "Location:" enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno/ --> click Ok 9) from the "Available Software" menu click the Programming Languages pulldown tick check boxes "Linux Intel Compiler Support" and "Fortran Development Tools" 10) click Next --> click Next again --> Review and Agree to license agreement
Querying Installed Packages
1) Start eclipse 2) click Help on top pull down menu 3) click About Eclipse SDK 4) click Installation Details button.
Note that Eclipse SDK will appear as the first entry, and is the sharcnet eclipse module. Any other packages shown were manually installed by the user.
