Eclipse

How This Book Is Organized

This book is divided into subsections, which are grouped into sections, which come together to make chapters, which are lumped finally into four parts. (When you write a book, you get to know your book’s structure pretty well. After months of writing, you find yourself dreaming in sections and chapters when you go to bed at night.)

Part I: The Eclipse Landscape

To a novice, the look and feel of Eclipse can be intimidating. The big Eclipse window contains many smaller windows, and some of the smaller windows have dozens of menus and buttons. When you first see all this, you may expe¬rience “Eclipse shock.”

Part I helps you overcome Eclipse shock. This part guides you through each piece of Eclipse’s user interface, and explains how each piece works.

Part II: Using the Eclipse Environment

Part II shows you what to do with Eclipse’s vast system of menus. Edit Java source files, use refactoring to improve your code, search for elements withinyour Java projects. Everything you can think of doing with a Java program lies somewhere within these menus. (In fact, everything that everyone ever thought of doing with anything lies somewhere within these menus.)

Part III: Doing More with Eclipse

What more is there to do? Lots more. Part III describes ways to customize a Java project and the run of a Java program. This part also tells you how to find help on Eclipse’s murkier features.
Part IV: The Part of Tens

The Part of Tens is a little Eclipse candy store. In The Part of Tens, you can find lots of useful tips.
