I ve dowloaded JDK and Eclipse and javaChrome , but it doesn't start ?

Question

hi all,
I ve dowloaded JDK and Eclipse and javaChrome but it doesn't start ? Do I have to download something else ? What is the 64bit Java Virtual Machine ?

I thought it was the JDK Windows 64bit , wasn't it ?
I wanted to go on the java claases & Object course , as you have to create classes on the Eclipse editor .
thanks a lot for your help !

(I wrote to Eclipse.org team but I ve received any answer yet) .

Pretty sure you downloaded the Eclipse launcher.
If you downloaded it from the eclipse.org site directly, don't worry and let the launcher download the Eclipse IDE. If you downloaded it from another site, drop it and download from the official site.

Here is a site with a direct download link for Photon, which is not the latest version, but from June 2018 (the launcher would download the latest version from September 2018, which is the latest version, doesn't really matter):
https://www.eclipse.org/photon/

Answer 2

What exactly doesn't start? Any error messages?
Just a guess, but... Did you set up the system environment variables correctly (Java home path)?

Answer 3

JDK is for development but eclipse needs java to run. Therefore you need java runtime. All java code is run in virtual machine. You basically can use the 32bit as well as the 64bit version.

Answer 4

See if you were running Debian Linux, installing JDK installs JVM by default.
And, _no_, you cannot run 32 or 64. You _must_ match your architecture or it will either not work or be slower on things like floating points.
If you have a ____ processor/arch:
32-bit: You cannot run 64-bit Java.
64-bit: You can run 32-bit Java at an extra cost.

Requirements (What you need):
JDK latest stable (8 or 9, iirc)
JVM latest stable (8 or 9, iirc)
Any editor. Notepad/Notepad++/Atom/etc.

* You don't need an IDE. But if you have Eclipse running, I _think_ JVM is installed on your system because I _think_ Eclipse is part/whole written in Java.

* I thought JVM was included in JDK. WTF? That is yet another reason to hate Microsuck Winblows and love GNU/Linux.

Please watch the joined document . It may help you to understand :

@TashiN the Eclipse-inst-win 64 doesn't want to open and install itself . I don't see it in my programm computer list .
Whereas I see the others Java Chrome-Install-8u191 and JDK 11.0.1.0 Java (TE) Plateform Binary

When I click on the Eclupse icon , it goes to the website to dowload it . Should I have downloaded the 2018 version ?

@nonzyro yes I have notepad but not Linux . It is said to be better , isn't it ?

thanks for your help !

Answer 6

@TashiN thanks for your reply !
It drives me here once again when I click on the icon
http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/?vm=1_1_7_0_64_0&pn=Eclipse%20Installer&pu=http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Installer&pi=http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/128x128.png

... but I think that maybe you're right I need to download the java environnement . Is it that java 1.7.0 (64bit) ?

Here is what I get when I ask the terminal about the java version :

thanks

Answer 7

You have java runtime environmet already installed. It's the entry "java 8 update 191" but with wrong version. It seems that you will need java 7. I suggest to download and install JRE 1.7.0 and would prefer the 64 bit version.

@MirkoKlotzsche
OOPS ! sure of that ? look :
https://www.cjoint.com/c/HKdryVKpJQw

...and what about Eclipse ? I m surprised not to see it appear anywhere in program files ???

Answer 9

Why don't you use the link from that post http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/?vm=1_1_7_0_64_0&pn=Eclipse%20Installer&pu=http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Installer&pi=http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/128x128.png?

Thanks for your help all !

Answer 11

@MirkoKlotzsche your link is good but not enough because I dowloaded it at the beginning (see upwards) but something was missing : the jdk 1.8.0 .92 and jre 1.8.0.92 java version . (What is on oracle.com seems not to be good ??? I m surprised. ) . Thanks Mirko !

Answer 12

I assume you want write java code so choose java Developer.

Answer 13

Would you please explain what your problem was? Maybe it could help other users later. I had never such problems. But EDP is no exact science 😉.
