Starting to Program C++ and Java
- by user0321
So as the title states, I'm trying to start programming in C++ and Java. I took C++ and Java courses in high school and I'm trying to get back into it. Of course all I want to get working now is a simple "Hello World" program.
Couple of things:
I want to use an IDE. I've decided on Eclipse. I'm just confused about how I go about downloading/using it.
For Java:
I get stuck right on their download page. They show Eclipse Classic, Eclipse IDE for Java developers and Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers. I only programmed in Notepad and compiled in command prompt.
Question 1:
Which version of Eclipse should I download?
Question 2:
Do I need to install the Java JDK or does it come built into Eclipse?
For C++:
I guess I download the separate Eclipse IDE for C/C++ developers? I'm not too sure. I remember using Microsoft Visual for C++. I remember it being weird though. Anyways
Question 3:
Which version of Eclipse should I download?
Question 4:
Does C++ have a Development Kit or does it come built into Eclipse?
