Yet another "advantage" of Eclipse. it doesn't get "installed" the way you're thinking. You extract the install file to a directory, and that's it. You can install it to a folder on your desktop, and run it from there. Then, copy the folder to another location (c:\program files\eclipse, for example) and run it from there. You can pop it on a flash drive and run it from there. to delete it, just delete the folder. no messy remnants left behind. This is a very nice "feature" when new versions are released. I've had Eclipse 3.2 and Eclipse 3.3 running side by side for some time now. They're just executables running from different locations. It's all very nice and neat :) -- "Scientists tell us that the fastest animal on earth, with a top speed of 120 feet per second, is a cow that has been dropped out of a helicopter." - Dave Barry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
