I'm going to top-post:
I used the eclipse classic and then added the JEE version, since I
wanted to use BIRT.
So, I suppose the answer is "Yes."

Hi,
I've been trying to get Derby working with eclipse 3.4.1, aka
Ganymede.
I followed the instructions on the derby site, unzipping and
copying the files to the ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins dir:
plugins/org.apache.derby.core_10.4.2
plugins/org.apache.derby.ui_1.1.2
plugins/org.apache.derby.plugin.doc_1.1.2
For this version of eclipse, there is already a Derby core in the
plugins dir:
org.apache.derby.core_10.3.1.4:
META-INF about_files derby.jar
about.html asl-v20.txt plugin.xml
The eclipse update manager does not report it as installed, oddly
enough. However, it does get picked up.
When I restart eclipse, the Derby UI and docs are available, but it
is picking up the 10.3.1.4 version of the core, because only
derby.jar is available.
I know this because when I run ij from eclipse I get:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/
apache/derby/tools/ij
on the console window.
That tool is in derbytools.jar, which is not in the 10.3.1.4 core
plugin dir.
If I delete the org.apache.derby.core_10.3.1.4 dir, and restart,
10.4.2 is still not picked up.
Something is wrong with the plugin for 10.4.2 for eclipse 3.4.1.
Has anyone seen this before? Got a fix?
The last version I know of that was tested with the plugins was:
Version: 3.3.1.1
Build id: M20071023-1652
So, there may indeed be a problem with 3.4.1. I couldn't find
anything on a Google search though. I noticed on the download page
there are several options.

Did you use the JEE package? That is the only one I see with a
reference to Derby?
