You'll get some pizza :-). Seriously though, I'll be covering a range of stuff: * Installation and configuration * Basic coding in eclipse * Code refactoring * Runtime profiles * Debugging (local and remote), Inspecting, hot deploying of new code * Source control - CVS, local history, diff * Source code navigation * Automagic source code formatting * Useful keyboard shortcuts * Custom easy-to-create templates * Simple example of developing an SWT app * Installing plugins * Installing support or special versions of eclipse for - ruby, perl, python, C#, C/C++. and others? * Anything else people are curious about We'll write a few simple apps to demonstrate the features of eclipse as we go. I hope this sheds some light on what we'll be doing. Only you can decide if this presentation will be a worthly of your evening. -Bryan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
