Click Choose from list It will show up all the python installed and select one for you. Hope it helps some one. It resolve my problem.

Get to coding!

Work anywhere thanks to Eclipse's cloud-based feature that shares your projects to the cloud.

Developed in Java with its main focus being Java, you're able to code in a variety of languages such as Ada, C, C++, COBOL, Fortran, D, JavaScript, Groovy, Erlang, Haskell, Julia, Lau, Lasso, Python, Ruby, and many more languages thanks to the multitude of plugins available. Expanding upon coding uses, you're also capable of using Eclipse to develop documents for LaTeX, and create packages for Mathematica.

Eclipse is open source and free, which means that you get frequent updates, many versions with unique features to choose from and a wide variety of plugins. This also means you're fully capable of taking Eclipse's code and developing an IDE that suits your personal needs, all while coding within Eclipse itself.

Projects created within Eclipse are easy to maintain and keep secure. However, if you are sharing your computer, other users may be able to access your projects.

Eclipse is great if you're trying to learn a new programming language, especially if you already know one as you won't need to install a secondary IDE for that language. To find the new plugin you need for the next language you're learning, simply use Eclipse's marketplace. The marketplace has thousands of plugins and tools that are ready to be installed.

Where can you run this program?

Eclipse can be installed on Windows computers, Mac Cocoa, and Linux systems. This gives you full cross-platform use thanks to the cloud feature of Eclipse.

Is there a better alternative?

No, there are many IDE programs out there such as WebStorm IDE, but no IDE truly has as many plugins available and supports as many languages as Eclipse.

Our take

Eclipse Pydev Mac

Eclipse is a robust development environment with thousands of plugins supported. The vast selection gives you multiple languages to choose from and other handy add-ons.

Should you download it?

Yes, if you're a developer or if you're looking to code, then this is a must-have tool. It contains an extensive collection of plugins and supports many programming languages.

Install Python before installing Eclipse.

You may want to print these instructions before proceeding, so that you can refer to them while downloading and installing Eclipse. Or, just keep this document in your browser. You should read each step completely before performing the action that it describes. This document shows downloading and installing Eclipse (Luna). You should download and install the latest version of Eclipse. The current latest (as of Fall 2018) is Eclipse 2018-09.

Eclipse: Luna

The Eclipse download requires about 200 MB of disk space; keep it on your machine, in case you need to re-install Eclipse. When installed, Eclipse requires an additional 200 MB of disk space.

Downloading

Installing Eclipse For Python Mac Os

  1. Click Eclipse

    The following page will appear in your browser. In this handout we will download Eclipse Standard 4.4 for Mac OS. The version you should download is Eclipse IDE for Eclipse Committers.

    It is critical that Java, Python, and Eclipse are either all 32 Bit or are all 64 Bit (and only if your Machine/OS supports 64 Bit): I think it easiest on Macs to use 64 Bit for everything.

  2. Click the 64-bit after Mac Cocoa for your machine, to the right of Eclipse Standard 4.4 (right under Eclipse Luna R Packages).

    You will see the following page (don't worry about the name of the institution to the right of the big downward pointing arrow).

  3. Click the big downward pointing arrow underneath the Download eclipse-standard-luna-R-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz from: The site named here, in purple to the right of the arrow: [United States] ibiblio (http) is the random one chosen by the download page this time; yours may differ.

    If you see the following pop-up window

    ensure the Save File radio button is depressed and click OK.

    This file should start downloading in your standard download folder. This file is about 200 Mb so it might take a while to download fully if you are on a slow internet connection (it took me a few minutes over a cable modem). Don't worry about the exact time as long as the download continues to make steady progress.

    Online Video Downloader by SaveFrom.Net is an excellent service that helps to download online videos or music quickly and free of charge. Don't need to install other software or look for an online service that works for downloading online videos anymore. Here is SaveFrom! It helps to download video, TV shows, or sports games from a lot of. SaveFrom.net is not available for Mac but there are plenty of alternatives that runs on macOS with similar functionality. The most popular Mac alternative is youtube-dl, which is both free and Open Source.If that doesn't suit you, our users have ranked more than 100 alternatives to SaveFrom.net and many of them are available for Mac so hopefully you can find a suitable replacement. Savefrom for microsoft edge. For Safari browser on Mac OS Helper for another browsers. Install the Tempermonkey extension from the AppStore if you do not have one yet. Install Tempermonkey Why is it needed? Install the SaveFrom.net Helper script. Make sure that the script is installed.

    After the download has finished, terminate the window browsing the Eclipse download.

  1. Unzip eclipse-standard-luna-R-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz by double-clicking it.

    Unzipping this file creates a folder named eclipse; unzipping 200 MB can take a few minutes. You can leave this folder here or move it elsewhere on your hard disk.

  2. Create an alias on the desktop to to the eclipse file in this eclipse folder:
    On the Mac, you can
    • Control-click the file eclipse.exe
    • Select the Make Alias option.
    • Move it to the desktop.

    Leave unchecked the Use this as the default and do not ask again box. Although you will use this same workspace for the entire quarter (checking projects in and out of it), it is best to see this Workspace Launcher pop-up window each time you start Eclipse, to remind you where your workspace is located.

    In fact, it is a good idea to create on your desktop an alias to your workspace folder; but you must click OK (see below) before Eclipse creates this folder and you can alias it.
