Description Thies Thate 2013-06-03 21:01:11 CEST

I installed Eclipse Platform version 4.2.1 for programming in Java.
After adding eclipse-jdt 4.2.1 8.mga3 I can use the Java Perspective.
Now I'm looking for a gui builder/swing designer like windowbuilder.
Does someone know how to add this from the Mageia repository?

(I can download eclipse-java-juno-SR2-linux-gtk.tar.gz which includes windowbuilder. But I like to use Mageia supported software.)

And after unpacking this in my homedir I have a beautiful Eclipse-Java-juno version working including windowbuilder and much more.
