General Notes
Preparation (first time use only)

Running Eclipse (on a devel node)
1) ssh -Y orca.sharcnet.ca 2) ssh -Y orc-dev1 3) module load eclipse 4) eclipse
Installing Packages (on iqaluk)
This section provides an example of installing two packages into eclipse related to fortran programming. Many other packages can similarly be installed. Since the eclipse download repository is external to the sharcnet network, package installation must be done on iqaluk or a viz station and not on a devel node. Once the required addon packages are installed they are available on any other sharcnet system where eclipse might be started. Note that the packages are installed under your ~/.eclipse directory hence significant disk space consumption could occur depending how many packages are added.
