| 11 | |||
| 12 | The first requirement for installing WOLips is that you have Eclipse. It is recommended that you install Eclipse 3.3.2 to use WOLips. To install Eclipse, go to the [[Eclipse 3.3.2 Download Site>>http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/]] and download (Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers recommended) the build that matches your operating system and uncompress it. | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | Note: Eclipse 3.4 is not recommended for WOLips stable, if you plan to use the Latest Eclipse you need to use the Nightly build. | ||
