What's New in Eclipse IDE
summary
Eclipse IDE adds concrete developer-facing features: Java 17 support available via a Marketplace plugin now and built-in in an upcoming release; Project Explorer can show a hierarchical view; and 71 automatic code cleanups (var, streams, switch patterns) modernize code. Editor completion now offers fuzzy matching and subtype suggestions, quick actions surface preferences and refactorings via Ctrl‑3/Ctrl‑1, the debugger shows call-chain values and inspects lambdas and introduces tracepoints, and the console gains wrap, timestamps and horizontal scrolling; many features are already shipping in current releases.
