I want an Eclipse Java EE plugin which I can install directly from Eclipse.
I searched about it on Google and found some ones but couldn't figure out how to download them directly from Eclipse.
One plugin I found was WTP but couldn't find the location of the WTP repository that I can enter in the Eclipse's Software Update tool.
I am using Eclipse 3.4.2 (Ganymede)

Select Help -> Software Updates.. from the menu. On the next screen select Available Software tab, and expand Ganymede. Expand Web and Java EE Development, select Java EE Developer Tools and Web Developer Tools. Click Install.
The Java EE Tools Project provides frameworks and tools focused on the development of Java EE artifacts. Currently, the project supports (Java EE) 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, Java EE 5, 6 and 7.
If you are using Eclipse for only Enterprise Development, then as everybody has recommended I would use the Eclipse Java EE version. If you plan on occasionally using it for other development purposes then I would consider downloading a separate classic version as well.
I warmly suggest to install Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers which already includes the Web Tools Platform (WTP) and much more (see this page for a full comparison).
As an alternative, you can download a zip of the Web Tools from here or install it via Update Manager using this URL:
