I downloaded Eclipse plain Java version and now I realize that I need of Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers distribution.
I'm new in Eclipse world and I would to know if it is possible (and how) to install Java EE plugins via Eclipse.
Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites. Click 'Add' Enter the URL of the new repository (for example, https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-12/ ). Click 'Ok'
And if what you want to do is develop for EE, then there are Eclipse plugins/features/whatever for that ... So basically it's recommended (or safer) to just remove my Java SE, install Java EE. Then remove Eclipse and install 'Eclipse for EE development' ? There's no need to uninstall Java SE.
Click on the Window tab in Eclipse, go to Preferences and when that window comes up, go to Java → Installed JREs → Execution Environment and choose JavaSE-1.5. You then have to go to Compiler and set the Compiler compliance level.
There is a thread in ServerFault that shows how to install the Java EE pluggins for Eclipse Java EE plugin for Eclipse IDE
