Eclipse Running [message #886147]

Hello,

I am a real newbie to both Eclipse and Java after moving over in my job from a .NET and UNIX background, so please bear with me.

After downloading Eclipse Indigo EE yesterday and going through the first two tutorials I notice Eclispe is not actually installed on my PC and the JDK has not been installed either. Does this mean Eclipse works as a sort of run time application similar to Oracles SQL Developer?

Also, can I install the actual JDK and learn some Java using notepad without a conflict in Java applications occurring?

Thanks in advance

Ajf
