The prerequisite Eclipse software for GEP can be downloaded as a single download, which is called the Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers. It can be downloaded from the Eclipse Downloads site. Download and extract the Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers archive , (for e.g. eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR1-win32.zip), to a directory of your choice (for e.g. C:\eclipse). The archive will be extracted to a directory named eclipse under the directory you specified (for e.g. C:\eclipse\eclipse), referred to as <eclipse_home> from now on. Make sure that the JDK in the PATH is Sun JDK 5.0. Launch Eclipse by running <eclipse_home>/eclipse.

Downloading and installing Eclipse and WTP separately

The Eclipse IDE can be downloaded separately from the Eclipse Downloads site. Download and extract the Eclipse classic archive (for e.g. eclipse-SDK-3.4.1-win32.zip), to a directory of your choice (referred to as <eclipse_home>). The archive will be extracted to the directory <eclipse_home>/eclipse.
To install WTP, you can download the Web Tools Platform Complete manually from the Eclipse WTP download, and extract the archive (for e.g. wtp-R-3.0.3-20081113203138.zip), to the directory (eclipse_home>/eclipse/dropins.
