How can I upgrade eclipse helios?


I tried to upgrade eclipse helios by Help--> Check for updates. But the progressing bar stops at 38% and never completes. I'm developing php applications using this eclipse helios. Can anyone suggest how can I upgrade this eclipse helios ?

I'm using windows 7 (64-bit) and my current eclipse version is 3.6.0

Thank you

  • I also face a similar issue sometimes with eclipse updates. If you want to complete upgrade to the Kepler version, I would strongly advise you to download a fresh copy of it from the official web-site. And yes you can use it for PHP coding as well, its just a matter of setting up proper plugins. The PDT (PHP Development Tools) plugin is available for Kepler.
