I don't have "Dynamic Web Project" option in Eclipse new Project wizard

I have download the Eclipse IDE for Java developer, HELIOS. I click 'File -> New -> Project...', but I only have "General, CVS, Java project, Examples". I would like to be able to create "dynamic web project", why do I not have this option?

I searched from internet, and the reason is probably I don't have Eclipse Web Development Tools, but how can I get it?

-----------EDIT-----------

I know by install Eclipse IDE for Java EE developer can solve the problem. But, I am working under Linux Ubuntu, how to get Eclipse Java EE version for Ubuntu Linux machine?

Solution

  • I think you need the Web Tools Platform package for this. Not very sure though. You can add it to your current eclipse through Help > install new software.

    Then add the software repository site location for WTP for your version of eclipse. This is how you can install plugins in eclipse.
