Eclipse, how to combine 2 editions

Question

I'm using the PHP edition of Eclipse, but was told that I also need the Java EE edition. I'd like to install them both in the same install (single launch) and not have to open 2 editions in parallel. Is there a way to easily get this done? I'm new to eclipse, so detailed instructions are welcome.

Answer 1

I would do it the other way around: first install Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers and then add the PHP Development Tools (PDT) from the update site (instructions here).
