I like to use eclipse oxygen for java development. I haven't used this IDE for a about year. I remember really liking it. However, I remember it not being the easiest IDE to install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the java I have installed.

I have no idea what is going on. Please feel free to suggest another IDE.

To run Eclipse with Java 9 you need to modify the 'eclipse.ini' file in your Eclipse installation and add the line:
--add-modules=java.se.ee
as a line following the -vmargs line in the file. This adds the Java 9 module containing the missing classes.
You can also use
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
See Eclipse Wiki: Configure Eclipse for Java 9.
Eclipse Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a) is due to be released on 11 October (2017) with full Java 9 support.

Your eclipse.ini should contain something like:
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM

Java 9 has some subtle changes that large programs tend to have problems with. Eclipse has issues both with running under Java 9 and using Java 9 as the Java Runtime Environment in the Workspace.
Until a official version of Eclipse supporting Java 9 comes out (apparently at October 11th), non-power users may have a better experience by downgrading to Java 8.

To run Eclipse with Java 9 you need to modify the 'eclipse.ini' file in your Eclipse installation and add the line:
--add-modules=java.se.ee
as a line following the -vmargs line in the file. This adds the Java 9 module containing the missing classes.
You can also use
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
See Eclipse Wiki: Configure Eclipse for Java 9.
Eclipse Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a) is due to be released on 11 October (2017) with full Java 9 support.
Your eclipse.ini should contain something like:
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
Java 9 has some subtle changes that large programs tend to have problems with. Eclipse has issues both with running under Java 9 and using Java 9 as the Java Runtime Environment in the Workspace.
Until a official version of Eclipse supporting Java 9 comes out (apparently at October 11th), non-power users may have a better experience by downgrading to Java 8.

I like to use eclipse oxygen for java development. I haven't used this IDE for a about year. I remember really liking it. However, I remember it not being the easiest IDE to install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the java I have installed.

To run Eclipse with Java 9 you need to modify the 'eclipse.ini' file in your Eclipse installation and add the line:
--add-modules=java.se.ee
as a line following the -vmargs line in the file. This adds the Java 9 module containing the missing classes.
You can also use
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
See Eclipse Wiki: Configure Eclipse for Java 9.
Eclipse Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a) is due to be released on 11 October (2017) with full Java 9 support.
Your eclipse.ini should contain something like:
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
Java 9 has some subtle changes that large programs tend to have problems with. Eclipse has issues both with running under Java 9 and using Java 9 as the Java Runtime Environment in the Workspace.
Until a official version of Eclipse supporting Java 9 comes out (apparently at October 11th), non-power users may have a better experience by downgrading to Java 8.

Why is Eclipse not starting for me? [duplicate]

To run Eclipse with Java 9 you need to modify the 'eclipse.ini' file in your Eclipse installation and add the line:
--add-modules=java.se.ee
as a line following the -vmargs line in the file. This adds the Java 9 module containing the missing classes.
You can also use
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
See Eclipse Wiki: Configure Eclipse for Java 9.
Eclipse Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a) is due to be released on 11 October (2017) with full Java 9 support.
Your eclipse.ini should contain something like:
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
Java 9 has some subtle changes that large programs tend to have problems with. Eclipse has issues both with running under Java 9 and using Java 9 as the Java Runtime Environment in the Workspace.
Until a official version of Eclipse supporting Java 9 comes out (apparently at October 11th), non-power users may have a better experience by downgrading to Java 8.
