Not sure if this is still helpful for you, but others might like it. Eclipse has a very useful tutorial for learning the basic functions. It will walk you through writing a HelloWorld class in Eclipse and how to run it. If you want to use Eclipse but aren't familiar with the IDE, but already closed the Welcome page, you can reach the tutorial in Eclipse_Juno Developer Version (Juno is the latest release of the Eclipse IDE at the time of this writing) by going to Help > Welcome. This will bring up the Welcome page again. There should be a few buttons on the screen. One of which is labeled, by hover text, as Tutorials.
Hope this helps.
