The Eclipse IDE installer does not natively support silent installations, which prevents us from including this application in our catalog at this time. As a portable application, it can be extracted and run from any location. The vendor provides a ZIP file that users can extract to their desired location. However, our current detection scripts rely on a DisplayName and DisplayVersion being present in the Add/Remove Programs (ARP) entry.
To address this limitation, it may be possible to configure Eclipse as a Custom App, utilizing scripting to extract the zip file to your preferred installation directory, create shortcuts, and create the necessary ARP entries to enable compatibility with our detection scripts.
