if you've downloaded Eclipse from their official website, follow these steps for the installation to show the menu.


1. Move the package to /opt/ folder.


# sudo mv eclipse-SDK-4.2.1-linux-gtk.tar.gz /opt/


2. Use the command line to extract the tar.gz package.
# cd /opt/
# sudo tar xzvf eclipse-SDK-4.2.1-linux-gtk.tar.gz

3.Create a file  and  

Copy the following to the file on the  desktop



[Desktop Entry]
Name=Eclipse
Type=Application
Exec=/opt/eclipse/eclipse
Terminal=false
Icon=/opt/eclipse/icon.xpm
Comment=Integrated Development Environment
NoDisplay=false
Categories=Development;IDE
Name[en]=eclipse.desktop
Exec=env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 /opt/eclipse/eclipse





In this case you will see the Eclipse’s menu.

4.把文件名字改为eclipse.desktop。右击该文件,选择属性---->选择权限---->在执行后面选中。
5.把该文件放到eclipse 所在的文件夹中,既/opt/eclipse/下,于是出现了一个新的图标。
6.点击该图标便可以出现Java开发的环境了。在ubuntu13.10中安装eclipse ,没有菜单的解决方案_ubuntu  eclipse
