How to download source code for NetBeans and Eclipse?
 

I am a newbie on Java. I think im lucky to find this site.
I am doing a technical presentation and my title is to present about IDE on Java. I have researched on some of the IDEs for Java such as Eclipse, NetBeans, JBuilder,Jcreator.
My presentations would be on Eclipse and Netbeans. I downloaded the software. But i need to download the source code of the IDE.
Where and how can i get that? Anyone can show me the way??

What's the point of downloading the source code? you aren't going to present an extension to the IDEs are you?

The source code for any of those projects will be mammoths if you are new to Java and/or have no software engineering project experience.

You are probably looking for source code examples so you can explore Netbeans IDE.

seems to be a new hobby, creating forum account, reviving useless ancient threads (usually with nonsense information), and disappearing.

I've been seeing it a lot lately both here and elsewhere.
