What version of Eclipse have I installed?

Question

I just installed the latest Eclipse from the official download page. I chose the Eclipse IDE for Java developers. Now I would like to install Pydev, which kindly asks me to use at least version 3.6.1. I quickly go to Help-> About in Eclipse and don't see the version number that resembles 3.6.1. Instead, I get the following:

Version: Helios Service Release 1 Build id: 20100917-0705 (c) Copyright Eclipse contributors and others 2000, 2010. All rights reserved. Visit http://eclipse.org/ 

So, how do you know which actual version number is running?

Answer 1

Click Help → About Eclipse, then click the Eclipse icon for more information.

You most likely already have 3.6.1, but what could be the problem is that you have an earlier build number.

Answer 2

Helios contains Eclipse 3.6. [ Link .

Helios SR1 contains Eclipse 3.6.1 [ Ref ]
