I tried this:

but something went wrong cause i got the following errors when i try to run a basic script

Description Resource Path Location Type

PApplet cannot be resolved MyProcessingSketch.java /TestProcessing/src line 17 Java Problem

PApplet cannot be resolved to a type MyProcessingSketch.java /TestProcessing/src line 4 Java Problem

The import processing cannot be resolved MyProcessingSketch.java /TestProcessing/src line 1 Java Problem

That site is quite outdated btw.

Then i found:

http://wiki.processing.org/w/Eclipse_Plug_In

which appears to be less outdated,

i only wonder, since installing it goes quite different, is the plug-in what i want? (i just want to code in eclipse without to much hazle).

I recently switch to eclipse and I follow this instructions without a problem, I think the cause for that error is that the compiler cannot find the core.jar library, try double checking that your paths are correct, this wiki page talks about those errors and possible fixes

Personally I prefer importing libraries instead of the plugin, and it gets even better once you create your own userlibrary so you dont have to do the path build settings on every new project

After i press finish at the end of step 3 i get this:

This is the folder, core.jar is in the lib where the tutorial is talking about (i had to create the folder but that isn't strange i suppose).

I looked at the wiki page, it isn't helping.
So i hope someone else can. I have a "unexpected token: )" in processing and i can't find it with the processing pde.

edit:
what java version must i use?

Yes, it can be hard to update the page for each new version of Eclipse.
Have you imported correctly the core.jar? You have to do Add to build path, as explained in the second article.
