Why the Java perspective hasn't installed automatically on Eclipse Win Millenium?

The question from the newbie:
I have installed the Eclipse once on Win 2000 prof and once on the Win
Millenium. By the Eclipse I mean eclipse-platform-2.0.1-win32 and
eclipse-SDK-2.01-win32.
Only on the Win Prof I got the Java perspective and I can open a Java
project.
On Win Millenium I can only open project simple.
What I did wrong? What shall I do to have Java perspective?

I think that JDT is missing from your installation.

The eclipse-SDK includes eclipse platform and JDT, which is the java
"plugin" for the eclipse. If you have installed only the contents of
eclipse-platform-2.0.1-win32, then you need to download and install
(copy in the same folder as eclipse-platform) the JDT.

Thanks! I will try.

Another quesion: I am used to gdb and wdb. When I open the Debug
perspective I cannot find the buttons I know (and like): Step in, step
over, step out. Frankly, I don't know how ro operate Eclipse debug.
Where to find those user friendly commands?

On the Run menu, and in the caption of the Debug frame/window
Shift F5, F5, F6 & F7
