Thinking of switching to a Linux dev. environment, wanted to see what this sub thought.
Using wget for eclipse Java
command is :
wget http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.eclipse.org/eclipseMirror/technology/epp/downloads/release/2022-03/202203101200/eclipse-java-2022-03-R-linux-gtk-aarch64.tar.gz
You can change the release of eclipse in the URI. See this link for more information. I hope that's useful for you.
Any URL which includes download.php will have this problem with wget, even the so called "Direct Link".
With more recent download pages however, there is a way to find the actual URLs, and that's to look inside the xml file that download.php uses for mirror selection.
For example, if we go to the Eclipse IDE 2020-03 page, most of the URLs are download.php links, but in the "Other options for this file" side bar, we can see an xml link.
If we navigate there with our web browser and then look at the page source, we can see the actual file URL used by every mirror. Depending on the Web Browser used, the page may be blank, in which case we need to look at the Page Source to see the raw xml and thus the URLs.
For me, in the UK, the UK mirror service site would be my best option:
<mirror url="http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.eclipse.org/eclipseMirror/oomph/epp/2020-03/R/eclipse-inst-win64.exe" label="[United Kingdom] UK Mirror Service (http)" />
These (actually) direct URLs do work with wget.
