Re: What
That page is simply to tell Eclipse what JREs are available for running your apps.
Since those are only used for execution then all that is needed is a JRE.
Assuming the JRE version and the JDK version are the same then it makes no difference.Please do not ask for code as refusal often offends.

Re: What
You can only compile with a JDK.
But that page is not about compiling, it is about executing.
I usually point it to the JDK since then I know I'm compiling and running using the same version of Java.Please do not ask for code as refusal often offends.
