I have used it for both Java web apps and embedded Linux applications. And I used straight Eclipse JDT and CDT, not a purchased plug-in. I like it a lot, but the CDT is a bit behind the JDT. I use it to develop in Linux and (if you're looking for an IDE) it's one of the best available for Linux. Another benefit is that some people on my team that worked on the web app used Windows. We both could use the OS we wanted and the same IDE. Sharing project directories and such was a breeze (same with CVS).
