And when I tried to keep both I found some of faculty said to not keeping both. I don't know what to do? Please Kindly help me?

When I open eclipse Now It is showing:
"You are not running your eclipse instance with Java7 or Java8. The JavaFX tooling is disabled because of this.Make Java7/8 the default system java or adjust your eclipse.ini to pass -vm pointing to your Java7/8 install."

You can try to manually change the Java library for a specific project.

Right click on the project folder, then go to:

properties->Java Build Path->Libraries->Add Library

and there add the Java 7 library.

If this doesn't work or you don't see the Java 7 library you might need to add some environment variables (e.g. JAVA_HOME)
