I installed eclipse in my home directory, and put its path in PATH in ~/.profile.

So it works by

$ eclipse

But when call it with sudo, eclipse isn't found:

$ sudo eclipse 
sudo: eclipse: command not found

Which PATH isdoes sudo eclipse useduse to search for eclipse? Is it the user root's PATH?

Thanks.
