Isn't it "jogl.all.jar" that the tutorial on the wiki page should be referencing? This is how I got it to work in Eclipse on my 64 bit Windows system:

I loosely follow the tutorial in http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Setting_up_a_JogAmp_project_in_your_favorite_IDE but:
1. I add jogl.all.jar, jogl-all-natives-windows-amd64.jar, gluegen-rt.jar, gluegen-rt-natives-windows-amd64.jar, which I get from http://jogamp.org/deployment/archive/rc/v2.0-rc5/jar/ to the folder "JOGL" located in my Eclipse workspace.
2. I add jogl-java-src.zip, gluegen-java-src.zip, which I get from http://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-current/archive/jogamp-all-platforms.7z
3. I follow the tutorial with respect to how to create the "JOGL" java project and set up jogl.all.jar and gluegen-rt.jar (linking them to the zip files etc.) etc.
4. I link the java project I'm working in (in this case, the triangle project) to the "JOGL" java project in the build path.

But of course, you know better what is correct and how to clarify the tutorial. Thanks for your response!
