Re: Eclipse Development

First, I forgot to say that mirroring the download is ok.

I've moved the subversion to SourceForge, and the jar file for what I posted earlier is in the downloads section on the project page.

If you want commit access, you will need a SourceForge ID. Please send that to me and I will add you to the project.

In order to develop the plugins, you will need:
  • Eclipse SDK 3.2+
  • Eclipse CDT SDK
  • Subclipse (use the instuctions for Callisto)
  • PyDev (only needed if you want to work on the wrapper scripts)

Note that if you just installed PyDev, you need to go to the preferences and configure your interpreters.

Instructions on loading the projects:
  1. Go to File > New > Project...
  2. Select SVN > Checkout Projects from SVN. Hit Next.
  3. Select Create a new repository location. Hit Next.
  4. Enter https://firstclipse.svn.sourceforge....ot/firstclipse as the URL. Hit Next.
  5. Accept the SSL fingerprint (I recomend permanently)
  6. When asked for the folder, select everything under trunk (except for mcc-wrapper if you're not dealing with the Python stuff).
  7. Hit Finish.
  8. Wait. It will probably take awhile. Grab another dew. Brew some coffee. Think about how awesome this will be when done.

When all is said and done, you should have 6 plugins, 1 site, 1 feature patch, and maybe 1 other project (mcc-wrapper).

Almost all of it is just framework. Hardly any real code.

Notes:
  • This is the bleeding edge. It may not always work or even compile.
  • I recomend setting your workspace to UTF-8, but this is not required.
  • Please use the Java 1.4 compiler.
