− | There are two excellent resources explaining graphically what is required to setup Eclipse:
| + | Moved to [http://wiki.idempiere.org/en/Setting_up_Eclipse http://wiki.idempiere.org/en/Setting_up_Eclipse] |
− | * From Heng Sin Low (the originator of OSGi Adempiere movement): http://kenai.com/projects/hengsin/pages/Building
| |
− | * From Dominik Zajac: http://www.banym.de/eclipse/build-the-idempiere-project-using-eclipse-with-buckminster
| |
− | | |
− | I'll try to explain here also step by step what is required to let eclipse compile and run iDempiere:
| |
− | | |
− | == Initial steps ==
| |
− | | |
− | To avoid eclipse complaining about some empty directories not found on the mercurial repository is recommended to create before these two folders:
| |
− | | |
− | cd $IDEMPIERE_REPOSITORY
| |
− | mkdir targetPlatform
| |
− | mkdir org.adempiere.ui.zk/WEB-INF/classes
| |
− | | |
− | Replace $IDEMPIERE_REPOSITORY with the clone folder where you want to work (be the clone of bitbucket, or the experimental mentioned in the [[IDempiere/Download_the_Code|Download]] page
| |
− | | |
− | == Configuring Target Platform ==
| |
− | | |
− | * Open the eclipse you configured following the instructions from [[IDempiere/Install_Prerequisites_on_Ubuntu|Prerequisites]] page
| |
− | * Navigate to File > Switch Workspace > Other
| |
− | * On the dialog open fill the workspace with the folder where you cloned the code, named above as $IDEMPIERE_REPOSITORY, i.e. /home/carlos/sources/myexperiment)
| |
− | * After the eclipse open again navigate to Window > Preferences > Plug-in Development > Target Platform
| |
− | * Push the "Add" button
| |
− | * Select "Nothing: Start with an empty target definition" and click Next
| |
− | * Fill the Name with: Adempiere Target Platform
| |
− | * Push the "Add" button
| |
− | * Select "Directory" and click Next
| |
− | * Fill Location with "${workspace_loc}/targetPlatform"
| |
− | * "Finish" button
| |
− | * Make the just created platform "Adempiere Target Platform" active and push the "OK" button
| |
− | | |
− | == Materializing iDempiere project within Eclipse ==
| |
− | | |
− | Now is time to materialize the project, you must be connected to the internet for this stage:
| |
− | | |
− | * Navigate to File > Import > Buckminster > Materialize from Buckminster MSPEC, CQUERY or BOM
| |
− | * Push the "Next" button
| |
− | * Fill the "Enter a URL ..." box with this folder $IDEMPIERE_REPOSITORY/org.adempiere.sdk-feature/adempiere.cquery
| |
− | ** You MUST replace the $IDEMPIERE_REPOSITORY with the corresponding folder name
| |
− | ** Or even better you can use the "Browse" button to navigate there and select the adempiere.cquery file
| |
− | * Here eclipse takes some time to review dependencies and after that you can push the "Finish" button
| |
− | | |
− | Now is a good time to make a coffee (better Colombian coffee) - Eclipse will download and configure the whole project and this can be time consuming.
| |
− | | |
− | When this step finishes is recommended to close eclipse and take a backup of the $IDEMPIERE_REPOSITORY folder, in case something mess later you can restore the backup and you won't need to download again the whole thing from internet.
