[edit] Setting up Eclipse for Kalypso
Kalypso is a java application being developed with Eclipse. This article describes how to set up eclipse in order to start developing with Kalypso.
[edit] Installation of Java and Eclipse
Download and install the current versions of
Tip: The installation path of eclipse should not contain any white-space ' ', else some of the ant-scripts used to compile Kalypso will get into trouble.
[edit] Starting Eclipse
We recommend the following command-line options when starting eclipse:
- -vm <path to your java 6 sdk>/bin/javaw.exe (required)
- Kalypso MUST be started with the Java Developer Kit (JDK) (NOT the Runtime Edition (JRE)), else some of the ant-code generation will not work properly
- -data <path to workspace directory> (optional)
- use a distinquished workspace directory for your Kalypso sources
- -vmargs -Xmx1024m
- Kalypso is quite big, give eclipse enough memory to handle all this stuff
[edit] Configure Eclipse
In order to be able to compile Kalypso, Eclipse should be configured as follows:
[edit] Additionally required Eclipse-Plug-ins
| Name | Remark | Use | Source / Update Site | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Subversive SVN Team Provider | Required to fetch Kalypso sources | Optional | Juno Update Site | |
| Mylyn Team Support | For easy access to Kalypso Trac(s) | Optional | Juno Update Site | |
| Eclipse XML Editors and Tools | Required | Juno Update Site | ||
| Babel Language Packs | Kalypso depends on Babel - Required packs: 'eclipse', xxx? | Required | http://download.eclipse.org/technology/babel/update-site/R0.11.0/juno/ | |
| KalypsoDevelopTools | Helper for exporting/importing i10n property files to and from excel | Optional | http://dev.bjoernsen.de/updatesites/KalypsoDevelopTools/ | |
| NatTable | Kalypso depends on NatTable | Required | http://download.eclipse.org/nattable/releases/1.0.1/repository/ | |
| NSIS | Eclipse NSIS - Setup Tool | Optional | http://eclipsensis.sf.net/update | |
| UOMo | Eclipse UOMo - | Required | http://download.eclipse.org/uomo/0.6/repository/ |
Note: Features Kalypso has real dependencies on (i.e. are required to compile Kalypso) are marked as 'required'.
[edit] workspace_loc (required)
In order make the ant-scripts compiling parts of kalpyso work, the ant-property
workspace = ${workspace_loc}
must be defined via
- Menu: Window->Preferences...
- Page Ant/Runtime
- Tab Properties
- Button:Add Property...
- Tab Properties
- Page Ant/Runtime
Linux: before getting the sources, set the workspace encoding of eclipse to ISO-8859-1:
- Menu: Window->Preferences...
- Page General/Workspace
- Text File Exncoding:Other ISO-8859-1
- Page General/Workspace
[edit] ManualJRE (optional)
In order to build the DocBook manuals of Kalypso, a 1.4.2 JRE named 'ManualJRE' must be defined under
- Menu Window->Preferences...
- Page: Java/Installed JREs
- Button Add...
- Page: Java/Installed JREs
[edit] Network connections (optional)
Do not forget to configure your network connections via
- Menu: Window->Preferences...
- Page General/Network connection
in order to use the help system or install additional eclipse features.
[edit] XML-Files (optional)
Define Kalypso specific file extensions as xml content via
- Menu: Window preferences...
- Page: Generel/Content types
- Entry: XML
- Page: Generel/Content types
Add the following extensions:
- .gml
- .gft
- .gmt
- .gtt
- .ott
- .odt
- .kod
- .sld
- .ort
- _others_?
You should do this right now, as changing anything here later will result in a complete rebuild of Kalypso.
