Required Eclipse Features
You will need the following Eclipse features to build and launch Prequips:
- Eclipse Project SDK 3.1.2 (download from http://www.eclipse.org or a mirror site)
- EMF SDK 2.1.2 (update site: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/emf/updates/site.xml)
- Subclipse to access the Subversion repository (update site: http://subclipse.tigris.org/update/site.xml)
Getting the Eclipse Project SDK
Go to http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index_project.php and select "Platform" under "Eclipse Project". On the next page select build "3.1.2" as of January 18th, 2006. Then select the *.zip or *.tar.gz archive for your platform. Once Eclipse Project 3.2.x becomes available we will test it and post instructions on how to use it to build Prequips. Until then it is not recommended to build Prequips with any releases from the 3.2.x branch.
Download the archive and extract it into a directory of your choice. Your Eclipse installation can live within that directory and there's no need to have administrator privileges to set up the software.
Installing Features From Within Eclipse
Once you have downloaded and set up the Eclipse Project SDK you can use the Eclipse Update Manager to add the other features. Simply go to "Help > Software Updates > Find and Install ...". Select "Search for new features to install" and then select "New Remote Site ...". Enter a name and the corresponding update site URLs. Then select the latest version of the feature and install.
Subversion Repository
Prequips source code can be retrieved from the Subversion repository located at http://db.systemsbiology.net/svn/ngehlenb. To browse the repository comfortably use http://db.systemsbiology.net/cgi-bin/ngehlenb-cgi/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi.
