Re: [actf-dev] Validation Rules in Java
|
Hi Yeliz,
aDesigner is an example tool that uses several ACTF components. So, you
need to checkout not only examples.adesigner but also other plugins. Here
is the instruction for creating your workspace for aDesigner.
http://www.eclipse.org/actf/downloads/tools/aDesigner/build.php
Current version of aDesigner supports WCAG 1.0, Section 508 and JIS
(Japanese Web accessibility guideline). Most of check logic are in the
org.eclipse.actf.examples.adesigner.eval.html plugin. So, you can start
from this plugin.
As for the time out issue, ssh connection is sometimes blocked at the
Firewall.
Would you please try to use proxy.eclipse.org (port 443) for extssh
connection?
The detailed instruction is available at the CVS howto page below.
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/CVS_Howto#extssh_CVS_Setup_using_a_Firewall
If you can connect by using port 443, I'll create the psf file for this
setting and upload it to instruction page.
If you can't connect to the server by using both of default port (22) and
port 443, we need to ask Eclipse WebMaster about this. In this case, I'll
provide additional instructions.
Best regards,
Kentarou
