| Re: [orion-dev] Problem setting up eclipse dev environment [beginner] |
I could successfully do all the steps till 'Clone the client and server Git repositories into Eclipse'.Hello all,
I wish to contribute to Orion and I'm a beginner. I liked Orion and thought could play around with the code a bit. I'm trying to get the Orion sources and set up my eclipse development environment. I am following the steps from this page http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Getting_the_source.
After this, I tried setting the target definition as mentioned in the 'Specify a target to build your Orion server' sub heading. When I tried to set the target definition by opening the org.eclipse.orion.target.target file, I couldn't see any progress indicator Resolving Target Definition, as mentioned in the wiki. I looked at the 'Content' section and it's empty, I couldn't see any plugins available to be selected in the target definition. I just tried selecting 'Set as Target Platform' (just to see if it works), but it didn't work and I've some 9K odd errors in my workspace. I tried repeating the steps in new workspaces to see if that solves but with no success. Am I missing something?
Can you please guide me in setting up my eclipse workspace. Please let me know if you need any other information.N.B: I'm not sure if this is the right forum to ask such a question, if so excuse me and point me to the right one where I can have my question answered.
