[platform-ui-dev] Development environment setup?

[Marcus Crafter <crafterm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

Hope all is going well.

Ok, I've got a silly question, but I can't seem to find the right info.

I'd like to do some more development on Eclipse ui.ide itself, however 
I'm not sure how I can get my development environment set up properly to 
get moving.

When I did some R3.0 work, in a fresh workspace I imported the 3.0 code 
as external plugins/fragments, deleted the ui.ide project, and then 
checked it out again from dev.eclipse.org using the R3.0 tag.

This all worked fine, I could modify the code, generate diffs, etc, run 
the plugin in a runtime workbench, etc.

However, currently this approach doesn't seem to work anymore - or at 
least I can get it to work because there doesn't seem to be any 3.1M-x 
tags? and I'm not sure what to run what with what.

Currently, I've got 3.1M3 on my system, have imported all external 
plugins/fragments, deleted the ui.ide project, and checked it out from 
HEAD but it doesn't seem to build with 3.1M3, due to repliance on 
changes from another plugin (core.resources)

I guess I'm just wondering how everyone on the list has their dev 
environment set up, and how they work with the different plugins/code?

Cheers,

Marcus
