Requirements

System Requirements (non-Eclipse)

• System with at least 1GB of RAM
• Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.6 or higher
• Relational Database such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, or Derby.
  See instructions for installing 'Supported Databases' to complete this step.

Eclipse Dependencies

1. An Eclipse 3.4.1 base with the following features installed
   you can which featuers are already installed from Help -> About Eclipse Platform ->Feature Details
   • org.eclipse.gef and org.eclipse.draw2d
   • org.eclipse.datatools.connectivit.oda.feature and org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.oda.feature
   • org.eclipse.birt.chart.runtime
   The easiest solution is the Ganymede Eclipse install Eclipse IDE for Java and Report Developers since it provides the above Eclipse dependencies.
   Unzip the contents of this zip file into a (short) path on you computer to create your Eclipse base.
2. OSEE add-ons - Visit external site under the section "Add-On Features"
   From the Eclipse base installed in the previous step, launch the update manager and install the add-ins archived update site (no need to unzip it). For more detail, see step-by-step 'Update Manager Instructions'.
   
   Note: To use OSEE with a database other than Derby, you will need the JDBC Drivers included in the OSEE add-ons distributed from the external location. Such a scheme of distribution is caused by licensing requirements.
