Hello everyone,
I applaud the ease of being able to download the Eclipse source code. Good
job guys! One problem now though is getting the code to run. A few
questions:
1) What and where is the "main class" that should be run to start up the
whole Eclipse application? (i.e. to get the same result as if I clicked on
the eclipse.exe to get the opening welcome screen to be able to proceed to
the workbench)
2) I checked out all the projects from CVS using the anonymous access. Do
I need more files or perhaps to restructure how they are placed into my
system to get the code to compile? (Right now, I am getting a lot of
import statements with errors saying that they cannot find the packages)
3) How am I supposed to build the project? Should I do a manual build or
allow the automatic build option to do its work? (The automatic build gave
me about 100 errors, while the manual build tried using ANT to perform the
compilation and it failed in the remoteAnt.jar.bin as can be seen below:
Buildfile: C:\Documents and Settings\2lm2\My
Documents\Eclipse_Code\org.eclipse.ant.ui\buildfiles\buildRe moteExtraJAR.xml
properties:
init:
clean:
[delete] Deleting directory C:\Documents and Settings\2lm2\My
Documents\Eclipse_Code\org.eclipse.ant.ui\temp.folder
lib/remoteAntLib.jar:
[mkdir] Created dir: C:\Documents and Settings\2lm2\My
Documents\Eclipse_Code\org.eclipse.ant.ui\temp.folder\lib\re moteAnt.jar.bin
[javac] Compiling 16 source files to C:\Documents and
Settings\2lm2\My

[javac] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[javac] ----------

BUILD FAILED

Documents\Eclipse_Code\org.eclipse.ant.ui\buildfiles\buildRe moteExtraJAR.xml:29:
Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
Total time: 984 milliseconds
4) Where is the compiler error output? Is it just the dump above? Or is
there another file that I need to consult?
I am really new to this and would appreciate any assistance in helping me
to get the code running. I am a research student at Queen's University and
would like to use Eclipse as my test project for performance analysis as a
part of my thesis.
Thanking the Eclipse community in advance!
