Hi,

I'm trying to build e(fx)clipse form sources so i can contribute p2 functionality
for this project as eclipse SWT render do but i couldn't make it.
Can anyone please show some instructions?
Starting from which git repository to clone org.eclipse.efxclipse.git or efxclipse.git etc...
I'm working with eclipse kepler.

Thank you!

Hi,

Not sure what you mean by p2 functionality? Do you want to contribute
source code to e(fx)clipse project? What p2 stuff do the SWT-Renderer have?

So what part of efxclipse do you want to build the tooling or the runtime?

Generally speaking the process is:
a) clone http://git.eclipse.org/c/efxclipse/org.eclipse.efxclipse.git/
b) import the projects under "bundles/runtime/" to your eclipse

If you have e(fx)clipse installed in your Host-IDE things should resolve
without problems.

if you want to build it on the command line you can execute the
releng/org.eclipse.fx.releng/pom.xml

Hi,
Eclipse standard release has p2 functionality like install new software,uninstall,update but the p2 functionality has dependency from org.eclipse.ui(from eclipse 3.x).
I just made eclipse p2 work in eclipse 4 without dependency from org.eclipse.ui(install,uninstall,update).That is a working demo for vaaclipse.
I like your work with java-fx render and i want to contribute this(install new software,update,uninstall) to e(fx)clipse project.
But first i needed to build the project from sources.
That is pretty much what i meant to do.

Thank You!

You need jdk 8 to get rid of those errors.
