Newbee - .gitignore is broken [message #1797311]

Hi There,

I've build Eclipse SmartHome for the first time using the easy instructions on github. But after building I have more then 700 modified and untracked files. Obviously something went wrong, but I have no idea what.
I've checked out the master and using macOS Mojave as build environment.

Hi Chris,

Are you sure that you have performed steps 8 and 9 of https://www.eclipse.org/smarthome/documentation/development/ide.html?
If so, try to open the file "smarthome.target" in the Eclipse editor and see if it manages to resolve the target platform correctly (this is what the IDE compiles again).

Regards,
Kai

Hi Kai,

No I haven't. I've checked out https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome and followed the steps there. Are they outdated? I only wan't to enhance the extensions a little bit and if I can avoid it don't want to Use Eclipse IDE.

Best regards
Chris

https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome only speaks about the headless Maven build, which should work flawlessly as well.
I am not completely sure whether the Maven build leaves the repo in a completely clean state or if there are any untracked changes afterwards - if so, they can be ignored/reset. Simply only commit the changes that you have done.

Because mvn build failes even with skipping the tests es described in the readme, I've decided to install the IDE like you mentioned before. But even this won't work because of 466 Errors that are red even after Step 9.

I've added a screenshot of the errors. They seems to be all Xtend based.

Looks indeed as if steps 8+9 have not been successfully executed.
Step 8 launches a longer running background task. Please check wether this completed successfully or if it logged any errors (click on the little rotating blue/yellow arrows in the IDE footer (with the tooltip "Eclipse Updater") to see the progress in detai).

I've found the problem: You have to set Java Version twice. Maybe you could update Step 3 and 5 with the hint "Check, that Java Version is 1.8". Probably you have to change only the Version in Step 5, but I didn't check this.
