This file is an attempt to consolidate available information on setting up, building,
|
||
and packaging RomRaider. All instructions assume the use of Eclipse for development.
|
||
|
||
----------------------------------------------
|
||
Setting up the project (from romraider.com)
|
||
|
||
As an open source project, RomRaider depends on Java developers like you for
|
||
enhancements, bug fixes and general maintenance. This page is meant to be a
|
||
guide to setting up a development environment from scratch. The guide was
|
||
originally written by Tgui in this thread and has been adapted and revised.
|
||
|
||
RomRaider’s official IDE is Eclipse. You are free to use any Java IDE you
|
||
choose, but due to the extremely simple process of setting up the environment
|
||
and the power of Eclipse, it’s probably your best choice.
|
||
|
||
* Installing Eclipse and Subclipse
|
||
o Install the latest version of the Java Development Kit
|
||
o Get and Install Eclipse for your platform
|
||
o Install Subclipse for Subversion (SVN) integration, following the
|
||
steps outlined here.
|
||
* Setting up the RomRaider project
|
||
o Open the Java perspective in Eclipse by clicking
|
||
Window > Open Perspective > Java
|
||
o Right click in the package explorer and select “Import…”
|
||
o Select “Checkout Projects from SVN” and click “Next”
|
||
o Select “Use a new repository location:” and click “Next”
|
||
o Enter “http://svn.romraider.com/enginuity” and click “Next”
|
||
o Highlight “trunk” in the folder tree and click “Next”
|
||
o Name the project “enginuity” and click “Finish”
|
||
|
||
Now all you have to do is add the Jars within your libs dir to the project
|
||
java build path. You should read this.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
----------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
Notes on the above:
|
||
|
||
1) Make sure the build path for the Java builder is set correctly. On the top menu:
|
||
|
||
Project -> Properties -> Java Build Path
|
||
|
||
On the Source tab, the default output folder should be set to
|
||
|
||
enginuity/build/classes
|
||
|
||
2) The jars in the java build path mentioned above should be correct in the SVN
|
||
repository.
|
||
|
||
The ant build file is in the main directory and uses the default name of "build.xml".
|
||
|
||
The Java builder is set as the default. During development it's convenient to have
|
||
the "Problems" pane show warning and errors. The ant build does not send warnings
|
||
or errors there. The ant build is primarily for automation of the complete build
|
||
process for packaging.
|
||
|
||
To build using ant, right-click on the build
|
||
file in the Package Explorer (Java perspective) and select
|
||
|
||
Run As -> Ant Build
|
||
|
||
The "help" target lists available targets with a brief description of each.
