Instead of NetBeans, you can also use the Eclipse IDE to build org.lcsim and write your applications.

Note
titleSource Path

You may have to change the source path of the project, otherwise Java may be inclined to look for packages src.org.lcsim.* instead of org.lcsim.*. This can be done by right-clicking on the project and selecting Properties->Java Build Path. The src/ folder should be selected as the only source folder.

  1. Checkout GeomConverter and org.lcsim.In each project directory, execute this (Unix/Linux) command: No Formatln -s pom2.xml pom.xml
  2. Build GeomConverter, first, and then org.lcsim with the mvn command. (This ensures that all the lcsim dependencies are built/downloaded before we start messing with Eclipse.)
  3. If either build complains about missing lcsim-base, then checkout that project from SLAC CVS and build it, too.

  1. Get an appropriate Eclipse Europa build. (I am using Eclipse 3.3.1.1 on OSX with Java 1.5.)
  2. Unpack and install the Eclipse build and open Eclipse by double-clicking on its icon. (In OSX, this is eclipse.app.)
  3. Go to Help -> Software Updates -> Look for new features to install. Click Next.
  4. Click New Remote Site.
  5. Put "q4e" in the name field and use this URL:
    No Format
    http://q4e.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/updatesite/
    .
  6. Click through the rest of the q4e install and agree with all the EULAs.

Info

You can quickly build Maven 2 projects from within eclipse by executing the install goal with maven.test.skip set to true. This should rebuild the JAR files if you have made changes.
