Introduction

This tutorial describes how to install the CDO workspace using Buckminster.

Preparations

Download and install Eclipse 3.6 from http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads (archive)

Now open a fresh development workspace.

You need to add the following plug-ins from the Helios p2 repository (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios)

Note, that as long as helios is not fully released it is recommended to use the staging update site: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios Install the following: + EMF 2.6 SDK + Buckminster 3.6 Core + Buckminster 3.6 CVS Support + Buckminster 3.6 PDE Support

After you have installed the required plug-ins just create an empty project called "_target"

Create Target Platform

Now create an empty target platform (Windows->Preferences->Plugin Development->Target Platform)

Switch to the content tab.

Add the directory location $workspace_loc\_target and activate target platform

Activate the platform

Bootstrap the Releng project

Now you need to bootstrap the releng project.

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.emf/org.eclipse.emf.cdo/releng/org.eclipse.emf.cdo.releng/psf/pserver/_bootstrap.psf?root=Modeling_Project&view=co

Committers use: http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.emf/org.eclipse.emf.cdo/releng/org.eclipse.emf.cdo.releng/psf/extssh/_bootstrap.psf?root=Modeling_Project&view=co

Right click the Package Explorer and choose Imort->Team Project Set. Select the downloaded _bootstrap.psf

Note, if you want to work on CDO 2.0 switch the branch with Team|Switch to "R2_0_maintenance" branch (not tag!)

Import Sources

To import the sources right-click the local.mspec, select Buckminster|Import...

Go and fetch a coffee, or two, or three... Finally hit the 'Finish' button
