Editing ETrice/Development/GettingStartedWithEtrice

Preconditions

• get the sources ( work with GIT repository )
• download the latest version of Eclipse Modeling Tools (e.g. http://eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-modeling-tools-includes-incubating-components/indigom7)
• make sure you are using a JDK (in Eclipse: Window->Preferences->Java->Installed JREs->e.g. jdk1.6.0_24), attention: do not use jdk1.6.0_18 or jdk1.6.0_22!
• check out all projects from your local GIT clone to your Workspace (with EGit plugin)
• build eTrice with our target platform ( target platform )

Getting Started

Setting up Runtime Workspace

• start the runtime workspace: org.eclipse.etrice.core.room.ui -> eTrice-rt.launch (contextmenu -> Run As)
• check out the runtime projects from your local GIT clone
  • org.eclipse.etrice.doc.tutorials
  • org.eclipse.etrice.modellib
  • org.eclipse.etrice.runtime.java

Editing the Model

• the first model you find in org.eclipse.etrice.doc.tutorials/model/scratch/PingPong.room (doubleclick for editor)
• if the room editor has the focus, you can see all your model elements in the outline view
• with a right click on an actor (e.g. MrPingActor) you can
  • Edit Structure
  • Edit Behavior
• Important: You have to save every "dirty" editor before opening another editor

Code Generator

• org.eclipse.etrice.doc.tutorials -> genAllTutorials.mwe2.launch -> (contextmenu)Run As -> genAllModels.mwe2
• you will find the generated code in org.eclipse.etrice.doc.tutorials/src-gen
• you can see the instance tree of your actor org.eclipse.etrice.doc.tutorials/src-gen
