If you are experimenting with Lua Development Tools source code, you'll certainly be interested in building it by yourself.
Checking out the source code
- Clone the repository
git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/koneki/org.eclipse.koneki.ldt.git
Building the source code
- Verify that you have installed Maven 3 properly on your system. See http://maven.apache.org/download.html to get it if you don't have it already.
- Use your terminal of choice to
cdinto the root folder of the LDT source tree you've cloned earlier. - Run
mvn clean package -P build-product- It is possible to build against an older Eclipse platform. As instance, if you want to build with Indigo, run:
mvn clean package -P build-product,platform-indigo
- It is possible to build against an older Eclipse platform. As instance, if you want to build with Indigo, run:
