  2. Download eclipse-3.4.1-delta-pack.zip.
  3. Unzip the archive and copy org.eclipse.equinox.executable_<version> from features into your features folder under your eclipse installation.
  4. Copy all necessary plug-ins (containing linux.x86 or win32.x86) from plugins into your plugins folder under your eclipse installation.
  5. Start that Eclipse and set up a custom target platform:
  • Unzip SMILA-xxx-.zips:
  • Copy test specific plug-ins to Smila target platform:
  • Copy org.junit_3.8.2xxx from the “plugins” folder of your eclipse installation or copy org.junit_3.8.2.v200706111738 from Smila-test-and-sample folder to your Smila installation (e.g. E:\ SMILA-incubation-win32.win32.x86/plugins).
  • Copy org.eclipse.smila.test_0.5.0.jar from Smila-test-and-sample folder to your Smila installation (e.g. E:\ SMILA-incubation-win32.win32.x86/plugins).
