Installation Alternatives
Installation of Stardust is performed by installing the corresponding Stardust Features and their required dependencies. These Eclipse Features include the
- Process Modeller,
- the Rapid Application Development (RAD) environment and the
- Report Designer Extension.
You have several options to add the Stardust - Eclipse Process Manager Features and their dependencies to your Eclipse environment:
- Online Eclipse update site - This is a good choice if you:
- don't know what to choose
- have a reliable, fast internet connection
- only want to install on a single PC / environment
- want to check for updates frequently and intend to update to the latest and greatest version frequently
- Local Eclipse update site - This is a good choice if you:
- have a not so fast and reliable internet connection
- have an internet connection with high latency / response times
- want to install on multiple PCs / environments
- are going to check for updates less frequently or not via the built-in update mechanism
- may not always upgrade to the latest patch release
- Install features as drop-ins - This is a good choice if you:
- know what you are doing
- are sure that you have the right Eclipse version with all required dependencies installed
- are familiar enough with the eclipse plug-in mechanism and know how to install missing dependencies if needed
- rather perform some steps in the file system than walk through the dialogs of the (local) Eclipse update site installation
- want to separate the new features from you Eclipse installation on file system level
- want to automate the installation for multiple environments
To get an installable version of Stardust - Eclipse Process Manager you have two options
