Installation and Running of the SCP
This is a description of how to install and run the Shared Code plug'in. It should guide you to having a working SCP demo in minutes.
Steps
Step 0
Prerequisites:
- Eclipse 3.1 or higher
- ECF 0.8 or higher
After installing Eclipse and ECF, verify that they are all available in your Eclipse environment.
Step 1
Starting ECF Local Server.
- Start a shell.
- CD to the Eclipse features directory.
- CD to org.eclipse.ecf.serverfeature_X.X.X\bin directory (X.X.X is the ecf version number).
- Run startserver.sh for OS X/Linux
- The default settings are fine for now.
Step 2
- For this demo, it's necessary to use two or more Eclipse instances. I will use only two Eclipse instance(Itacare and Trancoso).
- Make sure to use different workspaces, because this demo is on the same machine.
Click on the Run->Run, change the launcher name to "Itacare" Click on the Run->Run, change the launcher name to "Trancoso" Adjust workspace data as necessary. You need to setup different "Location" to each Eclipse instance, and each instance needs to point to the same ECF server.
Step 3
Connect SCP to ECF Local Server
- In the newly launched workbench, click the "ECF" menu item->Connect Workspace
- Choose "ECF Generic" Connection Protocol
- Type "ecftcp://localhost:3282/server" for Group ID, "user1" for nickname:
