| − | We need to create '''a new Scout Project''' and '''switch to the Scout Perspective'''. When we're done we can run the server, verify that it is running using a web browser, and we can run the client using either the Swing or the SWT user interface.

| − | The client will not yet contain anything, but this will demonstrate that our infrastructure is working. | + | |

| − | {{tip|New Workspace|Make sure you start with a new workspace. An Eclipse Scout project usually consists of multiple plugin projects and it may be convenient to have separate workspaces for each Scout project. This is not strictly necessary, however, as the Scout SDK easily manages multiple Scout projects within the same workspace.}}

| − | {{note|Project Name, Project Alias|The project name will be used for all the '''plugins''' created. They'll get names like <tt>eclipse.org.minicrm.client</tt> and <tt>eclipse.org.minicrm.server</tt>. The project alias will be used for the '''servlet''' running on the server. Once you started the server you'll be able to contact it at <tt><nowiki>http://localhost:8080/minicrm</nowiki></tt>. Thus, the alias will be '''visible to the outside world'''.}}

| − | If you expand the project tree it will have nodes for ''client'', ''shared'' and ''server'' as well as nodes for the two user interfaces, ''ui.swing'' and ''ui.swt''.

| − | {{warning|Issues with Mac OS 10.6 and Swing Client|If you try to start the swing client in Mac OS 10.6, this might fail. To fix this go to the run configuration of the swing client. In the tab Arguments you have to remove <tt>-ws ${target.ws}</tt> from the program arguments and <tt>-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts</tt> from the VM arguments.}}

| − | == Start the Server ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Click on the server node. This will show two products, a ''production'' product and a ''development'' product. '''Click the green arrow''' of the development product to start it.

| − | | + | |
| − | == Test the Server ==
| + | |
| − | To test if the server is running properly, go to http://localhost:8080/minicrm/process. To log in, use '''admin''' as username and '''manager''' as password.

| − | | + | |
| − | {{warning|The page will show the stacktrace of a NullPointerException|Nevertheless, client-server communication of the application seems not to be affected. Please refer to the Bug <nowiki>https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=350606</nowiki> for the workaround and any further information.}}

| − | | + | |
| − | You should see a page providing information about the server. The login information is defined in the '''config.ini''' file of the server product. Have a look: click on the <u>open config.ini</u> link. Note the BasicSecurityFilter settings.

| + | |
| − | Click on either the ''ui.swing'' or the ''ui.swt'' node and start the ''development'' client product by clicking on the green arrow.

| − | {{note|A Different Language|If you want to run the client in a different language than your system's default, you might have to fiddle with the ''configuration''. From the ''Run'' menu, choose ''Debug Configurations...'' and switch to the ''Arguments'' tab. There, replace <tt>-nl ${target.nl}</tt> with <tt>-nl en_US</tt> (if you're working with a German locale and need to make screen shots for the wiki, for example). Click the ''Apply'' button and the ''Debug'' button. Eclipse will remember this setting as long as you keep reusing the Run and Debug menus (using the two green buttons in the tool bar to run products). If you use the ''Scout Object Properties'' tab, this language setting will revert to the default.}}
