Installing

... will be available once the NetIDE update site is online

Building

Check out the maven branch, navigate to the folder releng/eu.netide.parent and type mvn package. The build process can take some time.

Once it has finished, you'll find the contents of an eclipse update site as a zip file in releng/eu.netide.product/target.

Open your Eclipse Luna installation, go to Help->Install New Software->Add->Archive and specify the location of the zip file.

Select NetIDE from the list and follow the instructions. After restarting Eclipse, NetIDE is ready to run.

Contributing

Follow the steps in the Readme file to check out the plugin code.

If you like to contribute to the project, please notice the following:

  • We have three maintained branches:

  • master: Contains the latest stable version and is only updated on a new release

  • development: The latest and greatest. New features are merged in here.

  • maven: Regularly pulls from the development branch. Maven metadata for plugins which contribute to the nightly builds is added here.

  • Please use Feature branches. Create a new branch for each feature and each bug fix and, when deemed mature, create a pull request to the development branch.

  • .project and .classpath files as well as .settings folders have to be uploaded as well since they provide vital information for importing and building plugins.
