General information

Java Version

To be able to use the OS.bee Softwarefactory you need to install the right Java version.

On Windows, this is Java JDK 8 64bit Java SE Downloads.

In case you need to use several Java versions on your system, see additional information in [#InstalltheOS.Additional Information Java versions]

Eclipse Version

To be able to use the OS.bee Softwarefactory you need to start with the right Eclipse version. You can use this one Eclipse Luna DSL Developers SR2. Download and extract it to a place you like.

Installation of the Softwarefactory

Install the OS.bee Softwarefactory

before you start

The following change in the {{{eclipse.ini}}} might help to avoid timeout problems with servers that respond slowly.

{{{ -Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.closeTimeout=3000 -Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.readTimeout=3000 }}}

A resulting {{{eclipse.ini}}} for a Windows installation might look like: {{{ -startup plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20140415-2008.jar --launcher.library plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.200.v20150204-1316 -product org.eclipse.epp.package.dsl.product --launcher.defaultAction openFile --launcher.XXMaxPermSize 256M -showsplash org.eclipse.platform --launcher.XXMaxPermSize 256m --launcher.defaultAction openFile --launcher.appendVmargs -vmargs -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6 -Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.closeTimeout=3000 -Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.readTimeout=3000 -Xms128m -Xmx1024m }}}

Links to the repositories

- the public P2 is available under [1]

 or with [2] as the internal link to the same repository

- the master build is available under [3]

 or with [4] as the internal link to the same repository. It contains the release candidate and is more stable than daily or latest. Best for internal use to produce the videos etc. because it does not change on a daily base. It will change only after a significant improvement.

- or the daily build [5] from inside

 or [6] from outside the Compex network. The P2 for the developers. Contains the last successful build of the daily branch. The daily branch is updated automatically from the development branch after a successful build (not test) of the development branch.

- for the development build use latest [7]. This is for the one who wants to or has to be at the top ...

Installation

- Start the new Eclipse installation and select or define a workspace. Here too, it is important that each Eclipse installation is assigned its own workspace.

- You will then be prompted to restart Eclipse. Please do so!

Set Targetplatform for the OS.bee Softwarefactory EE

- Check the workspace you are using (see section [wiki:OsbeeInstallSWF#Installation Installation] above) - is it the one you want to use for the further processing? If not, open the right one.

 You can add the parameter {{{-data <path/to/workspace}}} to a shortcut you use to start Eclipse. This will help using the right workspace in the future. It also removes the question about the workspace on Eclipse startup. 

- Then set the targetplatform here: Menu -> Window -> Preferences -> Plug-in Development -> Target Platform

 and uncheck the include required software checkbox.

  javax.servlet    version 3.1  (may not be present)
 }}}
