To everyone who is using a trunk version of IvyDE, I have introduced a build
system so you will be able to build it yourself (IVYDE-88). The build system
is based on the Eclipse one, so in order to build IvyDE you must have a
Eclipse installation (I have tested with Eclipse 3.2 and 3.3). And further
more you need to have an Ivy 2 bundle installed in the Eclipse installation.
Basically to install Ivy 2 into Eclipse, get somehow the Ivy jar that you want
to use (by building it yourself of getting it from the download page). And
then copy it into the plugins directory. So do something like:
cp ivy.jar ...../eclipse/plugins/org.apache.ivy_2.0.0.jar
Note that the layout changed under ivyde/trunk. Now the main plugin sources
are under the directory org.apache.ivyde.eclipse.
So to build IvyDE:
- go into your working copy of the trunk: cd ..../ivyde/trunk
- run: ant build -DbaseLocation=......./tools/eclipse
The baseLocation property is mandatory: it defines the path of you Eclipse
install you want to build with.
Then in the created directory "work" you will find a timestamped directory
(something like 200804171513) in which you will find the zip archive ready to
be unzip in a Eclipse install.

Then I have some general questions.
I have changed the svn repsoitory layout. Everything which was under
ivyde/trunk is now under ivyde/trunk/org.apache.ivyde.eclipse. So the
CHANGES.txt is there. Shouldn't it be moved to the upper directory ?
under /ivyde/trunk ?
There is also LICENSE.txt. But I think it should stay there, shouldn't it ?
And there is the doc directory which contains the site documentation. I think
it could also be moved. WDYT ?
This is an introduction mail to the IvyDE build, but we mostly need a
documentation in the web site. So I would like to add a page and also make
the IvyDE website have a similar hierarchy to the Ivy one. So we would have
a "Documentation" and "Get involved" categories.
Currently there is
* Home
o Editor
o Classpath Container
o Use with maven poms
* Download
* Issue Tracking
So it would become:
* Home
* Download
* Documentation
o Editor
o Classpath Container
o Use with maven poms
* Get Involved
o Issue Tracking
o Building
WDYT ?
And finally I have a xooki question. First is there any documentation about
xooki apart from these pages ?
http://xooki.sourceforge.net/
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/write-doc.html
And how do I add a main category ? Should I edit directly the json ?
cheers,
Nicolas
