here is my method.
1. check out latest source codes from trunk or download tar ball
svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/trunklucene_trunk
2. create a dynamic web project in eclipse and close it.
for example, I create a project name lucene-solr-trunk in my
workspace.
3. copy/mv the source code to this project(it's not necessary)
here is my directory structure
lili@lili-desktop:~/workspace/lucene-solr-trunk$ ls
bin.tests-framework build lucene_trunk src testindex WebContent
lucene_trunk is the top directory checked out from svn in step 1.
4. remove WebContent generated by eclipse and modify it to a soft link to
lili@lili-desktop:~/workspace/lucene-solr-trunk$ ll WebContent
lrwxrwxrwx 1 lili lili 28 2011-08-18 18:50 WebContent ->
lucene_trunk/solr/webapp/web/
5. open lucene_trunk/dev-tools/eclipse/dot.classpath. copy all lines like
kind="src" to a temp file
<classpathentry kind="src" path="lucene/core/src/java"/>
<classpathentry kind="src" path="lucene/core/src/resources"/>
....
6. replace all string like path="xxx" to path="lucene_trunk/xxx" and copy
them into .classpath file
7. mkdir WebContent/WEB-INF/lib
8. extract all jar file in dot.classpath to WebContent/WEB-INF/lib
I use this command:
lili@lili-desktop:~/workspace/lucene-solr-trunk/lucene_trunk$ cat
dev-tools/eclipse/dot.classpath |grep "kind=\"lib"|awk -F "path=\"" '{print
$2}' |awk -F "\"/>" '{print $1}' |xargs cp ../WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/
9. open this project and refresh it.
if everything is ok, it will compile all java files successfully. if
there is something wrong, Probably we don't use the correct jar. because
there are many versions of the same library.
10. right click the project -> debug As -> debug on Server
it will fail because no solr home is specified.
11. right click the project -> debug As -> debug Configuration -> Arguments
Tab -> VM arguments
add
-Dsolr.solr.home=/home/lili/workspace/lucene-solr-trunk/lucene_trunk/solr/example/solr
you can also add other vm arguments like -Xmx1g here.
12. all fine, add a break point at SolrDispatchFilter.doFilter(). all solr
request comes here
13. have fun~
