Hi, Everyone: Now I am learning about codes of the CS. I do some steps follow the official documents——development101,but when I configure eclipse according to the document——Using Eclipse With CloudStack( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Using+Eclipse+With+CloudStack). In the following chapter,I have some questions.
Q1:I have used eclipse to download CS4.2 source, and I import these projects into eclipse. There are many projects, e.g. cloud-agent. cloud-api .cloud-core and so on. Should I do these steps that are marked with underlying(Q1) in the following? Q2: In the following Q2(which is also marked with underlying),I don't understand it means,so that I don't know how to do with the parent projects. Can you explain it to me? Well , Chapter : Eliminate duplicate resources CloudStack has a lot of projects that are really just for grouping the different type of projects. The problem is in Eclipse, the files that belong in sub-projects also show up in the projects. This causes a lot of problems with the Open Resource dialogue, which is often used to quickly get to a file if you know the filename already. These problems include the multiple copies of the same .class files showing up and multiple copies of the same .java file showing up. If you select the wrong .java file, then a lot of the references doesn't work. Upon further inspection, the reason is because the same .java and .class file is included by both the project and the parent project. To get rid of this problem, do the following. Unfortunately, (Q1)*you have to do this for every parent project.* - *Right click on the project and select Properties.(Q1)* - *Go to Resource->Resource Filters.* - *Click on Add...* - *Select Exclude all* - *Select Folders* - *Click Regular Expression* - *In the entry box, type [a-zA-Z0-9].** - *Click OK* - *Click OK* What this does is to tell Eclipse that the sub-directories under parent projects should not be included in the resource list, thus avoiding the the duplicate resources in the Open Resource dialogue box. *(Q2) If the parent project does have a directory that you want, then you can add that to a include filter.* Note that you can not use * as the folders because that would exclude the .settings folder which eclipse uses to keep its metadata and will cause the m2e plugin to have problems. Here's a list of parent projects you should do this with: - cloudstack - cloud-services - cloudstack-framework - cloud-engine - cloudstack-plugins
