Re: Compiling Ptolemy with Eclipse

[Franck Valentin]

Thanks for your help,  I also tried the method described but I can not
get the project compiled, here is what I tried :

tar xfz ptII3.0.2.src.tar.gz
mv ptII3.0.2 ptII

export PTII="/home/franck/bin/my_PTII/ptII"
cd $PTII
./configure


cd ~/bin/my_PTII
eclipse&

   File->New Project
   Project Name : ptII
   Directory    : /home/franck/bin/my_PTII
   Finish

-->> An error occured while creating the java project
     Reason  : invalid project description
 /home/franck/bin/my_PTII and /home/franck/bin/my_PTII/workspace overlap


If I change the directory with : /home/franck/bin/my_PTII/ptII

-->> An error occurred while creating the java project
     See error log for more details.
     (java.lang.NullPointerException in the .log of Eclipse !)


I tried other thinks but I can only compile and run (make fast install)
without Eclipse !
