Hi,
Building H2 manually is kind of... well, it's a major pain in the butt
if you don't use the built-in build script or a compiled JAR.

The following should let you get the main project compiling, but not
the extra tools, tests, or documentation building.  Let the command
line build tools & scripts do that if possible (if not, see further
below).


Subclipse settings:
Path: /h2database
Url: https://h2database.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/h2
Repository Root: https://h2database.googlecode.com/svn/trunk

You need to create the Eclipse project as a Java Project or you'll
have major problems,and tell it to "Use Existing Sources" with the
already checked-out code.  For source folders, use:
/h2/src/main  (this has all of the main project sources).

Run use the included build script and run "build download" to down
necessary libraries into /h2/ext folder (which will be created).

Add the downloaded jar files to the classpath of the project.  Compile
errors should go away now.

I just ran through this procedure, and it will compile, although it
lacks some of the extra "goodies" from /h2/src/test and /h2/src/tools
and /h2/src/docsrc.  If you need these.... uh you should probably be
using the standard build tool.

Now, none of this is really helpful if you want to *contribute* to the
project in the form of patches.

I've anyone's interested, I've got (a couple months old but
comprehensive) instructions for how to get the full H2 Database
project (including tests, etc) building under Netbeans (for its
excellent debugger and profiler).

If people are interested, I can write some up for Eclipse too.  I was
working on instructions to add to the documentation, but really you're
better off just using Thomas Mueller's custom builder and tools if
possible.  The above *should* allow you to apply checkstyle, etc to
the main codebase without too much setup.  I still haven't figured out
how to run the complete "build release / build spellcheck" and all
that goodness from within Eclipse.

Cheers,
Sam Van Oort
