I am following the instructions for installing the eclipse pluging in the
readme.txt file inside the tools/eclipse/plugins/org.apache.forrest
directory.
The first issue arises when I come to import the existing project into
eclipse. Instead of just the plugin, there are other projects to import.
The readme makes no mention of them.
Thanks, for the heads up, we'll update that.
Regardless, if I import them or not the actual forrestplugin project has the
following errors
MANIFEST.MF
Can't resolve these
org.eclipse.wst.internet.webbrowser,
Have you installed WTP? Have you installed the prerequisites for WTP?
To check do the following:
start eclipse with forrest -clean to force eclipse to reload all plugins
(need only do this once)
Help -> Software Updates -> Manage COnfiguration
Make sure the "Show disabled features" button is pressed (third from
left on toolbar)
Expand the tree
Are any of your plugins disabled? That is do they show a little red "no
entry" sign on thier icon. If they are have a look at the status of
those plugins to see why.
org.apache.forrest.eclipse.servletEngine
This is one of the projects you must import into your workspace. Do you
have it? (it's in our SVN)
src/org/apache/forrest/eclipse/job/ForrestRunner.java
Can't resolve the following import statelments
import org.apache.forrest.eclipse.servletEngine.Jetty;
import org.apache.forrest.eclipse.servletEngine.Server;
import org.eclipse.wst.internet.webbrowser.internal.Trace;
import org.eclipse.wst.internet.webbrowser.internal.WebBrowserUIPlugin;
These will go away when you solve the above issues.
I actually set up wtp all in one package (includes eclipse and wtp all
together), and all the other prerequisits mentioned seem also to be
installed. So what am I missing?
What do you mean you got one package for Eclipse + WTP? Can you point me
to the lcoation you downloaded this? I'm not aware of such a package.
In my experience WTP is very much dependant on specific versions of its
pre-requisites, it is important to ensure you have the exact versions
they specifiy on their downloads page.
