69 -== An approach to setting up the development and test environment for WOLips Plugin. ==
70 -
71 -In order to do WOLips Plugin development you will need two eclipse environments: Development and Test.
72 -
73 -1. Follow the Checking out and Building inside of Eclipse for Deployment in you primary Eclipse installation (i.e. /Application/eclipse) and workspace. This will be you development environment.
74 -1. the ##temp/dist## folder is your Local Site for the Test Environment.
75 -1. Create a second copy of "clean" Eclipse under /Users/<me>/Developer/eclipse (this could be any where). This will be your Test Environment.
76 -1. In the test environment, follow the [[Installing WOLips]] instructions, using your ##temp/dist## directory as the Local Site. Install the plugins.
77 -1. Use the Test environment to exercise/test the changes from your locally modified Plugin.
78 -
79 -1. When you need to repeat the process, shut down the Test Environment, delete the org.objectstyle.** files in the features and plugins directories under the /Users/<me>/Developer/eclipse directory. Change the source code in the primary environment and build. (Each build took 3 min 37+ seconds on my Mac Book Pro 17"). Once the build is done, then reinstall the plugin in the Test Environment. The Local Site should still be selected.**

81 -== Building WOLips with Hudson Continuous Build server ==

83 -Hudson is a Java base continuous build server that allows you to build and test your project automatically. It can be easily configured to build WOLips in a few simple steps.

85 -1. Add a new job with the following configuration
86 - Project Name: WOLips
87 - Subversion: http:~/~/svn.objectstyle.org/repos/woproject/trunk/woproject

89 - Use update: Checked

126 -
127 -1. Install the [[||anchor="BuildingWOLips-Prerequisites"]]. Do also follow the [[||anchor="BuildingWOLips-CheckingoutandBuildinginsideofEclipseforDeployment"]] section, but don't run the build until the changes described below have been made.
