1 +The first requirement for installing WOLips is that you have Eclipse. It is recommended that you install Eclipse 3.2.2 to use WOLips. To install Eclipse, go to the [[Eclipse 3.2.2 Download Site>>http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads]] and download the build that matches your operating system and uncompress it.

When you are finished, select the "Workbench" icon on the right side, as pictured below. After this there is a small pane in the lower right status bar, where you can look up the Welcome screen again.

19 +4. Currently you have a stock Eclipse installation which will allow you to do normal Java development, but it does not contain any of the WOLips plugins, so you will not have any of the WebObjects development tools. To begin your WOLips installation, go to the Help=>Software Updates=>Find and Install ... menu item.

31 +6. The next dialog you get to shows the list of update sites that are available in your Eclipse install. The first time you go through this process, you will need to create the Remote Install site that points to the WOLips server. After the initial install, you can skip this step and just select the already existing WOLips site instead. To continue, select "New Remote Site" on the right hand side.

56 -7. If it is not, you will need to change your default Java VM to be Java 5 (see Apple's instructions for this), or you will need to modify the Info.plist inside the Eclipse.app to tell it to open with only Java 5. If Eclipse is running in 1.5, then close the dialogs back out to the main Eclipse window and proceed.
37 +7. In the New Update Site dialog, enter "WOLips" as the name, and as the URL --[[http://webobjects.mdimension.com/wolips/nightly]]-- (nightly builds are now only supported by Eclipse 3.3 so, for now, if you are using Eclipse 3.2.2 as noted above, use this URL instead [[http://webobjects.mdimension.com/wolips/stable]]) and click OK.

43 +8. You should now be returned to the list of install sites with your new Remote Install Site selected. When updating again later, you can start at this step. WOLips depends on some other plugins that are deployed on the Eclipse Callisto site, so it is recommended to select the "Callisto Discovery Site" option, then click "Finish" to continue.
