Kieran Kelleher 153.1 9 The first requirement for installing WOLips is that you have Eclipse. It is recommended that you install Eclipse 3.3.1 (or 3.3.1.1) to use WOLips. To install Eclipse, go to the [[Eclipse 3.3.1 Download Site>>http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/]] and download the build that matches your operating system and uncompress it.

Kieran Kelleher 153.1 11 If you are going the 3.3.1 route, then as of Oct 15, 2007, the only distro that is up to 3.3.1 release is Eclipse Classic, so use that one (or, if you are so inclined, download one of the other versions and immediately run the Eclipse project update which will get you to 3.3.1).

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.

Kieran Kelleher 153.1 29 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.

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.
