Mike Schrag 169.1 10 The first requirement for installing WOLips is that you have Eclipse. It is recommended that you install Eclipse 3.3.2 to use WOLips. To install Eclipse, go to the [[Eclipse 3.3.2 Download Site>>http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/]] and download the build that matches your operating system and uncompress it.

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.

Mike Schrag 169.1 50 8. 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.

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.
