These are some brief notes about usage Eclipse / wolips on a generic NIX platform such as LINUX.  As I have just transcribed this from an email, I can't be too sure that it is correct -- please feel free to augment with detail.

  1. Install Java (I installed jdk 1.5 aka 5)
  2. Install Eclipse with WOLips
  3. Create directories to store Frameworks and resources.  This could be anywhere on your disc, but concrete examples are given here.
    1. /WO/Library/Frameworks/ -- Into this directory, put all the third party frameworks that you need.  Examples of "third party" frameworks might be OpenBaseEOAdaptor.framework, PostgresqlPlugIn.framework, LEWOStuff.framework etc...
    2. /WO/System/Library/Frameworks/ -- Into this directory put all of the standard WebObjects frameworks.
      • JavaEOAccess.framework
      • JavaEOControl.framework
      • JavaFoundation.framework
      • JavaJDBCAdaptor.framework
      • JavaWebObjects.framework
      • JavaWOExtensions.framework
      • JavaXML.framework
    3. /WO/Project/ -- Into this directory put
      1. woproject.jar
    4. /WO/API -- Into this directory, put the javadoc for WO.
  4. Create a new properties file in /wobuild.properties.  This should look something like this;
