[Building Sakai] Setting up Sakai in Eclipse

[Poindexter, David Ray]

I have our whole codebase for Oncourse in eclipse (well, myeclipse, actually). I am able to start (in run or debug) tomcat, I have maven build automatically, and I use the jrebel plugin (free for us OSS devs!) for live reloading of classes.

I'd be more than happy to share details of my local setup if anyone is interested in this kind of thing. Took me all kinds of trial and error to finally get it just right, actually.

Cheers!

Ok, just import into Eclipse the content module and the kernel and that will give you all of the code. Then you can attach the debugger as Aaron mentions (I use that method too) and when you hit a breakpoint it will open up in Eclipse.

cheers,
Steve

Yes, I do my builds on the command line.
But I would like run it into eclipse in order to debug it. Because I want to understand how the Resources tool works and I couldn't find enough documentation to understand it.

Best regards,
