Eclipse p2 is an installation technology built into Eclipse tools. It can be accessed using the built-in ‘Install New Software’ option. It can often be the quickest way to get going, though not all Aqua tools are available via Eclipse p2. Eclipse 4.7.0 Release Build: 4.7. This page provides access to the various deliverables of Eclipse Platform build along with is logs and tests. New and Noteworthy Acknowledgments Eclipse Project 4.7 Readme Logs and Test Links.

This guide is from a previous version of CS 125. Click here to access the latest version.
To complete the CS 125 machine problems (MPs) you’ll writeJavacode using theEclipseIntegrated Development Environment (IDE), augmented with several plugins.This guide will help you install and configure this important and powerfultool.
1. Eclipse
Eclipseis a powerful and popular open-source integrated development environment(IDE).Many programmers utilize IDEs to simplify the process of writing, building,testing, and debugging both large and small applications.
If you have a laptop or desktop that you plan to use for CS 125, you shouldinstall Eclipse on it.Follow the instructions below that are appropriate for your machine.Unfortunately Eclipse is not always the easiest piece of software to install,so don’t be discouraged if you get stuck.We’re here to help.
Note that you should always download thelatest version of Eclipse.As of late August 2017 that is Eclipse Oxygen.
1.1. Windows
The easiest solution for Windows machines is to use the very niceNinite bundled installed1.It will allow you to install both the Java Software Development Kit (SDK) andthe Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE) at the same time.
Go to
ninite.com.At minimum you need to check the 'Eclipse' and the 'JDK x64 8' boxes2.
Download and run the installer.
At this point you should be able to find Eclipse in your installedapplications, or as a shortcut on your desktop.
If you’re nervous about using Ninite—despitetheir backing by Y Combinator and glowing reviewsby PC World and others—perhaps this willassuage your fears.I actually went to school with Patrick Swieskowski, one of the Niniteco-founders.He’s both a great guy and a tremendous developer.I would trust him to install software on my machine 3.
1.2. Mac
On Mac there are two steps to installing Eclipse.First, you must install the Java Software Development Kit (SDK):
Go tothiswebsite.Accept the license agreement and download the Java SE Development Kit for MacOS X.
Run the installer to complete the installation.
Go to
eclipse.organd click on the download link.Continue by clicking on the download link on the next page.Download and run the installer to complete the installation.
By default Eclipse installs itself into an eclipse folder in your homedirectory.If you want it in your applications, move the installed binary into yourApplications folder.
I f you do not wish or cannot use Write N Cite or Reference Citation Manager, another option for both Windows and Mac's 2016 Word and 365 Office users would be to use the Quick Cite method. This contains more steps but does work in creating in-text citations and bibliographies. https://quemunnovi.tistory.com/5.
1.3. Linux
The first step when running Linux is to install Oracle Java.You can followthese instructionson the Java homepage.Many distributions also have Sun Java packages as well—for example, Ubuntuand Mint users can followtheseinstructions to use the Web Upd8 PPA.
To get Eclipse, start by downloading theEclipse Oxygentarball from the Eclipse homepage.Unpack it and you should have a executable binary.The screencast above walks you through that process.
2. Eclipse Plugins
Once you have Eclipse installed, continue by installing severalplugins.Plugins extend Eclipse by providing new features or capabilities.Remembers: computers are powerful and love performing repetitive tasks.So they are great at doing things like checking our code for formattingproblems, running tests, and building large projects from multiple source codefiles.
Note that while these instructions are written forEclipse Oxygen,they have also been tested on Eclipse Neon.While we strongly suggest that you use Oxygen, Neon is currently installedon the Engineering Workstations (EWS).Note that there is a small difference in the Neon instructions once you read theGradle section.
2.1. Subversive Subversion Plugin
Subversion is a software version controlsystem (VCS).It allows both individual developers and teams to work together moreeffectively.You will use Subversion to retrieve your machine problem (MP) assignments, andto submit your solutions.
Eclipse Oxygen 2
To install the Subversive Subversion Eclipse plugin, follow the followinginstructions:
Open the Eclipse Software Marketplace: 'Help → Eclipse Marketplace'.
Search for 'subversive'.
Install the latest version of the 'Subversive - SVN Team Provider' plugin.
Restart Eclipse if it doesn’t automatically.
2.2. Subversion Connectors
Now we need to install some additional software to allow Subversion to connectto our course repository.Continue by following these instructions to set up so-called Subversiveconnectors:
Open the Eclipse software sources dialog: 'Help → Install NewSoftware'.
Work with http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/6.0/update-site/and click 'Add'.
Name the repository anything you want— 'Subversive Connectors' isfine.
Select both the 'Subversive SVN Connectors' and 'Subversive SVN ConnectorsSources' checkboxes.
Complete the rest of the installation dialog. When it prompts you aboutinstalling untrusted sources, click install anyway.
Eclipse should restart again, at which point you are all done.
2.3. checkstyle
When you write code, style matters.This is particularly important as you start to work with others.Inconsistent style produces code that is hard for others to read and understand.
As a result, almost all large 4 software projectsproduce style guidelines.These are rules about how code should be formatted to ensure consistency acrossmultiple developers.Some languages, like Go, have even gone as far to makecertain stylistic choices part of the code language specification.
To prepare you for the big wide communal world of programming, we’re going tohave you install and use an Eclipse style checking plugin.checkstyle is a Java style checking toolthat is used and supported by large companies that write Java—includingGoogle 5.Our style guidelines are based on theSunCode Conventions.
Installing the checkstyle plugin for Eclipse is fairly easy by using thesoftware marketplace:
Open the Eclipse Software Marketplace: 'Help → Eclipse Marketplace'.
Search for 'checkstyle'.
Install the latest version of the 'CheckStyle' plugin.
Restart Eclipse if it doesn’t automatically.
2.4. TestNG
Writing good tests are an important part of effective software development.Eclipse comes with built-in support for the JUnit testingframework, but we may want to experiment with another testing framework calledTestNG.It has some nice features that JUnit lacks—even if it has a much uglierwebsite.
The process is quite similar to the one for checkstyle:
Open the Eclipse Software Marketplace: 'Help → Eclipse Marketplace'.
Search for 'testng'.
Install the latest version of the 'TestNG for Eclipse' plugin.
Restart Eclipse if it doesn’t automatically.
2.5. Gradle
Building large software projects consisting of multiple source code files is acomplex process.To address this problem, developers frequently use so-called build systemsto automate this process.Build systems can intelligently determine what steps need to be taken to builda complete application, automatically do things like check style (using toolslike checkstyle) or run tests (using tools like TestNG).We’re also going to use Gradle to run the tests on your code that will produceyour grade for each MP.
Gradle is a build system.It is frequently used for Java projects, but can be used to build a variety ofdifferent kinds of software projects.
The instructions that follow are slightly different for Oxygen and Neon, so makesure that you follow the ones appropriate to your version of Eclipse.
2.5.1. Oxygen
Gradle is actually so important that Eclipse Oxygen comes with it pre-installed.Unfortunately, the bundled version is out of date so we need to update itmanually.
How to download bfme 2. Open the Eclipse Software Marketplace: 'Help → Eclipse Marketplace'.
Search for 'buildship'. It should say 'Installed'.
Click on 'Installed', then 'Update'.
Accept the license agreement.
Restart Eclipse if it doesn’t automatically.
2.5.2. Neon
Eclipse For Mac
Unlike Oxygen, Eclipse Neon does not come with Gradle installed.But it’s easy to install it.Here’s what to do:
Eclipse Oxygen Download
Open the Eclipse Software Marketplace: 'Help → Eclipse Marketplace'.
Install the latest version of the 'Buildship Gradle Integration 2.0' plugin.
Restart Eclipse if it doesn’t automatically.
