Step-by-step Installation Guide for Eclipse


1. Download

Download our all-in-one package and the original JiST/SWANS distribution.

2. Create Eclipse Project

Start Eclipse, open the "Import project" wizard, select "Existing project into workspace", then choose "Select archive file" and browse the all-in-one zip-file. Then, a project called "js-uulm" should appear in the project list below. Continue and the project will be created in your workspace.

3. Integrate original JiST/SWANS

As we can not include the original JiST/SWANS package in our distribution, you need to download and integrate it separately. For that, extract the jist-swans-1.0.6-src.tar.gz file into the directory that was created for the Eclipse project. The directory structure should look like this afterwards:

4. Download and replace BCEL libary

Download the latest BCEL library, and replace the one in the JIST/SWANS/libs directory with the new one. Take care of the file name!

5. Patch original JiST/SWANS distribution

To integrate our changes to the original JiST/SWANS, you have to apply the patch included in our package.

In Eclipse, open the navigator of the js-uulm project, click with right mouse button on "js-uulm-patch.diff". In the menu, goto "Team" and select "Apply patch". The apply patch wizard will appear, where you first need to select the patch location. This is preselected if you right-clicked the patch file.

Patch location

Subsequently, one has to specify the patch target. Here you select "jist-swans-1.0.6", which should be the directory to where the original distribution extracts its contents. Then, you will be asked to review the patch. Important: set the number of "Ignore leading path segments" to 1 to apply a successful patch - otherwise the corresponding paths will not be found.

6. Done

Build and run e.g. with the included Apache Ant script (build.xml).
