First Steps
- First of all open the view called Package Explorer.
- Create new 'Java Project'
- Get stendhal from CVS. (Connection type: pserver, User: anonymous, Password - leave blank, Host:arianne.cvs.sourceforge.net, Repository: /cvsroot/arianne)
- Make sure that the marauroa.ini (server.ini, for Stendhal version 0.63 or above) is in your stendhal project folder - only needed if you will be running the server.
- Right click on your project folder and select "Properties" in the context menu.
- Then select "Java Build Path" on the left side of the dialog box.
- Now add the two source folders 'src' and 'tests' by clicking on the "Add Folder..." button
source folder #1:
stendhal/src
Included:(All)
Excluded:(None)
Native library location: (None)
source folder #2:
stendhal/tests
Included:(All)
Excluded:(None)
Native library location: (None)
default output folder: stendhal/bin
8. On the "Libraries" tab: click on the "Add JARs" button and select all the files in stendhal/lib
Eclipse should be able to compile the source code now. There should be a little yellow sign (signalling warning messages) before your project folder but not red X (error messages). The package explorer should now display the "src" folder below the root folder with a different icon, the icon is like a small grid.
Trouble Shooting
menu Windows | Preferences | Java | Installed JREs
- there should be at least one entry with a valid JAVA_HOME path (make it so so JDK compliance is 5.0 ?)
If you happen to get this: The method getLayerVector() is undefined for the type MapMapConverter.javastendhal/src/games/stendhal/toolsline 111
- please right click your project folder again --> properties -> java build path.
- in the [source] tab there should only be stendhal/src, so remove stendhal/tiled/src
(This entry has higher priority than the tiled.jar in the libs folder but this code is highly outdated)
To make it run the server in Debug mode
- In the toolbar there is the "Debug" button, which looks like a little, green bug. There is a little black arrow on the right side of it.
- This will open a menu, please choose "Open Debug Dialog..."
- Then in the dialog select "Java Application" and click on the "new" icon in the top left corner.
Name: StendhalServer
Main class: marauroa.server.marauroad
* All other settings ("include system libries", "Stop in main", ... can be left at their default value.
on the [Arguments] tab:
Program arguments: -c server.ini -l (optional)
VM arguments: -Xmx128M
on the [Classpath] tab:
button "Advanced"
(*) add folder | OK
and select the project root folder | OK
- button [Debug]
And then the server should be started. Note: you may need to 'add external jars' and add your mysql jar from your ant build type server, if you have that already, or download from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.0.html (there are newer mysql available on the same site but I have 3.0 and it seems fine.)
To make the client run
- Open games.stendhal.client.update.Starter.java in the editor
- Then again the small black arrow on the right side of the green bug. (Or you may also choose to use the "Run" command instead of "Debug" in case you only want to debug the server component.)
- Java Application -> new-icon, and it should be prefilled.
- on the [Classpath] tab - button "Advanced" - (*) add folder | OK - and select the project root folder | OK
yay shiny new client, shiny server
