==First Steps==
<kymara> so do you have any idea how i'd run teh server from eclipse? [10:42]
# First of all open the view called Package Explorer.
<durkham> no not really, mine wont run because of that mysql problem :)
# Create new 'Java Project'
<kymara> when one does ant dist for example you get a zip folder in
# Get stendhal from CVS.
stendhal/build which i unzip in another folder [10:43]
# make sure that the marauroa.ini is in your stendhal project folder.
<kymara> but i better not run that itn eclipse, that's froman old version
# right click on your project folder and select "Properties" in the context menu.
<durkham> how do you start the server normally? [10:44]
# then select "Java Build Path" on the left side of the dialog box.
<kymara> i do ant dist and that makes a zipped file inside stendhal/build/
<pre>source folder: stendhal/src
called something like stendhal-server-0.57.5.zip then i unzip that in
default output folder: stendhal/classes
a 'server' folder then i type ./start.sh which sets my classpath and
On the "library" tab: [Add jars] and select all the files in stendhal/lib</pre>
starts the server [10:47]
Eclipse should be able to compile the source code now. There should be a little yellow sign before your project folder but not red X. The package explorer should now display the "src" folder directly below the root folder with a different icon, the icon is like a small grid.
<kymara> same when i want a new client i unzip

stendhal/build/stendhal-0.57.5.zip ina client folder then the .jar i

* please right click your project folder again --> properties -> java build path.
<durkham> in start.sh there must be written how the server is started [10:54]
* in the [source] tab there should only be stendhal/src, so remove stendhal/tiled/src
<kymara> java -cp "${LOCALCLASSPATH}" marauroa.server.marauroad -c

project folder. [11:07]
==To make the client run==
<hendrik> is there a "J" in it?
# Open games.stendhal.client.update.Starter.java in the editor
<kymara> I can't find Project Explorer to open but I can find Projects [11:08]
# then again the small black arror on the right side ofthe green bug.
<kymara> in Projects I see a small J

# for the client the [Classpath] advanced root folder thingy is needed as well.
<kymara> only navigator does

<kymara> there is something called Package Explorer
yay shiny new client, shiny server
<hendrik> oh sorry,you are right. [11:11]
<kymara> i can make a new project
<kymara> from an existing ant build
<hendrik> no, it is ok.
<hendrik> after you do the steps there should be "src" folder directly below
the project folder in the package explorer. [11:12]
<CIA-21> arianne_rpg: astridemma *
stendhal/src/games/stendhal/client/entity/RPEntity.java: removed
unused imports [11:13]
<hendrik> do NOT create an ant project. [11:14]
<kymara> i can't do the first thing you said [11:16]
<kymara> right click on your project folder and select "Properties" in the
<kymara> context menu.
<kymara> there's nothing in my project folder [11:17]
<kymara> should i create a new project but not an ant one?
<hendrik> is the package explorer empty? [11:18]
<hendrik> or do you see the directory tree there?
<kymara> i see directory tree in package explorer and navigator [11:19]
<hendrik> ok [11:20]
<hendrik> with "project folder" i mean the top level entry.
<hendrik> in the package explorer.
<hendrik> the one with the blue folder icon [11:21]
<kymara> ok i will go back and follow your instructions now :)
<kymara> sleetcing properties doesn't show a 'Java build path' on the left. it
shows 'Builders' though [11:22]
<kymara> i think i only imported it as a cvs project so far? [11:23]
<hendrik> ok, it there a little blue "J" on the blue folder icon.
<hendrik> ?
<kymara> no not on the one in package explorer
<kymara> it shows an orange square [11:25]
<hendrik> then you need to create a new "Java Project".
<kymara> Cannot create project content in workspace. [11:30]
<hendrik> did you use "file -> new project" or something else? [11:31]
<hendrik> does the old and new project folder tree overlap? [11:32]
<kymara> i deleted the old cvs project from eclipse but not the files then i
was trying to create a project from files and it didn't likeit
[11:33]
<kymara> but i got it working now properly
<hendrik> Does the package explorer now display the "src" folder directly
below the root folder with a different icon? [11:35]
<kymara> yes the icon is like a small grid [11:36]
<kymara> and i followed all the instructions about jars and output folders you
said above
<kymara> oh but a little red cross just appeared
<kymara> shall i tell you the errors? [11:37]
<hendrik> yes
<kymara> it's to do with Entity.java
<kymara> it wants java.lang.iterable it is indirectly referenced from required
.class files
<kymara> i'll add import blah to Entity.java? [11:38]
<hendrik> menu Windows | Preferences | Java | Installed JREs
<hendrik> there should be at least one entry with a valid JAVA_HOME path
[11:39]
<kymara> i'm using teh wrong java vm
<kymara> adding better one now [11:40]
<hendrik> there should be no more red X. [11:43]
<hendrik> if it does not change the error we may configure it in the project
preferences as well.
<kymara> i have now made it so JDK compliance is 5.0 [11:46]
*** ChadF (n=chadf@user-119a5l5.biz.mindspring.com) has joined channel #arianne
[11:47]
<hendrik> is there still a red X?
<kymara> ChadF: i know the rejection message doesn't come up but i figured
while i was there i put it in for future use :P
<hendrik> or does it compile now?
<kymara> hendrik: it's rebuilding the project 33%
<kymara> it needs so many billions of heap space. i need a better computer
[11:48]
<kymara> there's still a red cross
<ChadF> kymara: I know.. but still should make sure there aren't arbitrary
line breaks in it (so it doesn't look bad if/when enabled), if you
haven't already. [11:49]

<hendrik> kymara, please ignore the stendhal/tools for the moment.

<hendrik> please right click your project folder again --> properties -> java
build path.
<kymara> ok [11:51]
<hendrik> in the [source] tab there should only be stendhal/src
<hendrik> remove stendhal/tiled/src
<kymara> ok
<hendrik> this entry has higher priority than the tiled.jar in the libs folder.
<hendrik> but this code is highly outdated. [11:52]
<kymara> no little red crosses now :) only warnings :) [11:54]
<hendrik> very good. [11:55]
<hendrik> in the toolbar there is a green icon which looks like a bug.
