How can I develop using Eclipse?

The following steps have been figured out by Eclipse developers:

Prepare Eclipse

  • Install Eclipse IDE for Java Developers
  • Install m2eclipse from the Repository
  • Install EGit from the Repository
  • Install m2e-egit via "File > Import > Maven > Checkout Maven Projects from SCM > Find more SCM connectors in the m2e marketplace"
  • The steps above require a bunch of "Ok", "Next", "Finish" confirmations and restarts of Eclipse

Checkout out github-Repository

  • "File > Import > Maven > Checkout Maven Projects from SCM"
  • Select "SCM URL:" git and type "git://github.com/cpesch/RouteConverter"
  • The "Package Explorer" should now show up about 30 projects

Start RouteConverter out of Eclipse

  • Select "Navigate > Open Type..." then type "RouteConverter" and confirm
  • "Run > Debug As > Java Application"
  • Select "Run > Debug Configurations... > Main > Project > RouteConverterWindows" for a 32-bit Java to ensure that the map is displayed
  • Select "Run > Debug Configurations... > Main > Project > RouteConverterWindows64" for a 64-bit Java to ensure that the map is displayed
