Checking out and setting up deegree in Eclipse

The following step-by-step instruction refers to the menu structure and naming of Eclipse 3.2.2.. Be aware to have a SVN plugin like Subclipse installed.

1. Run Eclipse
2. Open a new project: File > New > Project
3. Select SVN > Checkout Projects from SVN, click "Next"
4. Create a new repository location: "https://svn.wald.intevation.org/svn/deegree/", click "Next"
5. Select Folder to checkout

6. Select the folder with the according content (see above). and click "Next"
7. Select "Check out as a project configured using the New Project Wizard". , click "Next"

8. "Java Project", click "Next"
9. Enter name for the new project, e.g. "deegree", make sure the compiler compliance level is set to (Java) "5.0"
10. Select "Finish"
11. Confirm the question to open the Java Perspective
12. Afterwards, you have to edit the build path of the new project:
    • Project -> Properties
    • Select "Java Build Path"
    • Select "Libraries" -> "Add JARs"
    • Add each and every (!) jar from the "lib" directory and click OK
    • Select "Source"
    • Select "deegree", click "Remove"
    • Click "Add Folder", select "src" and "test", click "OK"
    • Change "Default output folder" to "deegree/classes"
    • Click "OK"
    

However, you will still see compile errors. This is due to missing libraries (with commercial licenses, e.g. Oracle) which you need to obtain yourself. Alternatively, you can disable the compiling of the classes that depend on these libraries.
