Eclipse Configuration

1. Install Subclipse

Subclipse is a plugin that integrates a Subversion client and various related tools into Eclipse.

1. Go to http://subclipse.tigris.org/
2. Click Downloads and follow the instructions.

2. Check out a branch or the trunk from our repository

1. In Eclipse, choose File > Import ...
2. Choose SVN > Checkout Projects From SVN... and click Next
3. Create a new repository location: https://viki.eecs.harvard.edu/repos/ct3
4. Select either the trunk, or one of the branches and click Next.
5. Choose "Checkout as a project in the workspace" and click Next
   
6. Use the default workspace location (which should probably be /Users/yourname/workspace)
7. Click Finish and wait for the code to be downloaded.

3. Make the project into a Java project

Eclipse inexplicably has no feature to automatically recognize Java projects, so we need to do this manually.

1. Close Eclipse.
2. Navigate to the checked-out folder (usually the name of the branch) and open the .project file in a text editor. Note that the file may be hidden on your system.
3. Change

<natures></natures>

to

<natures><nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature></natures>

1. Save and close the .project file
2. Re-open Eclipse.
