Eclipse - Subversion for Macs

Eclipse, an open development platform, can be used on Macintosh, Windows, and Linux operating systems in order to access files stored on Source Forge. However, an SVN plugin must be installed to properly configure Ecilpse to retrieve files from the AguaClara Source Forge Repository.

Note: This tutorial assumes that you already have a source forge account through forge.cornell.edu. If this is not the case please contact Alissa Diminich and ask to be added to the AguaClara project in source forge.

Installing Eclipse

1. Download Eclipse. Select Eclipse Classic 3.4.
2. Unzip the downloaded file using a program like Zipeg.
3. Drag the unziped folder into the Applications folder on your Mac.

Subclipse - SVN Plugin for Eclipse

Subclipse is an Eclipse Team Provider plug-in providing support for Subversion within the Eclipse IDE. The SVN plugin called Subclipse can be downloaded here.

Installing the Subclipse Plugin

2. Download the first stable release listed. This download should yield a folder.
3. Open this folder in one window and then open your Eclispe folder in a separate window. You should have two windows open. One containing plugin files and the other containing files for Eclispe.
4. Click on the features folder found in the window with your plugin files, then drag the files within this folder into the corresponding features folder in the Eclipse Window.
5. Repeat the step above with the plugins folder found in the window with your plugin files.
