Setup Guide for Eclipse ​
1. Download the Eclipse Product ​
Download the Eclipse Product from the Download Page for your platform. Extract the contained files to a location of your choice.
2. Create/Open a workspace ​
Once Eclipse opens, it will ask you for a location of a workspace. We recommend setting your workspace to a folder where you intent to place all projects depending on the analysis. Select this folder in the dialouge as workspace and press the Launch button.
3. Importing projects ​
If you want to work or modify the analysis directly, you first need to clone the analysis repository to your desired location using git clone. Then use the dialouge at File->Import->General->Existing Projects into Workspace to import the plugins contained in the analysis repository. Select the Folder of the cloned analysis as root directory. Then use the Deselect All button to deselect all found projects and select the following if you need them:
| Project | Description | Recommended? |
|---|---|---|
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis | Core Functionality of the Analysis | Required |
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.pcm | PCM Functionality of the Analysis | Required |
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.dfd | DFD Functionality of the Analysis | Required |
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.tests | Tests of the Analysis | Required |
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.examplemodels | Example Models | Required |
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.converter | Model Converter | Needed for Model Conversion |
org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.converter.tests | Tests of the Model Converter | Needed for Model Conversion |
Projects ending with .feature | Eclipse Feature Plugin | Do Not Import |
Projects ending with .targetplatform | Eclipse Targetplatform | Do Not Import |
org.dataflowanalysis.dfd.datadictionary.* | Data Dictionary Metamodel | Only imported when modifed |
org.dataflowanalysis.dfd.dataflowdiagram.* | Data Flow Diagram Metamodel | Only imported when modified |
Projects eding with .mwe2 | Automatic Build Scrips for Metamodels | Do Not Import |
4. Testing the Setup ​
If you have imported the org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.tests project, you can run the analysis tests to test your setup. To do that navigate in the file explorer (typically on the left side) to the org.dataflowanalysis.analysis.tests plugin. Right click on the src directory and select Run As->JUnit Test (do not select JUnit Plug-in Test). If all tests run sucessfully, your development enviornment is setup correctly!
5. Using the Analysis ​
Now that you have setup the analysis locally, you can refer to the guide on running the analysis locally here
