1. Enhancing Developer Productivity using Eclipse Presented by: Tom Sausner

2. Goals To give those unfamiliar with eclipse a view on what it is and how it works. Discuss Java development workflow from an eclipse perspective. Show and Tell: demonstration projects Not an Eclipse vs. ? Shootout. Interactive

3. Eclipse Info What is Eclipse? Download from www.eclipse.org Brief History Currently migrating from CPL to EPL

4. Eclipse Architecture

5. The Workbench Perspectives –Perspectives usually organized around tasks. Perspectives contain – Editors –Views Editors are associated with file types Main purpose of views is to support editors and provide alternate navigation

6. Project Creation Project –Project natures indicate personality (e.g. Java, HTML, etc.) –Projects contain resources (files and directories) Project types Simple, Java, PDE, many others. Each project maps to one directory Importing - file system, source repository. Working Sets

7. Java Development Toolkit Package Explorer –Label decorations –Project Preferences Common views –Outline View Outline popup. –Tasks, Bookmarks and Fast Views Searching code

8. Eclipse Preferences Java -> Code Style, suffix List, code format Java->Editor->Templates Java->BuildPath Export and Import preferences

9. JDT II Navigation –between editor window ( tabs) –Last edit location ctrl-Q –Reordering View and Editor Tabs Code Complete, Templates Code Assist - CTRL-Space Method Parameter hints - CTRL-Shift-Space Quick Fix Surrounding code in a block Organize imports

10. JDT - Popup Menu Declaration References Source – format, –getters/setters – block commands Refactoring –rename, move, change method signature

11. Run/Debug Applications, Applets, and JUnit tests Run parameters, Run Dialog Debugging Perspective Run Code Snippets in Scrapbook

12. Eclipse and Ant Ant View - sensitive to ant syntax Ant Support - create and run ant files –Run->External Tools –Execute ant targets from the outline view Ant output is displayed in the console view.

13. CVS/SVN Repository Exploring CVS and Subversion plug-ins available Repository browsing Project creation, branching and version control Compare branches, look at history Tagging

14. Team Synchronizing Update –Repository -> your local copy Commit – your changes -> Repository Automatic merge, prompt for manual help Difference view. Overrides

15. Plug-ins Except for the Platform Core, all Eclipse functionality is implemented as plug-ins Plug-ins catalog –eclipse-plugins.2y.net/eclipse/plugins.jspeclipse-plugins.2y.net/eclipse/plugins.jsp Installation – Drag-N-Drop –Help->Software Updates…->Find and Install. Some plug-ins are very version sensitive.

16. Tomcat Plug-in Demo Setup - tell the plug-in where tomcat is installed. Stop and Start tomcat from w/in eclipse. Create and debug a simple jsp page. Create and debug a simple servelet http://www.sysdeo.com/eclipse/tomcatPl ugin.html

17. Hibernate/DB Plug-in demo Demonstrate ORM in eclipse Demo Database Plug-in Edit xml files with XMLBuddy. Using Ant from Eclipse

18. Some Eclipse Sub-Projects Test and Performance Tools Platform –Frameworks for tool vendors Web Tools Platform –J2EE friendly editors & wizards Business Intelligence and Reporting Tools (BIRT) –Web or PDF based reports.

19. My Favorites Eclipse Shortcuts Ctrl-shift-o… fixes up imports Ctrl - space … invokes code completion & code templates Pop-up menu for references, declarations, and refactoring. Outline view Quick Fix ctrl-1
