Default Eclipse source code - 04-15-2008, 08:30 AM

Hi,
I want to download eclipse source code.Is there any URL from where I can get that? I have tried to download from eclipse.org where I could only find org.eclipse.swt plugin whereas I want plugins starting with org.eclipse.debug.

Thanks in advance

I would like to do the same. On the Eclipse wiki, the read this article on how to open Eclipse source code in your workspace.

But I am still wondering about a couple things. Maybe someone on here has an idea...

I was able to find and open (check out) the project I care about (org.eclipse.ant.ui -- I want to debug org.eclipse.internal.ui.datatransfer.AntBuildfileE xportWizard). But it won't build due to errors because of unresolved dependencies.

For example, the first error,

AbstractDecoratedTextEditorPreferenceConstants cannot be resolved
in folder: org.eclipse.ant.ui/Ant Editor/org/eclipse/ant/internal/ui/editor
AntAutoEditStrategy.java line 313

This is because AntAutoEditStrategy.java imports org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.AbstractDecoratedTextEdi torPreferenceConstants but I haven't checked that project out.

Short of resolving all these many dependencies manually by figuring out what to check out (or checking every project out), what are my options?

Ideally, I'd like to just check out the project I want to work on, and build against a library (I'm not exactly sure how to say that; since I'm already running Eclipse, I should have what I need, no?).

So, if anyone can steer me in the right direction there, that'd be great.

Thanks

Ed

You can download eclipse source code from:
CVS Howto - Eclipsepedia

You can get source code by CVS, subversion, and tarball.
(tarball download spend long time...)

Wow, so I guess this forum is still getting its legs under it? Not very high traffic?

That's cool, but I'm wondering if there are other Eclipse dev communities people on here know about that they'd be willing to share knowledge of?

Btw, thanks for the reply kenasato, but you pointed me to the same link I had in my original!!
