Unpack the binary distribution into a convenient location so that the

"apache-ant-1.6.x"). For the purposes of the remainder of this document,

Create an ANT_HOME environment variable to point the directory ${ant.home},

and modify the PATH environment variable to include directory

"${ant.home}/bin" in its list. This makes the "ant" command line script

available, which will be used to actually perform the build.

WARNING: Running this command will download binaries to the

Make sure this is appropriate to do so on your computer. On Windows,

<b>Important:</b>
|
||
|
|
This is not a supported means of building Tomcat; this information is
|
||
|
|
provided without warranty :-).
|
||
|
|
The only supported means of building Tomcat is with the "ant build"
|
||
|
|
described above.
|
||
|
|
However, some developers like to work on Java code with a Java IDE,
|
||
|
|
and the following steps have been used by some developers.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Note that you <b>must</b> complete all the above steps to fetch
|
||
|
|
the repositories and build some JAR files the first time.
|
||
|
|
After you have completed the above steps, you can set up a
|
||
|
|
series of Eclipse 4 projects.
|
||
|
|
<b>Note</b> that this will not let you build everything under Eclipse;
|
||
|
|
the build process requires use of Ant for the many stages that aren't
|
||
|
|
simple Java compilations.
|
||
|
|
However, it will allow you to view and edit the Java code,
|
||
|
|
get warnings, reformat code, perform refactorings, run Tomcat
|
||
|
|
under the IDE, and so on.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Use Windows->Preferences and then Java->Build Path->Classpath
|
||
|
|
Variables to add two new Classpath variables:

|

<tr><td>ANT_HOME</td><td>the base path of Ant 1.6.2 or later</td></tr>

|
</table>
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Use File->New Project to create a new Java project
|
||
|
|
for each of the binaries repository (e.g., /usr/share/java),
|
||
|
|
container, connectors, jasper, servletapi.
|
||
|
|
Unless you thought ahead to make the ${tomcat.source} directory be under
|
||
|
|
your Workspace folder, tell Eclipse the external location using "Import/Export...",
|
||
|
|
General->Existing Project into Workspace.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Eclipse .project and .classpath files are provided in each of these
|
||
|
|
directories so Eclipse should find all source trees and jars, and
|
||
|
|
hopefully compile without problems. <b>Note</b> that these
|
||
|
|
files assume you are using Eclipse with a 5.0 or later JDK; also, the
|
||
|
|
connectors module must be built with a compiler compliance level of 5.0.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
To run Tomcat without a special IDE plug-in, you can simply use Run->Run...
|
||
|
|
enter "org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina" as the main class,
|
||
|
|
"start" as program arguments, and
|
||
|
|
"-Dcatalina.home=..." (with the name of your build directory)
|
||
|
|
as VM arguments.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Note also that due to the way the Tomcat source is assembled
|
||
|
|
from several SVN projects, you may not be able to use the Eclipse
|
||
|
|
SVN client to update (nor to commit, if you are a committer).
|
||
|
|
Use the external SVN client of your choice, then use the
|
||
|
|
Eclipse PackageExplorer or Navigator "Refresh" context menu item
|
||
|
|
to tell Eclipse that you've updated the files.
