Eclipse

[forschungsstude]

Hello,

I have problems with eclipse.

I installed eclipse indigo 3.7.2, because the Activiti Designer need it.

@Userguide: http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#eclipseDesignerInstallation
"The following installation instructions are verified on Eclipse Indigo. Note that Eclipse Helio is NOT supported."

In eclipse I had 61 Error items and the error Log is also full.
I read that Apache Maven create a "pom.xml" and then I'm able to make "Unit Test".
Is there any other possibility to make Unit Test?

Maven only runs on Galileo or Helios. Should I install a second Version from eclipse?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Sabine

Maven runs in every eclipse version, get the right m2eclipse plugin OR do everything from maven command-line. Eg: "mvn eclipse:eclipse" will adapt .classpath and .properties to have correct dependencies et up on you project. Google can help you to find more thorough tutorials

Eclipse Indigo comes with Maven plugin. You don't need maven for activiti, you can download jars required for activiti project and write your unit tests, but I don't recommend this solution.

Hello,

thanks for your tips.

But I don't understand what you mean.

I have Windows 7 and installed Eclpise Indigo 3.7.2.
I also installed also m2e (under Install New Software), Activiti Designer to create a Activiti Project and a Activiti Diagram.

I created a Diagram (like Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTl9LJ_Ob98).

Now I want to do the following steps:
- Export to BPMN 2.0 XML –> but I can't do that?? I don't have this function.
- Create Deployment artifacts –> no reaction after click, so no ".bar-file"
- Unit test –>  this function not exist

And I become a lot of errors and problems in eclipse…..  :evil:

"Maven" is the solution in the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTl9LJ_Ob98). –> But not for me…  :cry:



I thought that "Activiti Kickstart" will be my solution to create a new process –> without errors (like Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laSGNCnokq0&feature=relmfu).
But I have problems to open Kickstart (HTTP Status 404 - /activiti-kickstart –> http://forums.activiti.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4914).

:?:  :?:  :?:  :?:

Need help pls.

You have problems with creating of WAR-file

Why don't you tell me how…

What should I do to run this process without error?

I'm thankful for all constructive solutions. :idea:

You did not write what you want to accomplish for just target you.
If you want to just create the bpmn diagrams, eihrer reinstall the eclipse or use the current version of eclipse (JUNO). Note, that current version of activiti designer is 5.10

Then try to use it without install of activiti designer.
Then, try to use the maven  without install of activiti designer.
Don't try to start the linux scripts on windows OS.
You must have a working knowledge of eclipse and maven.

Then install the activiti designer, create the activiti project using "New" "Activiti  project" in creation dialog of eclipse. Then create the bmpn diagram using "New" "Activiti diagram" in same dialog of eclipse.

Note: If you have not previously used the Eclipse, you'd have a lot of problems. :cry:

I want to create an activiti projekt, an activiti diagram and to modeling a process.
At the Activiti explorer I want to deploy and execute this process.
