Issues Setting up Mango 2.7.x in Eclipse

[rhurley]

Hello - I looked into the documentation and have followed the instructions (https://help.infiniteautomation.com/setting-up-eclipse-for-the-first-time) for setting up Mango 2.7.x in eclipse - I have tried multiple times but after following the instructions explicitly when I get up to debugging / running step I get fatal errors.

Environment Context: JDK 1.8, JRE 8, maven 3.5.2.

When I go to debug (using the debug config given in the video) I keep getting this error output.

I think the issue here is that there is a dependency inconsistency (should be getting different ver of dwr?) and so the mango code is trying to access dwr classes incorrectly?

I also realize that 2.7.x is no longer the current build but I need to work with 2.7 as I need to edit modules made with 2.7 core.

Hi rhurley,

It's been a while since I've built in the 2.7 branch. My first guess is that you need to run mvn install in your ma-core-public directory.

That video is not very relevant any longer.

For a clean clone of 2.7, you need to define the environment variable

core.project.home
to
/path/to/ma-core-public/Core

Run a mvn install in ma-core-public/

Then set the ant runtime variable coreHome to ${core.project.home} on the JSP-compile target for the ma-core-public/Core/build.xml file, which you can then run as an ant build (assuming your Java setup went smoothly).

As I have said I followed the instructions expliciity - I have done all of those things - they were described in the video - but it just does not work. Could you replicate your own instructions and see if they still work and if not give me an update on what is missing?

Actually I have found out that I can use up to version 3.1 - but I can't seem to find any instructions for the later versions?
