Abstract
This document describes briefly how to develop the JMeter project with Eclipse IDE. Eclipse is a very powerful development environment with following features:
* It's fast! Although it's written in JAVA like many other development platforms, it doesn't use SWING, which is big and slow; it uses an especially created SWT widget toolkit instead. This tookit doesn't emulate widgets in java, but it uses native system widgets (GTK on linux), which improves performance substantially.
* Very functional editor/package browser with syntax highlighting and syntax hints.
* Compiles java classes on the fly (when waiting for user input or saving a file), so one doesn't have to wait when launching an application. Furthermore, one sees errors immediately.
* Very nice debugger.
* Powerful code refactoring: when you want to change the name of a method or change parameters, don't hesitate to do it. Eclipse intelligently changes appropriate things regarding to java syntax (you won't get this result using simple search/replace).
* JavaDoc integration.
* CVS integration.
* Can automatically create getter and setter methods.
* CPL licence (OSI approved).
* Last but not least: search with regard to java syntax. You can just mark an identificator and click "open super implementation" or "find any reference to.." or "find declaration of...". It helps very much when exploring the internals of an unknown application.
* Many (many) more...
Eclipse is available for download for different platforms at http://www.eclipse.org
"Multiple Workspaces"
Most Eclipse formatting settings are managed at the workspace level. If you work on other projects in addition to JMeter, you probably don't want the JMeter formatting to apply to your other projects. One way to manage this is to set up multiple Eclipse workspaces -- one for JMeter, and one (or more) for other projects. To use multiple workspaces, simply start eclipse with the "-data" parameter:
eclipse -data c:\workspace_JMeter
You could also create a batch file, shell script, or Windows shortcut to automatically specify the workspace so you don't have to type it each time.
"Setting up JMeter + Eclipse"
I assume you downloaded Eclipse IDE and have it working.
