Developer IDE

We strongly recommend you to use a common IDE, as in this way it will be easier to share solutions to common problems.

GenomeView IDE is Eclipse + EGit plugin. You'll find installation instructions at http://www.vogella.com/articles/EGit/article.html.

If you encounter any problem write us to genomeview-dev@googlegroups.com.

We show how to clone our local repos with JAnnot repository (we'll suppose you've already installed Git for Eclipse).

1. Fork the code repo following the steps described at [How to start contributing]. Once you've done that, the repo you'll have to import would be the one you forked.

2. File -> Import -> Project from GIT and choose URI repo, then type ssh://darolmar@git.code.sf.net/u/darolmar/genomeview. The rest of the inputs will be filled automatically. After press Finish the following screen will be displayed:

1. Click Next -> Next -> Finish and your repo will be cloned. Now, you should create a branch for you to work. You'll find the option under the Team -> Switch to -> New branch... menu:

1. Type your branch name and click Finish:

And that's all. From now on, all your changes will be committed to your branch.
