I personally use JetBrains IDEA at the moment, although at times in the past I did use NetBeans, and even vi for spot-fixes. However, there is nothing at all in the LDAP SDK source code or build environment that is specific to any IDE. > * It would be much appreciated if the code can be configured as a > Eclipse project. There should be no reason that this wouldn't work, and it should be trivial to set up. However, I don't use Eclipse so I can't tell you exactly what needs to be done to make that happen. If you're not planning on altering the LDAP SDK itself and just want to use the source code as a reference when writing your own application, then all you should need to do is use the src.zip file provided as part of the LDAP SDK download. This contains all of the source code and properties files used by the LDAP SDK, and you should be able to configure your IDE to point to a source zip file for any libraries that you're using. If you want to be able to build and/or alter the LDAP SDK for yourself, then you'll need to check out the source code from the repository. The important paths you'll need to configure are: Ant build script: - trunk/build-se.xml Main source directories: - trunk/src - trunk/gen-src/messages Source directories for custom Ant tasks used during the build process: - trunk/build-src/copydocs - trunk/build-src/digest - trunk/build-src/messages - trunk/build-src/sanitycheck - trunk/build-src/svnversion Neil Wilson |
