Thread: [Lipog-bums] Product deployment tutorial

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi there,

Just posted a small product deployment tutorial, run on an Ubuntu  
system. It should work in a similar fashion on different platforms.

Cheers,
Joerg

That's very welcome! Especially since I tried to do this yesterday and
Eclipse would hang when using the "Eclipse Product export wizard".

It seems from the tutorial that you first installed Eclipse on Ubuntu
and then exported from there. That's fine but unfortunately it doesn't
work for me because my server is remote and I've only got ssh access
(no Eclipse in graphical mode).

Since it is possible to export to multiple platforms I would rather
have the tutorial describing that. But this is great already. If I do
manage to export it to multiple platforms I'll write a few lines about
it. Of course I could also use a virtual machine, export and then
upload to the server. But that's a bit too much hassle and personally
I would be more interested in exporting on my development environment
(Mac) and then use it on a different platform. I imagine that would be
the case for most people.

Cheers,
Nuno

I had problems exporting in Mac OS X too. Will give it another go some time.

What I have is Ubuntu running in a Virtual Box <http://www.virtualbox.org>. I have just checked out the Gizmo into that virtual machine now. So what I did should work just fine for you too. No need for a remote server or so.

Cool!

Well, in principle you don't need to do the whole product export every single time. You can also just export the plug-ins you are developing as jars and then put those jars into the Gizmo installation (the deployed product).
