Be sure to get the **Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers** package. JBoss AS 7 ---------- Download and unpack the latest JBoss AS 7 release from here: . Be sure to get the **Everything (NOT Java EE6 Certified)** package JBoss Tools ----------- Next, let's get JBoss Tools 3.3.X installed.

The wizard will determine other dependencies to add. * Press Finish, and it will download and install the packages. * When prompted, press "Restart Now" to start Eclipse with the new items installed. EGit ---- Next, get EGit installed. Again, use the Eclipse Update Manager: * Start Eclipse. * In the menus, go to: Help -> Install New Software... * Press the Add button to add a new repository. Give it a name, and use URL **http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates** * When the list of entries is populated, select the following entries: * **Eclipse EGit Feature** - this is the core functionality for EGit * **Eclipse JGit Feature** - this is needed to make it work with Java projects Clone the Periwinkle EGit Repository ------------------------------------ The easiest way to do this is to follow the instructions in the Eclipse Cheat Sheet. To get started, do the following: * Start Eclipse * In the menus, go to: Help -> Cheat Sheets... * Choose Team/Git -> Cloning a Git Repository (Press OK to continue) * The Cheat Sheet should appear on the right-hand side. * Press **Click to Start** and follow the steps * On the Source Git Repository screen, the URI to use is: **ssh://USERNAME@git.code.sf.net/p/periwinkle/code** * Replace USERNAME with your sourceforge username and enter your password * On the next screen, choose the **master** branch * Choose a place to store the repository (preferably outside of your Eclipse workspace) Setup a JBoss Server Runtime ---------------------------- The easiest way to do this is to follow the instructions at the start of the JBoss AS 7 [Getting Started Developing Applications Guide ](https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Getting+Started+Developing+Applications+Guide).
