Compile from Local files

[Feldan]

Hello all,

I need to know how to compile the L2J source files without downloading them from the svn. I already have the latest source from a friend but am having troubles to compile them locally without checking them out from the svn. Been a very longtime since i used eclipse

[SolidSnake]

There are two options:

Download nightlies
Download l2jserver svn with eclipse

I recommend the second because it's easy and give you all the codes You can tell us your eclipse problems !

[Feldan]

I don't want nightlies and i don't want to download from the svn. I have the latest source but I need to compile it from local files not svn.

[hope]

only way to compile it is from eclipse connecting to the svn

[Feldan]

Kinda what i figured after hours of messing around so i created my own svn...what a pain in the ass :/

Just import the source in Eclipse and compile it.

what do you mean - compile from svn?
you can only compile the local copy, it doesn't need to be connected to the svn to do it...
just download it from svn and compile via build.xml

[hope]

What I meant just said it that way as it was late

Guys stop spam, all know that:
If someone wants to download a pre-compiled server can use the nightlies
If wants to compile a server, he must download/checkout the svns with eclipse

Feldan if a friend gave you the files, do this:

Open your eclipse, click on Window -> Show View -> Package Explorer
Click right in Package Explorer's window -> New -> Java Project
Now don't 'use default location' and click on Browse, so search your l2jserver project folder

If you'll do this, you'll have your l2jserver project showed in eclipse

Change what do you want and compile it via build.xml, good luck

P.S. I hope I get your problem

he can just import it - File>Import >general>existing projects into workspace

[SolidSnake]

For me don't work because eclipse don't see the folder as an existing project

[Feldan]

Thank You Solid Snake that solved it for me

[jurchiks]

l2j's svn contains .project file, so smth must be missing in your end if it doesn't find it.

[SolidSnake]

In fact this is the problem jurchiks Feldan received the files by a friend, so he didn't have the .project file

Anyway this topic can be closed

[jurchiks]

actually he didn't say anything about failing to import it/missing .project file...
but yeah, problem solved - lock
