This document provides an overview of the current functionality in the Eclipse Web Demo, how to get started, and what you can expect to work.
Point your browser to (we really need a demo URL). To run the server side yourself, see Running the Server. (If we have a demo server with sample workspaces, we can have a more scripted demo, with some development scenario. Until then, this is kind of generic....)
The tree on the left shows the projects in your workspace. You can navigate the workspace using the tree. If you click on a file, the code will be displayed in the editor on the right. You can also create new projects, folders, or files using the New dropdown on the toolbar.
The code editor supports syntax highlighting for Javascript, HTML, and CSS. Clicking in the editor will show you the line number/column in the status area. To save a file, click on the save icon in the toolbar.
You can change between workspaces, provided they are located as sibling folders to the default workspace used. Click on the Workspace button on the toolbar and enter the folder name of the workspace that you want to switch to. (Note: when we have a demo server set up, we can change these instructions to discuss what workspaces are available so that a script could be followed.)
The code is currently hosted in the Ottawa CVS server. If you don't have access to this server, you'll need to do the following:
Once you have a password, point your CVS connection to:
ottcvs1.ottawa.ibm.com /home/cvs/desktop
-data c:\workspaces\demoIf you want to switch between workspaces, you should set up a directory structure whereby the different workspaces are siblings underneath the same folder. Something like:
c:\workspaces\ demo1 demo2 demo3
