Introduction

Sharcnet provides a module for the base Eclipse SDK available from the Eclipse Classic 4.2.2 package. Once the module is loaded and the eclipse gui is up and running, users can easily install any of the available add-on packages shown in the left hand column ofhttp://www.eclipse.org/downloads/compare.php as explained in the Example section below for the purpose of customizing eclipse to their precise programming needs.

2) ssh -Y orc-dev1
3) module load eclipse 
4) eclipse

Installing Packages (on iqaluk)

This is an example of installing two packages into eclipse for fortran programming. Many other packages can similarly be installed. Since the eclipse download repository is external to the sharcnet network package installation must be done on iqaluk or a viz station and not on a devel node. Once the required addon packages are installed, they are available on any other sharcnet system where eclipse might be run since they reside in your ~/.eclipse directory. The packages are however tied to the module version hence why the unique name juno422 is specified below:

1) ssh -Y iqaluk.sharcnet.ca
2) module load eclipse
3) eclipse (start workbench)
4) Select a workspace --> /home/myusername/workspace  --> click OK
5) click Help on top pull down menu --> click Install New Software -->
Work with: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno/ --> click Add -->
Name:  juno422, Location: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno/ --> click Ok -->
From the Available Software menu Click Programming Languages pulldown then tick Check boxes for -->
"Linux Intel Compiler Support" and "Fortran Development Tools" --> click Next --> click Next -->
