Hi Jun,
glad to have you aboard.
The others have already answered your questions... For the moment what
I suggest is that you checkout the code from SVN and work from there.
For the community bonding period I would say to start from
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XECLIPSE-150 which, as Sergiu said,
was created especially for you :)
This will give us a stable, standard building environment to start with.
Some history... The current building infrastructure is an ad-hoc
solution to integrate Eclipse plugin build with Maven. This was done
because at that time there was no standard solution to do this, and
building Eclipse plugins from outside the the PDE was a pain. Now
project Tycho seems to have inverted this trend and provides a nice
and maven-oriented way to build Eclipse plugins (and features, and
update sites, etc.) from the command line.
Basically what we needed.
Thanks,
Fabio

Dear all,
First of all, I am very glad that I can participate in the GSOC project
and thanks a lot for giving this great oppotunity.
During the Community bonding period, I will look at the JIRA issues
about XEclipse.
However, I have several questions about XEclipse development:
1. Now the whole XWiki project is moving to github, where would XEclipse
project be hosted, in SVN or git? I searched for XEclipse in github, and
do not find a related entry.
2. what is the build method, using maven, Tycho or just in Eclipse IDE?
This is related to XEclipse-150 issue In JIRA, which requires the whole
XEclipse project to be built from maven and Tycho. I can already run
XEclipse from Eclipse IDE. But if maven is to be used, I think I will
learn some maven as well.
Best regards
Jun Han
