Importing the Jazz server source into Eclipse?
Hey guys,
I'm attempting to write some server-side contributions to our Jazz
server. (Creating some follow-up actions for when a Work Item is saved,
so I can kick off some tasks on a state change).
In order to help I would like to import the Jazz source just to get a
flavour of how existing follow-up actions are written. I've downloaded
the source code zip from the Jazz site. When I extract the zip file,
there is a plugins directory, but this seems to contain features
containing plug-ins, and the source code is further zipped up.
For example: There is a
com.ibm.team.process.server.feature.source_0.7.0.M200810070300-797b0_lQCD2FcFwCaGJ3
directory containing a src sub-directory with 4 plugin folders
underneath it. (The first one is
com.ibm.team.process.common_0.7.0.M200812181901) Inside each one of
these directories is a src.zip file containing the actual source.
What I would like to do is import the Jazz server plug-ins into eclipse
- including the source. This will allow me to easily browse the source
code of the Jazz server plug-ins so I can familiarise myself with
existing extension contributions such as followup actions etc. For the
reasons mentioned above the jazz source download doesn't seem to easily
allow this.
I really don't want to have to then go through each plug-in and unzip
each source zip to get the code into eclipse, but can't see an
alternative. Have I missed something? (Very likely!)
Has anyone imported the plug-ins for the Jazz Server source
successfully, and if so how?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Dan
PS - I downloaded the source for both JazzTeamServer-Source-0.7.0.zip
and JazzTeamServer-Source-0.7.0.1M1.zip and both seem to have all the
source code for the plug-ins under separate zips.

Take a look at
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ComponentDevelopmentSetup
I believe if you follow those setup steps, Ecilpse will automatically be able to find the source files in their zip files, and display it.

Thanks John for the link. I had already tried following those instructions and it hadn't worked, but I deleted my RTC entire installation and re-followed from scratch and it seems to have worked this time, and the source can now be resolved.
It doesn't import the plug-ins as individual projects, but the plug-ins form part of the target platform and the source resolves for them. This is all I really need so is fine.
Many thanks for your help,
Dan

I am trying to follow the steps from Component Development Setup as well. I am getting stuck at this point ....
"Target Platform Setup
The default target platform does not include the Jazz server and JUnit plug-ins. To add these, open the Target Platform preferences page (Window > Preferences... > Plug-in Development > Target Platform) and use the drop-down list in the Pre-defined Targets section near the bottom of the dialog to select the target named Jazz JUnit Tests Source and Binaries. "
I don't have that predefined Target option. Has anyone else ran into this? How can I fix it?

I had this. After downloading all the source into the directory
specified I restarted RTC and that solved the problem and the predefined
target appeared.
Hope that helps
