RTC 2.0.0.2 with PHP

Hi,

I installed RTC 2.0.0.2 ifix3, and went to Help->Software Updates->Find and Install, and I downloaded PDT all-in-one tools for eclipse 3.4.2. I successfully installed these plugins, and I was asked to restart eclipse workspace. After that, I can't start up eclipse anymore.

Does anyone have any experience with PHP and RTC together in Eclipse?

Regards,

Not tried PDT but try starting eclipse from scratch with the -clean option. This forces all the plugins to be re-read and see if that helps.

Hi Anthony,

I downloaded Eclipse 3.5.2 for PHP developers, then I installed RTC 3.0 client using option "Expand existing eclipse..." and succeeded, it works perfect.

In this case, we got RTC source control support for PHP development.

If anyone want to try this or has problems, let me know and I will help with it.

Hi milan, I'll try PHP + RTC 3.0, I already have eclipse running the RTC client. So, can I just install the Eclipse for PHP Developers plugin and that's it?
I don't know too much about this, so I'd like to know how are these tool usually used? I mean, will every developer have a copy of the web site running in his machine? Do I first set RTC client, pull the code, and THEN configure a local web server to use the project files?

Note that this question is an Eclipse question, not an RTC question.
RTC does not care how you configure your test/debug environment in Eclipse.

Hi macklein,

First of all, I've already had set up PHP environment without eclipse (Wamp). Then, I downloaded Eclipse 3.6.1 for PHP developers. After that, I run RTC 3.0 installation, and during the installation process, I used "Expand the existing Eclipse" option, and installed RTC 3.0 in existing eclipse (PHP).
Next when you start your eclipse for the first time, make sure that you have set up your server in eclipse:
Windows-->Preferences-->PHP-->Servers (ex: http://localhost).

If you 'll use RTC Source Control, of course that every user will have a copy of web site if he will make any changes in scripts. On the other side, If you will test the scripts through eclipse with RTC, if you know the address location for testing your scripts, you can just start internal explorer and test the script, but for avoiding all these things, you can just load whole PHP project from RTC repository and on PHP script, just say run as PHP Web Page, and that's it.
Also, make sure that your local repository workspace points to location where you configured PHP server (for testing scripts).
That is in some way how I configured that, and it works for me.
