How to get started?

[Agetian]

Trying to get Git to cooperate with Eclipse, followed the tutorial at "How to Get Started Developing" up till the "Typical Development Usage" so far, got eGit up and running, cloned the repository successfully and imported the project into Eclipse, but it's giving me 434 build errors, most of them being like this:

Assert cannot be resolved
Log cannot be resolved
JXMultiSplitPane cannot be resolved to a type
Generator cannot be resolved to a type

etc.
Do you know what could I potentially be doing wrong? :\

If I had to guess, I'd say your maven plugin is either a) not functioning appropriately or b) not installed. But you may want to wait for someone who is more familiar with the suggested setup.

yep, that's a maven thing.

Make sure you're running the latest Eclipse, Indigo. It has maven integrated correctly. I had some build errors, then deleted my maven cache (Documents and Settings\{user}\.m2\ or /home/{user}/.m2/) then maven rebuilt its cache and the build errors were gone.

[Agetian]

Hmm I installed the latest Eclipse Classic (3.7 Indigo), made extra sure I got both eGit and m2e (Maven integration), then followed the steps again but I'm still having the same issues... Is there anything specific I need to do about Maven in order to get it to function properly?..

I'd try clearing out your .m2 folder, then do a maven -> update dependencies from the Forge project item.

Hmm, deleted the .m2 folder, ran maven->update dependencies, it quickly jumped down from 434 errors 19 warnings to 434 errors 17 warnings, then back to the count of 434/19 and still keeps bugging me with the issues... :\

Ok, after doing that one more time it seems to have worked, but I'm still getting two errors:

The project was not built since its build path is incomplete. Cannot find the class file for
com.mortennobel.imagescaling.AdvancedResizeOp. Fix the build path then try building this project.
The type com.mortennobel.imagescaling.AdvancedResizeOp cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files.

I tried tinkering with the "Build path" configuration but I can't figure out what exactly is required from me... can you please assist?

also, keep an eye on the Progress View in eclipse. maven can take a long time downloading and analyzing its dependencies.

[Braids]

the 400+ errors happened for me in the beginning, too. looking at the Progress View, i could see that maven was busy at work.

is anything going on in your Progress View?

Yep, as I mentioned in another message above, apparently it was a matter of time, but even after all the dependencies are updated, I still get these two errors and I'm not sure what needs to be done:

com.mortennobel.imagescaling.AdvancedResizeOp. Fix the build path then try building this project.
The type com.mortennobel.imagescaling.AdvancedResizeOp cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files.

Thanks for your assistance!

maven is a bit out of my league, but i know a couple more things to try.
please keep an eye on the Progress View and the Console during all this.

in Package Explorer, in the project's top folder, right click pom.xml, Run As, 1 Maven Build.

if that doesn't work, try

right click pom.xml, Run As, 3 Maven Clean.
right click pom.xml, Run As, 1 Maven Build.

if it's still broken, you might want to send a PM to jendave (Dave).

Umm tried these, but still the same issues, the console view also says build failure. Ok, I'll see if anyone (perhaps Dave) can help with it. Thanks again!
