How to set up Eclipse and PDT for Cola and DocShare through ECF

1. Follow the instructions to install ECF:
http://www.eclipse.org/ecf/downloads.php

2. In my example let's use gmail as a communications protocol:

• Open the 'Communications' perspective
• Click the icon that says 'Connect to Provider'
• Select XMPPS
• Input your gmail account and password

3. ECF has a limitation so that you can only use it with the default text editor and the Java editor, but we want to use it with PDT:

• Open ../eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.ecf.docshare_2.0.0.v20080623-0024.jar
• Open the file plugin.xml
• Paste in this XML:
  

<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
<menuContribution
locationURI="popup:org.eclipse.php.core.phpsource.source.EditorContext">
<dynamic class="org.eclipse.ecf.internal.provisional.docshare.menu.DocShareRosterMenuContributionItem"
id="org.eclipse.ecf.docshare.php.dynamic3">
</dynamic>
</menuContribution>
</extension>

Now you should have a new menu entry in PHP editing mode that displays "Share Editor With"

How to set up Eclipse, Subversive, JavaHL and Ubuntu

1. Get Subversion sources from here:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/subversion/1.5.0dfsg1-1ubuntu2

2. Unpack it:
tar zxvf subversion_1.5.0dfsg1.orig.tar.gz

3. Get the needed dependencies packages:
apt-get install libapr1-dev
apt-get install libaprutil1-dev

4. Install Subversion 1.5:
cd subversion-1.5.0dfsg1

./configure --enable-javahl --with-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/
make install
make javahl
make install-javahl

5. Specify where Eclipse can find the new java classes you just installed (I have wrapped this in a shell script, but you can also put this in eclipse.ini):
/some/path/eclipse -vmargs -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib

6. Add Polarion SVN connector weekly update site:
http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/weekly-site/

7. Add Subversive weekly update site:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/weekly-site/

8. Install Subversive and your Native JavaHL Connector for Subversion 1.5 through the update tool in Eclipse.

9. Enjoy!

I hope I didn't miss anything important, since I wrote this after I successfully got it all installed.
