Eclipse Lepido, Tools for Apache Cocoon milestone 1
---------------------------------------------------

The development team of Lepido is proud to announce the first milestone of the project.

Lepido is an Eclipse project providing an IDE and toolset to ease the development of applications with the Apache Cocoon web application framework.

This first milestone is mainly the refactoring of the initial code donation to use Eclipse 3.1 and Webtools 0.7. It provides editors for the Cocoon sitemap and form definition files, featuring form-oriented views along with a more traditional XML source view.

The Lepido roadmap is ambitious and aims at providing tools for both beginners and advanced users: editors, debugger, refactoring, etc. We welcome contributions and invite you to participate in the project development!

More informations and download instructions can be found on the Lepido web site at http://www.eclipse.org/lepido/

On behalf of the development team,
Sylvain Wallez

I successfully installed lepido and migrated my cocoon project from eclipse 3.0.1 to 3.1! Well done guys ;)

But installing lepido from scratch is easier than it sound on the project page (http://www.eclipse.org/lepido/)

Installing Webtools is not so obvious, so here are the required steps for your convenience:


    * download Eclipse 3.1
    * download EMF: emf-sdo-xsd-SDK-2.1.0.zip
    * download GEF: GEF-SDK-3.1.zip
    * download EMF Model Runtime: JEM-SDK-1.1.zip
    * download Webtools: wtp-0.7.zip

You can then unzip all these files in the same directory, so that all features and plug ins are added to the main platform.
Downloading and installing

An easier way to do it:

Just go to the Webtools download page (http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R-0.7-200507290654/) and download "WebTools Platform; All-in-one", it's a big file (157 Mo) but every plug in (except lepido) is already install and has the right version number!

Unzip, launch eclipse, add lepido update-site...
And you're ready to go in a few minutes (except the download part) :)
