X10DT installation instructions

X10 language version 1.7 (latest version is 1.7.7 as of October 25, 2009)
X10DT currently includes the X10 Java back-end, not the C++ back-end at this time.

Requires at least Java 5.

  1. Install the Eclipse 3.5 SDK (e.g. Eclipse Classic) for your platform.
    Eclipse 3.4.2 SDK should work as well, but older versions are no longer tested as well as Eclipse 3.5
    Eclipse 3.3 should work as well.

Simply untar/unzip the archive file.
 

  1. Start eclipse: For example, cd eclipse and execute ./eclipse
     
  2. In Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo): Help > Install New Software...
     
  3. Add the following update site location:
     

    Update Site Name

    URL Location

    X10DT

    http://dist.codehaus.org/x10/x10dt/1.7/updateSite/
     
    • If X10DT is already installed, and a newer version is available, it will perform an update instead.
  4. In Eclipse 3.4: Other sites may appear when you add the X10DT site above - this is an "all in one" update site
    which includes the pre-requisites (IMP, LPG and Polyglot 3).
    The update sites for these other tools get added when you add this one.
    Check the X10DT update site, but don't check the other ones.
  5. Make sure you check the "X10DT Development Toolkit (X10DT)" feature, and the features under "X10DT pre-requisites"
    Depending on your Eclipse version, click "Install" (or "Next", "Next") and accept the license agreement, etc. to continue with the download and install.
     
    Restart Eclipse when prompted.
     
  6. X10DT should now be installed (or updated). If this is a new install, you will see a link to more information on the "Welcome" page that appears.
    Click on "X10 Development" there on the Welcome page to read the help information on X10 and usage of X10DT.
     
  7. You should be able to change to the X10 perspective to create X10 projects and classes, compile, run, debug, etc.
    Window > Open Perspective > Other ... and select "X10"
     
  8. Create an X10 project:
    File > New > X10 Project
    or File > New > Other ... and navigate to find X10 project.
    Enter a project name to create a trivial first X10 project.
