cc_training_wheels_eclipse_java

For when the starter templates aren't basic enough

A template training wheels starter for instantiating a plain java project, with Eclipse metadata

Because this is a training wheels project, please use https://github.com/petecarapetyan/cc_starter_java_eclipse as soon as you are ready, preferably right now. It won't be that much harder - no really.

If You Can't See Green 'Use this template' Button

If instead you see the green 'Code' button then you are not signed in to github.

How to Consume Template

• Create your project on github, not your local drive, by clicking the green template button
• Clone this down to your local drive in the appropriate workspace directory
• Import this project as an existing Eclipse project
• Start your coding in App.java's execute() method

ALWAYS rename your project from FIXME, after importing! See troubleshooting below!!!!! (Right click, "Refactor" then "Rename") ALWAYS search your project for the string literal FIXME, and fix any as appropriate.

How to run app

In Eclipse run App.java as a java app as you would any other app

Troubleshooting

• A second project from this template will NOT import into a workspace if you didn't refactor the name of a previous. Hint: Look for a project in your workspace starting with the name FIXME and then rename that project.
• If your Eclipse is not set up with Java 11, you may expect problems that require you to add a Java 11 JDK in order to resolve. PS you need to do this anyway - your code reviewer expects that regardless of what you use as your project starter.
