Configuring Rhapsody for Eclipse

The settings for an Eclipse configuration in a Rhapsody® model can be fine-tuned using the Features window. You can use the options on the IDE tab of the window to 1) specify which program should build your application (Eclipse or Rhapsody ) 2) specify whether the build settings in Eclipse should be updated when changes are made to build settings such as make-related properties in your model 3) specify whether the Eclipse debugger should be used in conjunction with the animation feature

About this task

To examine the features of an Eclipse configuration in Rhapsody :

Procedure

  1. Right-click the Eclipse configuration in the browser.
  2. Select Features from the menu to display this window. This version of the Features window contains the IDE, Tags, Properties, and Settings tabs for use with Eclipse projects.
  3. The IDE tab provides two important features:
    • Open in IDE launches Eclipse with the corresponding project or simply bring the IDE forward.
    • Build configuration in IDE sets the build to be performed through the IDE (by sending a request to the IDE)
  4. However, if you want to perform the build in Rhapsody , use the Settings tab to make the build selections.
  5. Generally, you do not need to change the values for the Tags, unless you change the IDEWorkspace directory location. In that case, you must make the change to the path in the window and click OK.
