Preparation |
The running of Eclipse needs Java Runtime Environment (JRE, contained in JDK), and the development calls for Java Development Kit (JDK). In this example, we will perform development, therefore, here we need to prepare for JDK in advance.
Download JDK (Java Development Kit) and instal itl.
If the JDK is an installation-free version, create a new environment variable JAVA_HOME and set it to JDK directory. Then add %JAVA_HOME%\bin and %JAVA_HOME%\lib to the Path variable.
JDK 1.6 is recommended.
Download Eclipse and extract the package.
Run eclipse.exe in the Eclipse directory.
It is necessary to install SuperMap iServer on GIS server to provide GIS services, and get SuperMap iServer SDK (iserver-all-{version}.jar，located in %SuperMap iServer_HOME%\webapps\iserver\WEB-INF\lib) from the installation directory.
