Version:	7.1.1	OS:	Any

Description:
I cannot find any documentation on how to configure a project in Eclipse or NetBeans from the Cluster/J source.

How to repeat:
Try to set up project using source.

Suggested fix:
Provide detailed instructions on setting up a project in Eclipse and/or NetBeans for the various Cluster/J components.

Wrong cat?

Corrected lead.

This is ultimately a documentation issue, but since I know nothing about the tools referenced and this info will have to come from devs, I've left the category as Tonci set it, and set Craig as assignee, so he'll be reminded to supply info. Once this has been done, category/status/lead/assignee should be changed to Docs/Verified/Stefan/me and I'll put the info supplied into the docs.

Thanks!

If I understand this correctly we rather refer to the manual pages of Eclipse and NetBeans respectively.

Assuming that we ship the sources as they are checked into the mysql-5.1-telco-7.1 tree, the main piece of documentation is that the clusterj sources are maven 2 projects. 

First, download and activate the Maven plugins for your IDE.

Netbeans: 

Open the project via File: Open Project...
Navigate to storage/ndb/clusterj

Select all of the projects and press Open Project and the projects will be opened

Eclipse: 

import the project via File: Import...
Select an import source:
General
Maven Projects
Next >

Root Directory:
storage/ndb/clusterj

All the clusterj projects should be displayed. Choose Select All and the projects will be opened.

I'd suggest getting a copy of Eclipse and Netbeans to go through the steps I've outlined. It can be tricky to document a multi-panel GUI process...
