Build Path Problem

lubken

I tried to start couple of days ago with developing a simple plugin according to the tutorial at (http://prom.win.tue.nl:8000/Tracsites/browser/public/ProM/Documentation/How to become a ProM developer.pdf?format=raw). As far as I learned this is the tutorial for developing plugins for ProM6. While checking out the plugin trunk I realized that just pretty few files are downloaded, around 16 MB. I don't think this is correct since a running ProM needs more space. Right after checking out eclipse complains about several Build Path errors (for log see appendix). Ignoring the Build Path errors leads to an "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/processmining/contexts/gui/GUI". Seem so that eclipse is missing some libraries which are out of date (new ones are used) or are discarded (mydoggy is deleted as far as i know). I do not know how to deal with this problem.

I am pretty at the beginning of developing with ProM so I hope I do not oversee anything obvious. My configuration is Windows 7 x64 with eclipse Helios SR1 (tried the same as well with Hanymed) and Java 1.6.0_23.

Thanks for your help!

Best Regards

Dear Lubken,

Please note that the ProM wiki, trac and SVN repository have moved.
See http://prom.win.tue.nl/forum/index.php?p=/discussion/64/prom-package-repository

Please try to check out ProM again from this repository by following the tutorials on the new wiki/trac.
Let us know if this solves your problem.

To give some hints to newbies and how i solved couple of error messages:

- Eclipse complained about a not existing "macros" folder. After I have created the "macros" folder under the "lib/" path eclipse does not complain anymore. Deleting the macros folder or replacing the entry from the classpath did not work for me.

- Eclipse complained about that it could not reserve the required heap space (memory) at my 4 GB Win7 x64 System. I reduced memory to 1GB which seem to be enough for ProM. He asked before for 2 GB which were available but I think not "in one piece".

- The system did not continue after reading the "C:\Users\Lukas\.Prom\packages\packages.xml" without any error and with continous CPU load. I had a installation of ProM6 before running which seemed to interfere with the development version. I backuped the .ProM folder and the development version created this folder new while after this everything worked fine.

If there is something wrong or not recommended from a professional point of view please edit.
