NaturalONE Version 8.3.7
 —  Installation  —

Using Your Own Eclipse

The easiest and recommended way to install NaturalONE is to make use of the Software AG Installer. However, you may prefer to make use of your already existing Eclipse environment. In this case, specific versions of Eclipse and Java are required. See Eclipse Prerequisites and Java Prerequisites and in the section System Requirements.

If you want to use NaturalONE in your existing Eclipse environment, you need the NaturalONE Eclipse plug-ins. To get them, it is required that you do a regular installation using the Software AG Installer first. When the installation has completed, you will find the required plug-ins in the installation directory of the Software AG Designer. They are stored in <your-installation-directory>/Designer/updates. Now, you have to proceed as follows:

  1. Install all NaturalONE plug-ins in your own Eclipse.

    You have to install the plug-ins in the following order:

    1. com.softwareag.common.zip

    2. com.softwareag.cis.ide-83.zip

    3. com.softwareag.naturalone.natural.ide-one83.zip

    When the above plug-ins are installed, you can install the other NaturalONE plug-ins in any order you like.

  2. Copy the file naturalone.properties from the /Designer/updates folder of the Software AG Designer installation to the folder of your Eclipse installation which contains the file eclipse.exe. Normally, this is the root folder of the Eclipse installation.

You can now use NaturalONE from within your own Eclipse environment.
