#2290 Complete noob needs help with camembertIde

shakeshuck Sun 1 Jun 2014

Hi guys,

As posted by others elsewhere I initially tried to use the standalone IDE but I couldn't get it working as I had the 32/64 bit issue. I gave up and tried the fanr install which seems to be OK. So far so good.

After creating a helloworld project - thank goodness I found the instructions on fantomfactory, I couldn't work out how to do it from the docs on this site (perhaps I missed a link somewhere?) - I got it compiled from the command line (to prove the setup is OK), but pressing build or run from within camembert doesn't seem to do anything at all.

There's probably a chunk of config I'm missing but again I can't seem to find any docs telling me what I should have to get it to work? Can someone please give me a clue what might be wrong, or point me in the direction of a walkthrough so I can figure it out?

Thanks,

Graham

Hi Graham!

I can't help with Camembert I'm afraid as I don't use it.

In the mean time, until you get Camembert sorted, you could always try F4 by Xored - it's the IDE I use.

Hi, I assume you are on windows, 32 or 64 bits ?

Go to Options/Edit config and edit the Fantom/env_default.props(or you can directly edit the file in the camembert config folder under Fantom/env_default.props).

Make sure your fantom_home is set properly in there, example:

fantomHome = "file:/home/tcolar/DEV/fantom_env/fantom/"
podDirs = ["file:/home/tcolar/DEV/fantom_env/fan/lib/fantom/"]

In the options.props file at the top level (config folder), set your source workspacee(s), example:

srcDirs = [
"/home/tcolar/DEV/projects/perso/",
"/home/tcolar/DEV/projects/status302/"]

Thanks for the input guys.

Sorry tcolar, I forgot the important information: yes, Win 64 bit w/32 and 64 bit Java.

For reasons unknown, after closing the IDE down and having some dinner, upon restarting it now seems to be working. Maybe it needed a break as well!

SlimerDude, now that it is behaving (or at least I think so) I'll give it a chance and see how I get on. If it keeps getting up to mischief I'll give F4 a go. Hell, I might even live dangerously and give F4 a go anyway!

Thanks again all, now to wait for the next installment of noob questions...
