Apps are normally setup so that eclipse will be able to build the app (with your local machine specific props) and deploy it to your local server.

Checking out a project

In eclipse, go to the SVN Repositories window and:

1. Go to idd-svn > projectyouwant > trunk
2. Right-click trunk and select Check out

You will then need to configure the project's local site settings:

1. Create a new directory called site under the project's top level
2. Copy the files in site-template into it
3. Edit site/ApplicationLocal.properties
   1. Change the authentication.user to your kerbname
   2. Set sf2_passwd value to your cert public key string:
      1. In your browser, go to https://mortar-dev.mit.edu/getcert.html
      2. Copy the text just after ----BEGINCERTIFICATE--- until you reach the last ---ENDCERTIFICATE----
      3. Paste this as the value for sf2_passwd (this is your cert public key)
   3. Change c:/dev in r3props to your workspace directory, e.g. c:/workspace/mortar/tools/GlobalResources.properties
4. Edit site/log4j.properties; Log4j will output to your eclipse console and to a file
   1. Change the F1.File property to point to where you want your log file to go
