Installation
The tool can be installed from the following updatesite into Eclipse 2023-12: https://gravity-tool.github.io/updatesite
All dependencies should be installed automatically. Sometimes it is necessary to activate the updated sides added while installing manually.
Repository description
This is the main repository under which everything is merged
HowTo Build GRaViTY using Maven
- Clone this repository including submodules
- Run ''mvn verify''
HowTo Build GRaViTY in Eclipse
Requirements:
- Eclipse (tested with 2023-12)
- Eclipse plugins:
a) MoDisco Plugin
b) eMoflon::TIE (www.emoflon.org), now hosted at https://gravity-tool.org/emoflon-tie/updatesite/
Get the source code:
- The whole project is hosted in a git repository via Github: https://github.com/GRaViTY-Tool/gravity-tool
- For student theses, every student should get his/her own branch
Structure of the git Repository:
- evaluation
--> Evaluation projects for automating the evaluation of different papers.
- implementation
--> The implementation of the GRaViTY tool.
- build
--> The feature projects and updatesite
Building in Eclipse:
- Import all projects from the Implementation folder into an Eclipse workspace
- Refresh all projects
- Build all projects with the eMoflon build command
- Tweak memory in runtime configuration arguments to avoid GC or Heap Errors
when processing larger projects with GRaViTY.
(e.g. to "-Xms1024m, -Xmx4096m, XXMaxPermSize512m" or depending on the amount
of memory installed in your machine even higher values for "-Xmx")
