Eclipse or Application Developer updates

For Eclipse or Application Developer environments external to AppScan® Source, you must make sure that you have the appropriate software updates installed. These instructions explain how to obtain and install the updates. The procedure may vary for different versions.

Before you begin

Important: AppScan Source for Development requires a Java™ Runtime Environment (JRE) that is Version 1.5 or higher. If your environment points to a JRE that does not meet this requirement, edit the eclipse.ini file in the Eclipse installation directory so that it points to a JRE that does meet this requirement. For information about making this change to the eclipse.ini file, see the Specifying the JVM section of http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini.

Procedure

  1. On the Eclipse Help menu, select the option to install new software (the menu label varies, depending on the version of Eclipse that you are using).
  2. Select the option to add a Local Update Site.
  3. When prompted for the location of the site, navigate to the AppScan Source installation directory.
  4. Add this update site and follow the displayed steps until prompted to restart Eclipse.
  5. The AppScan Source menu appears after the installation completes.
