- First you need to install Subclipse
- Bring up the "SVN Repository" panel in Eclipse (Window/Open Perspective/SVN Repository Exploring)
- Right-Click within panel/New/Repository Location
Pick the URL of the one you are interested in at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/
eg: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/ofbiz-framework/trunk/ - Click on Finish. Now, do the initial checkout.
- Click the "+" next to the new repository
- then Right-Click on trunk and select "Checkout...".
- Select "Check out as project in the workspace" and click on "Finish".
- This will create a new project that you can name as you want and download the OFBiz files directly from SVN. To sync your project with SVN in the future, right-click on the project and click Teams/Synchronize with Repository. Note that by doing so you will not have the the plugins inside your ofbiz project. If you want that, follow the info in the "Setting up Eclipse to work with OFBiz is easy" section above. Then of course import the project from the plugins directory inside the OFBiz project.
