Introduction
The course is broken into two parts. First, general open source and and community specific skills and ideas are taught. Students learn and/or review how to work with Java EE, WTP, Eclipse project techniques and practices. Second, students focus on bug fixing within the Eclipse WTP project itself.
Part I – Essential Open Source Development and Java/Eclipse Skills and Concepts
Week 1 (Jan 12) Course introduction
- Course introduction
- Intro to open source
- Intro to the Eclipse WTP project
- Software
- Readings/Resources
- "Cathedral and Bazaar" by Eric Raymond
- "Revolution OS" [film] (see also http://www.revolution-os.com/ or QA 76.9.A25 R68 2003)
- Books
- Database Resources:

- Create an account on this wiki for yourself
- Create a personal wiki page on this wiki
- Add a link for yourself to the People page and the Winter 2009 Open Source Students page
- Create a blog (wordpress or blogspot or whatever) and create a feed category or tag called "open source"
- Read the Blog Guidelines for instructions on how to use your blog in the course
- Add your blog feed and info to the Open Source@Seneca Planet List so that it appears in the OpenSource@Seneca Planet
- Blog on your reactions to the readings for this week.
- Begin learning how to use IRC for communication. It is better to get started early such as your Eclipse workplace is set for programming.
- After you install Eclipse for RCP/Plug-in Developers (175 MB) you will have ECF (Eclipse Communication Framework) and IRC client; you can open an IRC client from the Communication Perspective.
Week 2 (Jan 19) - Eclipse Webtools Overview
- Eclipse Newcomers FAQ
- Eclipse Webtools Architecture Overview
- Eclipse Naming Conventions
- Eclipse WTP Community
- Blogs and Planets
- Intro to course wiki
- Guided Tour
- "Yes, you can edit it!"
- Common Editing tasks, History, Reverting changes
- Watches, Recent Changes
- Comparing selected versions (cf. diff)
- Editing help - Eclipse WTP conventions
- Project discussion
- Readings/Resources
- Book
- Tutorials
- TODO
- Complete all TODO items from Week 1
- Blog about your reactions to "Cathedral and Bazaar" and "Revolution OS".
- Comment in at least one other student's blog with your feedback to what they wrote
- Create an account on Eclipse Bugzilla
- Try to reproduce bug for BugID: 173912
|
IMPORTANT NOTE: As it was suggested by Mr. Angel Vera: “The best place for the students to post question and get answers to it will be the eclipse newsgroup". There is a long list of newsgroups that you can benefit from depending on the question. As you are going to be working with Webtools, you would probably want to stay within the Eclipse Web Tools Platform Project. This is an open community of adopters and developers working with the Webtools project.
- Introduction to the Eclipse WTP SOURCE CODE (CVS)
- Eclipse Plug-In Programming Model
- Readings/Resources
- TODO
- Inspect the bugs from the LIST of WTP BUGS
- Read The first WTP Tutorial and use CVS Perspective from the Eclipse Plug-In Development environment to check out source code related to your bug(s).
- Decide and publish under your name the list of bug(s) you would like to work on in this course.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The marks obtained on the second milestone will be posted on your course page. Continue to wiki and blog intensively as a provided evidence of your persist involvement and dedication to improve WTP Projects by fixing bugs in such a wonderful community work.
