This document provides information on installing Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse (OEPE). It contains the following sections:
OEPE is easily installed using any of the following options:
Oracle Installer - Installs OEPE, Oracle ADF, Coherence, and Oracle WebLogic Server. For more information, see "Using the Oracle Installer".
Eclipse Update Manager - Use a local (OEPE plugins zip archive) or a remote (Oracle Technology Network site) repository. For more information, see "Installing with Eclipse Update Manager".
All-in-one-kit - Download and unzip the kit which includes Eclipse along with the OEPE plugins. For more information, see "Installing with the Standalone Kit".
Eclipse Marketplace - Install from an existing installation of Eclipse. For more information, see "Installing with Eclipse Marketplace".
The following system requirements apply for this release:
Mac OS Leopard
Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 - 32/64 bit
Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 - 32/64bit
Recommend 2GB memory for IDE and an additional 2GB if running server locally
Note: WebLogic Server defaults to a large heap, which may be inappropriate for development. Changing the server start script can remedy the server memory usage. |
For more information about system requirements and components supported by OEPE, see the OEPE page on the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/eclipse/overview/index.html
