eagle-i is a multi-module maven project stored in a Subversion source control repository. This guide illustrates the procedure for importing the eagle-i code into an Eclipse IDE, running in a Mac with Mountain Lion (it is not meant to be exhaustive, but rather to give you an idea of how to set up an environment - different OSs, different versions of Eclipse, different plugins, will all introduce subtle differences that it would be hard for us to cover here ).
Make sure you have a subversion client
MacOSX use to have svn installed by default, but that changes since Mountain Lion. If you open a terminal and issue the command {{ svn -version}} you will know if it is installed or not. If not, follow the instructions here to install it: http://blog.grapii.com/2012/08/svn-missing-in-mac-os-x-10-8-mountain-lion/
Get Eclipse set up
m2eclipse provides reasonable integration of a maven project in Eclipse. Luckily, the m2e plugin is part of the standard Eclipse bundle since the Indigo release. If you have an older version of Eclipse (Helios or older), you'll have to install the plugin manually (it is not clear if that's supported any more - please consult the interwebs).
Whatever your Eclipse version, you'll need to make sure you have a Subversion plugin - either Subclipse or Subversve. We use Subclipse - to install it, follow instructions here: Subclipse installation. We use version 1.8 (later versions don't have SVNKit option yet) . Once installed (requires a restart of Eclipse), go to {{ Preferences->Team->SVN}} and select SvnKit as Client interface
You will also need to add the subclipse connector for m2e, in order to checkout the project directly as a maven project. To do so, go to Preferences -> Maven -> Discovery -> Open Catalog and scroll until you see the connector m2e-subclipse (in the Team Providers section)
Finally, we've never had luck
