Development Environment

With this version JaCoCo is hosted at SourceForge as part of the EclEmma project. This document provides an overview of the local and shared tools used for JaCoCo development.

IDE

JaCoCo development is done with the latest Eclipse version 3.6.x. JaCoCo projects are OSGi bundles, therefore the PDE feature is required.

JRE/JDK

The minimum JRE version to execute JaCoCo is Java 1.5. However to guarantee compatibility the JaCoCo build scripts enforce the use of a 1.5 JDK for the deliver target.

Third Party Dependencies

JaCoCo has dependencies to the following third party bundles:

These bundles are included with Eclipse 3.6.x and are not part of the JaCoCo source tree.

Source Control

The JaCoCo source code is maintained in a subversion repository at

  https://eclemma.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/eclemma/jacoco

You will find the latest version as several Eclipse projects in the trunk folder. You might also browse the source code online via our ViewVC or Trac web interface.

Planning

A Trac Instance is used for milestone planning and task tracking.
