Install Using the Script install_studio_repo

This option is available only if the Eclipse Platform feature is installed when installing TIBCO BusinessEvents. If the Eclipse Platform feature is not installed, you can use Ant to install TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio as described in Install Using Ant.

When you install TIBCO BusinessEvents (and one or more add-ons), the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio repositories are installed under BE_HOME/studio/repo. For each of the installed products, a folder with the product name is created under BE_HOME/studio/repo.

Scripts are provided with the repositories to install on an existing Eclipse installation.

Procedure

  1. Using a console window, navigate to BE_HOME/studio/repo and run the following command (on Windows):

    install_studio_repo.bat <absolutePathOf_YourEclipse>/eclipse.exe

  2. The script performs the following tasks:
    • installs the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio repositories for all the installed products.
    • checks if the dependencies are available. If they are not available, the script downloads the dependencies from the Eclipse download site.
      Note: If the dependencies are not available, you must ensure that the machine has network connectivity to enable to script to download the required files. This may take a while to complete.
    • Updates the following properties in Your_Eclipse/eclipse.ini file:

      -DBE_HOME=path to BE_HOME

      -Dstudio.wrapper.tra.file=<path to BE_HOME>/studio/eclipse/configuration/studio.tra

      -DJDK_LIB=TIBCO_JAVA_HOME/lib

      Note: The script uses JRE 1.7 that is provided with TIBCO BusinessEvents. To use a different JDK, edit the property DJDK_LIB and specify the absolute path of the JDK that is to be used.

      The script throws an error with an appropriate message if the Eclipse executable or the eclipse.ini files are missing.

  3. Once the execution is completed, start Eclipse and open the BusinessEvents Perspective to access the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio features.
