Tool Setup
Comp 401

1. Eclipse - Turn assertions on - by default, assertions are turned off in Java. This means all assert statements are ignored by the Java Virtual Machine. To enable (make active) assert statements, you must set a flag to the JVM. Go to Run -> Open Run Dialog ... -> Arguments, and in the box labeled VM arguments:, enter either -enableassertions or just -ea. Apply the changes and close the dialog.

2. Javadoc - Javadoc is part of the Sun Java release, but you must tell Eclipse where to find it. Search for "javadoc.exe" (note that you may find it in two different locations - use either location). Next, in the Eclipse workbench, select Project -> Generate Javadoc and enter the location in the textbox underneath "Javadoc command:".  Hit finish and say "Yes To All" when asked if you want the Javadoc location to be in folder 'doc'.

3. After downloading JUnit-4.4.jar, you need to add it to the Eclipse build path of each project you create. In Eclipse:

• Select your project in the PackageExplorer.
• Select Project => Properties
• Select 'Java Build Path' on the left hand side and press the button for 'Add External Jars' on the right hand side.
• Browse your files to find and select the JUnit-4.4.jar that you downloaded and click OK.
• In your PackageExplorer, you will now see the JUnit jar as part of your project.
