And yet it moves! -- Galileo Galilei

Today article will be about migration from Eclipse Ganymede to Eclipse Galileo with the aktiff project. If you remember, there was problem with Google plug-in compatibility and newest release of Eclipse IDE. The problem is solved now and developers can change their IDE.
Migration process is quite easy:
  • Download Eclipse Galileo from http://www.eclipse.org/galileo/, put it in some appropriate location on your filesystem and run it;
  • Install Google plug-in using Update Manager from http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.5;
  • Install Advanced Mylyn Web Connector using Update Manager from http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/incubator;
  • Restart the Eclipse;
  • Switch your workspace to one where you use to use older Eclipse IDE or set up SVN and checkout whole project. (I personally recommend you to just switch the workspace, because settings of workspace and projects will persist. Otherwise you have to set up SVN, Mylyn and aktiff project - everything is the same as described in previous articles.)
Now you can enjoy asserted faster IDE with better functionality. And I provide also screenshot of fully functional application:
