## Point your browser to [http://cruise.cs.uni-duesseldorf.de:8080/dashboard/tab/build/detail/org.rodinp.platform]
* Since the XContexts and XMachines are compiled to the Rodin files, the corresponding Rodin contexts and machines will be '''OVER-WRITTEN'''. Any changes in the Rodin files will not be lost.

## Download a zip file with a name starting with ''rodin-product'' and matching your platform. For example ''rodin-product-linux.gtk.x86.zip'' if you are working on a Linux system.
* '''DO NOT USE''' the Event-B XText Front-end if you use modelling plug-ins such as iUML-B state-machines and class-diagrams, as the additional modelling elements will be over-written.

The first version of the Text Editor will be released in a few weeks, that means in second half of June and not before the Rodin release 1.0 has been published.

Until then we are going to release a few testing releases (beta) for interested users. You will find instructions how to install and use these beta-releases on this page.


Warning:

Don't use the TextEditor yet with your production models!

  • The TextEditor is still in heavy development
  • It is based on a new Rodin version which uses a changed database model and therefore is not compatible with older versions.


Installing

The TextEditor relies on features of the Rodin release 1.0 which is not yet released. Therefore you will have to create a new Rodin installation. The following steps will guide you through this process:

  1. Download a build of Rodin from our CruiseControl server:
    1. Point your browser to [1]
    2. Download a zip file with a name starting with rodin-product and matching your platform. For example rodin-product-linux.gtk.x86.zip if you are working on a Linux system.
  2. Extract the downloaded zip file.
  3. Start Rodin from the folder where you extracted the zip file in the previous step.
  4. Install the TextEditor:
    1. In the menu choose Help -> Software Updates...
    2. Select the tab Available Software
    3. Click Add Site...
    4. Use the location URL: http://www.stups.uni-duesseldorf.de/update-beta/
    5. Back in Available Software open the update site you just added
    6. Select Event-B EMF Framework and Event-B TextEditor and click Install...
  5. Restart Rodin as suggested.

Now you are ready to use the TextEditor.
