Introduction: Earlier there were issues if we use different versions of NWDS installation on the same system. Eclipse associated with Cloud, extracts into a different location so there won’t be any issue when we have multiple versions on NWDS on the same system. Issue will be with the path if you have to use a different JRE for NWDS which can be adjusted in the path settings.
Following document contains the steps and screen capture of configuring the Eclipse. I referred the SAP Help link for this installation; I have added some additional details with the screen capture.
Download of required files
- Login to https://tools.netweaver.ondemand.com/ with SDN user id/password.
- Download SAP NetWeaver Cloud SDK (neo-sdk-1.10.0.zip). Extract the files to the folder c:\neo-sdk-1.10.0.
3. Download and install the Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers from Eclipse (eclipse-jee-juno-SR1-win32-x86_64.zip). Extract the files to the folder c:\eclipse-jee-juno-SR1-win32-x86_64.
4. Before installing SAP JVM, in case of Windows OS, install the Visual C++ 2005 Runtime from the following site
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14431
Download and install the file vcredist_x64.exe.
5. Download SAP JVM, this is available under the 'Additional Software' area. Click the 'Additional Software'. Extract the file sapjvm-6.1.043-ntamd64.zip
6. Open Eclipse from the installed location, in my case “C:\eclipse-jee-juno-SR1-win32-x86_64\eclipse”.
Note : In case if there are other version of NWDS with older JVM, Eclipse may not open. In this scenario, please navigate the Eclipse installation directory. Use the following command to open the Eclipse (folder/file path are based on the above installation steps. If there is any change in the folder name during your installation then please rename the folder accordingly)
eclipse -vm C:\sapjvm-6.1.043-ntamd64\sapjvm_6\jre\bin\java.exe
