Congratulations! You're done!

Note: OBO-Edit makes extensive use of the org.geneontology library. You may want to check out the org.geneontology library sourcecode as well. To do it, follow all the steps above, but enter go-dev/java/org.geneontology in the Use specified module name box. Make sure to create a new project for org.geneontology WITH A DIFFERENT NAME! If you plan to recompile org.geneontology and use the changes in OBO-Edit, you will need to set the "oboedit_library_path" ANT property for your project.

Getting the Source Code with Command-Line CVS

Make sure that you have correctly installed CVS on your computer, and run the following commands:

For anonymous CVS access

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@geneontology.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/geneontology login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@geneontology.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/geneontology co -P go-dev/java/oboedit
optional: cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@geneontology.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/geneontology co -P go-dev/java/org.geneontology

For developer CVS access

export CVS_RSH=ssh
cvs -z3 -d:ext:username@geneontology.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/geneontology co -P go-dev/java/oboedit
