== Introduction ==
This page is a collection of helpful hints, tips, and links
to useful articles about setting up the development
environment to work on Melange.
== Using Eclipse with Google App Engine ==
[http://daily.profeth.de/2008/04/google-app-engine-eclipse-pydev.html Google App Engine & eclipse (PyDev)]
To use the copy of `dev_appserver.py` that is checked into the
[http://code.google.com/p/soc/source/browse/#svn/trunk/thirdparty/google_appengine SoC svn repository]
change the *Main Module* to something like:
`${workspace_loc:soc/thirdparty/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py}`
This example assumes that `trunk/` was checked out and placed in
an Eclipse project named `soc`, so adjust it as needed to point
to the `dev_appserver.py` in your `svn` working copy and Eclipse
project hierarchy.
You will also want to replace the `"${project_loc}/src"` in the
*Arguments* tab with `"${project_loc}/app"`.
