The following steps are necessary to install ESE:

  1. ESE needs a few things ("dependencies") set before you can install it:
    1. You must have a live and running version of SmartEiffel. The more recent, the better. Note that a 2.2 release won't work at all. You currently need to install a development version from the subversion repository or using the nightly snapshot. For production code you may use SmartEiffel 2.3, but the installer needs an updated EXTERNAL_INSTALL currently only available in SVN.
    2. You need the Eiffel Wrapper Libraries Collection (EWLC) too.
  2. Download ESE: currently you need Subversion as no release is yet available.
  3. Install ESE: you need to go in the main directory of ESE, and type the following command:
    ./make.sh

The installer will:

  • Convert your SmartEiffel configuration file (usually ~/.serc on Unix) to a directory, renaming the default file to vanilla.se
  • Add an ESE-specific configuration file in the directory created above, named ese.se
  • Compile all the ESE tools and add them to the bin directory of the SmartEiffel installation (you need proper rights for that)
