How to install SVN into Aptana 3 Studio in Ubuntu Oneiric


There are lack documentation how to install Subeclipse in Aptana Studio 3. Also, I recommend you choose subeclipse than subversive because I have bad experience with subversive in Aptana before. So, here are steps you need to make SVN in Aptana :

1. Install lib-svn Java in Ubuntu

1
sudo apt-get install libsvn-java


2. Edit AptanaStudio3.ini to load JAVA-LIB SVN
I have Aptana Studio installed in “/opt”. Then you should add “-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni” into the file. Eg:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
–launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
–launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni
-Declipse.p2.unsignedPolicy=allow
-Declipse.log.size.max=10000
-Declipse.log.backup.max=5
-Djava.awt.headless=true

Restart your Aptana.

3. Install Subeclipse
Go to Help -> Install New Software and add this :

1
http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.4.x

Then you will see the packages that will installed. Install Subeclipse and Subeclipse SVN Kit.

4. Edit vim “~/.subversion/config” to prevent GNOME KEYRING SVN Pop-up
Un-comment “password-stores =” and just left with no value.

1
password-stores =

5. Restart your Aptana and start checkout SVN

Note:
Problem may happen if you not follow this steps :

1
install javahl subeclipse

Still got error ? It said “JNI JAVAHL not available” in Window -> Preferences -> SVN ?

1. You should un-install all subeclipse packages in Eclipse.

2. Re-install eclipse without “JAVAHL Client” and install SVNKIT

You should have subeclipse works now! 🙂
