== Development Environment ==


This is a description of the development environment used by one of the mentors (Mr. Alan Borgwardt) for initial PiBot development / prototyping in Fall 2016.

* Windows 10
* Eclipse Mars 2 (eclipse-java-mars-2 or neon)
* JDK 8 (jdk-8u102-windows)
* [https://support.apple.com/downloads/bonjour%2520for%2520windows Bonjour for Windows from Apple] 
* Pi4J (pi4j-1.1.zip)
   * [http://pi4j.com/install.html]
   * Read the first paragraph (re: Pi .vs. dev host installation)
   * Follow the 'download' link in the first paragraph
   * Download pi4j-1.1.zip
   * Extract zip
   * Add jar files from extracted lib folder to Eclipse project
NOTE: This is for development workstation. Pi Zero's Raspian Jessie already has PI4J included, which, I think, is what gets used when running on Pi Zero. (Although, launching on Pi Zero from Windows/Eclipse with Pi Plugin *may* use the jars from the Eclipse project???)

* [https://tsvetan-stoyanov.github.io/launchpi/ Launchpi Plugin for Eclipse]
  * Select the "LaunchPI" item from the "Uncategorized" entry

    NOTE: Default hostname for pi 'raspberrypi.local'.  Replace raspberry pi if you change the hostname.

* PuTTY

    I use PuTTY to SSH into the Pi Zero from Windows:
{{{
        Connection type: SSH
        hostname: raspberrypi.local
        username: pi
        password: raspberry
}}}

* WinSCP

    I use WinSCP transfer files between Windows and the Pi Zero.

        Same connection information used for PuTTY
