MyrEkle
Getting Started

BACK TO INDEX
Getting started:

Just execute MyrEkle.exe. If Eclipse not running or not started with the -showlocation option (required by MyrEkle) it will start or ask for restart Eclipse.

Once Started you will find a MyrEkle menu at most right position of Eclipse menu. From There you can access the basic functions.

-Edit. Will open external editor editor if defined for the selected element in Eclipse. If element is a folder, location will be opened with windows explorer.exe.

-Run Debug: Will automatically build in debug mode with Ant, sign and run current project in an emulator or device

-Run Release: Will automatically build in release mode with Ant, sign and run current project in an emulator or device.
If automatic signing is not  set up with Ant, then manual signing helper window will pop up.

-Run Custom: Will automatically build in user defined mode with Ant. A window will pop up for entering custom target name.
Build Debug: Will automatically build current project in debug mode with Ant.

-Build Release: Will automatically build current project in release mode with Ant..

-Build Custom: Will automatically build in user defined mode with Ant. A window will pop up for entering custom target name.

-AVD devices are automatically detected. If more than one is connected  the user will be asked to select one. MyrEkle will not start devices by itself and will not check if they are the correct API version. This must be done by the user. So thereīs a shortcut for AVD Manager in Myekle menu.

-About item, just some info about MyrEkle.

-Exit: to close MyrEkle.

The Edit  and the Run Debug function have also key shortcuts, defined in the configuration file. F8 for edit and Alt+F8 for Run Debug by default.

External  editors, players, etc are linked by file extension with the definitions made in the configuration file.
The configuration file "myrekle.cfg" if not exist is automatically created. It provides detailed instructions about editing the file itself.

If called from the command line a path to an alternate configuration path can be given to MyrEkle.
MyrEkle itīs a very easy to use application and almost everything is detected and set up internally . So donīt worry if documentation seems a little short.

The menu and the configuration file are self explanatory and almost no setup is needed.

So just extract execute it and try.
