    Installing Prerequisites
    To install CD++Builder2.0 you will first need to install all the software provided by the CD++ for
    Eclipse 3.3 installer (Eclipse, Cygwin, Blender, etc, etc).

    The installer comes with a guideline (its copied to c:\CD++Builder Toolkit Automatic Installation
    Guide.pdf when the installer is run) that explains the detailed steps.

    After the installation it is important to:

    1. Follow the instructions in the section 11. After installation tasks.


    2. Follow ALWAYS the instruction in section "The following next step must be follow ONLY if
    you have install Cygwin MANNUALLY ". You will have to change the profile file as
    described there (there is a subtle error in the file where you will need to change
    HOME="/cygwin/c" for HOME="/cygdrive/c".
    3. It might be needed to run the c:\cygwin\setup.exe with the Install from local Directory
    option (then Next, Next, Next, ...).
    4. Delete the eclipse folder that is created during the installation (by default it is located in
    c:\eclipse). A newer version of Eclipse will be installed in the following steps.

    Installing CD++Builder 2.0


    Downloading a full Eclipse
    The first and simpler way (though it takes more time to download), is to download the last eclipse
    provided by the cathedra located in:

    https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=235328 (this URL might change)

    Once you get the zip file, just unzip in the folder you want eclipse to be installed.

    This download includes a workspace with examples of DEVS and DEVS-Graphs models ready to be
    used. This workspace is located in %eclipseInstallationDir%\CD++Builder Example Workspace. To
    use it, open Eclipse and select it from the File --> Swith Workspace --> Other... . Then import the
    projects contained in that folder (File --> Import --> Existing Projects into workspace and select all
    the projects in %eclipseInstallationDir%\CD++Builder Example Workspace).

    IMPORTANT: Remember to run the update (see updating eclipse) to work with the last version of
    the tool.
