On Github there is an description how to build the framework from scratch. How ever I want to understand how somethings work internally so I want to setup the Eclipse-IDE to make this as comfortable as possible. Has anyone a description how this can be easily done?

To make it clear, I don’t want to know how to setup eclipse for working on play-project.

    THIS SOLUTION WAS FOR PLAY 2.0, you can’t use it directly in 2.1! at least the command build-repository isn’t valid anymore.

    git clone git://github.com/playframework/Play20.git

    Add

    addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbteclipse" % "sbteclipse-plugin" % "2.0.0")

    to play20/framework/project/plugins.sbt, so you get

    logLevel := Level.Warn

resolvers += Classpaths.typesafeResolver

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbtscalariform" % "sbtscalariform" % "0.3.0")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbteclipse" % "sbteclipse-plugin" % "2.0.0")

    Then make the normal build processes.

    $ cd Play20/framework
$ ./build
> build-repository
> eclipse

    Create a Scala-IDE give her enough Space, choose the 64-bit variant if you can!

    Import projects from play20/framework/src

    Add /Play/target/scala-2.9.1/src_managed/main as source folder.

    You will end up with less than 10 compilation errors :-(, but will have the most of the code in eclipse.
