RoboVM sample projects

Each of the provided samples (unless otherwise noted in the sample's README.md) can be run using Gradle, Maven or Eclipse.

Run using Gradle

First, build the project:

./gradlew build

To run in the iPhone simulator:

./gradlew launchIPhoneSimulator

To run in the iPad simulator:

./gradlew launchIPadSimulator

To run on a connected device:

./gradlew launchIOSDevice

To run a console app sample:

./gradlew launchConsole

Compile & Run using Maven

To run in the iPhone simulator:

mvn compile robovm:iphone-sim

To run in the iPad simulator:

mvn compile robovm:ipad-sim

To run on a connected device:

mvn compile robovm:ios-device

To run a console app sample:

mvn compile robovm:console

Run using Eclipse

In order to run these samples in Eclipse you may need to run the latest nightly version of the RoboVM for Eclipse plugin. Use the following update site in Eclipse to install it:

http://download.robovm.org/nightlies/eclipse/site.xml

Then you should be able to import the sample into Eclipse by selecting File -> Import... and then Existing Projects into Workspace.

To run in the iPhone simulator: Right-click the project. Choose Run As -> iOS Simulator App (iPhone).

To run in the iPad simulator: Right-click the project. Choose Run As -> iOS Simulator App (iPad).

To run on a connected device: Right-click the project. Choose Run As -> iOS Device App.

Adding a new sample

1. Checkout the repo and switch to the 'snapshot' branch.
2. Create a new project in RoboVM Studio, saving it as a sub-directory of robovm-samples (or in one of the subcategory folders like ios or tvos).
3. During project creation, make sure all properties are correct (e.g. package name: org.robovm.samples.yoursample).
4. Replace the build.gradle in your project with a build.gradle from another sample. If you don't need any special build instructions remove the build.gradle file.
5. Replace the pom.xml in your project with a pom.xml from another sample.
6. Change the artifactId and name tags in the pom.xml file to match your own.
7. Add the sample in both the root/settings.gradle and root/pom.xml (or subcategory pom.xml) files.
8. Insert a row about your sample into the table below (or the table of a subcategory readme).
