SAP HANA - Studio Installation

Microsoft VC Runtime

For Windows OS: DLLs VS2010 for communication with the back-end system is required.

NOTE: Install the x64 variant, according to the required 64-Bit Eclipse installation.

The Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2010 installed.

Get Eclipse Luna 4.4

Download:

• “Eclipse IDE for Java Developers”
• or “Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers”

Eclipse 4.4 (Luna) was released on June 25, 2014. A Java 7 JRE/JDK is required for most of the Luna package downloads based on Eclipse 4.4.

• Unzip the File (for me, it was: eclipse-jee-luna-SR2-win32-x86_64.zip)
• And copy the eclipse root directory below the C root.

Configure Eclipse

Open the file eclipse.ini (“C:\eclipse\eclipse.ini”) and set the following minimal settings, in particular the heap size parameter (-Xmx).

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll
-Xmx1024m
-Xms256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

The eclipse ini file must look like so (The vm parameter must be before the vmargs)

openFile
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6
-Xmx1024m
-Xms256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

After installation steps

After installation of SAP HANA tools the XS project wizard might not show up in the list of wizards. In this case:

• Close Eclipse.
• Add a line -clean to eclipse.ini file, or use -clean at the command line to start Eclipse.

C:\eclipse>eclipse -clean

• Start Eclipse again. The XS project wizard will now show up. File > New Project

• Remove the -clean option again.
