• Let Eclipse internal compiler handle the building of JMeter
• Source build paths:
• src/protocol/ftp
• test/src
• src/protocol/http
• src/protocol/java
• src/protocol/jdbc
• src/protocol/tcp
• src/monitor/components
• src/monitor/model
• src/components
• src/core
• src/examples
• src/functions
• src/htmlparser
• src/jorphan
• src/junit
• src/reports
  • Exclude following files from building
    • They have missing dependencies and are related to HTTP security which you are not probably interested in
    • org/apache/jmeter/util/JsseSSLManager.java
    • org/apache/jmeter/util/keystore/DefaultKeyStore.java
    • org/apache/jmeter/util/keystore/PKCS12KeyStore.java
  • Add libraries
    • All jar files under lib/ folder
  • Now Eclipse should build JMeter without errors (stop icons in source tree)
    

3. Set up your custom plug-in project

• Create a new Java project
• Add jmeter-trunk to project dependencies
• Create bin/ and src/ folders
• Create "jmeter.properties" in the bin/
  • This defines where JMeter internal class loader looks for classes
  • It should look like this

../../jmeter-trunk/bin/jorphan \

4. Setting up a custom Jakarta launcher

• Set working directory to bin/ in your project
• Copy lib/ from jmeter-trunk to your plug-in project root
