Note: If you want to use Kermeta 1.x see the History section at the bottom of the page.

Minimum requirement:

• Eclipse 3.6.x (Indigo)

Additional and optional tools:

For more advanced usages of Kermeta you can optionnally install the following thirdparty tools :

• M2E (from the eclipse official site) : it provides the click interface in order to build jar from kermeta programs.
• scala-ide (from http://scala-ide.org/download/current.html or http://scala-ide.org/download/milestone.html depending on your eclipse version ) : this allows to debug the generated code in a more convenient way.
