The repository:

https://gitlab.com/franciscoguerra/EclipseProjectsOfGreenfootBookScenarios

contains an Eclipse Project in ZIP format for each scenario described in the book “Introduction to Programming with Greenfoot” (Second edition) by Michael Kölling. ISBN: 013405429.

Every eclipse project duplicates several directories and files to facilitate its execution by means of two tools: GREENFOOT and ECLIPSE.

The main goal of this duplication is to facilitate teaching using the advantages of each tool: the main advantage of GREENFOOT is simplicity of use, and the main advantage of ECLIPSE is to become familiar with Test Driven Development (TDD).

There are two run configurations:

• GreenfootScenarioMain (to run with ECLIPSE), and

• RunGreenfootFromEclipse (to run with GREENFOOT).

Eclipse does not know Greenfoot and therefore does not immediately detect the changes Greenfoot makes. So it’s very important to press F5 when Greenfoot IDE ends and we go back to Eclipse IDE.

There are two additional repositories to program using Greenfoot + Eclipse + junit + git, which each includes a pdf explaining how to combine these tools:
