Openbravo现在完全可以在eclipse环境下开发，测试，部署，包括4个项目openbravo，core, trl 和wad，在相应目录下都有eclipse的项目文件，项目可以直接导入到eclipse中。
环境需求
· Java Development Kit (JDK) 6.
· Apache Tomcat 6.x.
· Apache Ant 1.7.
· PostgreSQL 8.3.x.
开发工具
· Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.
注意：取消自动编译功能
导入openbravo到eclipse中，选择File > Import... > Existing Projects into Workspace
选择目录D:\openbravo\OpenbravoERP-3.0RC6.1（即为安装openbravo文件），接下来依次导入 OpenbravoCore， OpenbravoTrl， OpenbravoWAD，分别在目录src-core, src-trl, src-wad.
设置所有项目的编码为 UTF-8, 以避免乱码问题。
目前这些项目可能都有编译错误，不用管它，继续下面的操作。

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 6 minutes 27 seconds
接下来依次进行如下操作：
需要修改class的输出路径：openbravo/WebContent/WEB-INF/classes，这样才能在tomcat server中运行。
选择项目 Openbravo然后点击 Run > External Tools > eclipse.trl.lib
在 Console 窗口，确认有BUILD SUCCESSFUL 信息.
选择项目 Openbravo然后点击 Run > External Tools > eclipse.wad.lib
在 Console 窗口，确认有BUILD SUCCESSFUL 信息.
选择项目 Openbravo然后点击 Run > External Tools > eclipse.compile.complete
在 Console 窗口，确认有BUILD SUCCESSFUL 信息.
点击 Project > Build Project 菜单进行编译.
定义 Tomcat server
为了在eclipseIDE中运行OpenBravo，那么需要定义 Tomcat server.
点击 window > Preferences > Server > Runtime Enviroments > Add > 选择Apache tomcat 6.0 > 点next >选择你安装的tomcat目录和jre > 选择Openbravo项目 > 点击finish。
双击打开添加的Tomcat Server > Server Locations一栏选择“Use custom location”，Server path文本框输入tomcat，Deploy path文本框输入webapps > 选中Serve modules without publishing > 设置timeout下start（in seconds）为10000 > ctrl + s保存。
启动Tomcat server(该操作会持续大几分钟，耐心等待。)
选中创建的server，然后点击 start图标，或者右键 start。
启动完成后在浏览器中输入：http://localhost:8080/openbravo
用户名:Openbravo
密码:openbravo
需要注意的地方：
1、eclipse报错：java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space
解决办法：修改了安装目录eclipse.ini文件，在最后面增加了两行
-XX:PermSize=128M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
2、eclipse下启动tomcat报错：java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space
解决办法：单击run -> run configurations...，选择配置的tomcat，在Arguments选项卡的 VM argument框最前面加上：-Xms256m -Xmx512m -XX:PermSize=128M -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m。如下图：
