How to work with SVN and Zend Framework in Eclipse PDT

This post is for all those Eclipse fans.
Latest version of Eclipse PDT can be found at:
http://www.zend.com/community/pdt
If you choose 64 bit version be sure that your jre version is also x64.
On you first app launch run update.
So check for updates and update!
Help>Check for Updates
Navigate to Help>Install New Software:
Find repository for SVN – http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/update-site/
If it’s not in the list, then add it by clicking on “Add” button or find it among other repositories on “Avaliable Software Sites” link.
Select (check) Subversive SVN Team Provider Plugin (Ioncubation) and finish install process.
Restart editor if needed.
Then you will need to select SVN Connector:
Restart if needed.
Now you are ready to have all your projects in eclipse syncronized with SVN.
If you are working with Zend Framework and wish to have Zend Framework perspective enabled for your projects you can install additional plugin for you eclipse.
Again navigate to Help>Install New Software and add new repository with location:
http://downloads.zend.com/studio-eclipse/updates/8_0
Check:
“Zend Studio CE Feature” (for project perspective) and
“Zend Debugger Feature” (fro debugging if you like it)
Finish install process, restart eclipse if needed.
And
you are ready for developing your zend framework projects.
Enjoy coding!

error :org/eclipse/php/internal/ui/wizards/NameGroup
please help .
Or please state any Free IDE for developement with zend framework 2
Nice tutorial, but I’m missing the part on HOW to work with SVN/Zend/Eclipse.
This is merely a ‘how to install’-tutorial
I use for developing with Zend Framework and other phpstorm ;). eclipse is to slow on my machines and to complicated for configuration.
done with all the steps but at de end stuck with an error while creating a new project using zend , it says
An error has occurred. See error log for more details.
org/eclipse/php/internal/ui/wizards/NameGroup
Do help:)
Above error with 7_1 but with 8_0 of zend I got “An error has occurred. See error log for more details.
org/eclipse/php/internal/ui/wizards/NameGroup” exact place.
Great article , I have tried all the steps exactly but keep running into error at very first step after installation all done. Project creation wizard. When I choose zend frame work project nothing happens. If I choose new project , then from the New Project wizard then expand the php then double click on the Zend Framework I get the error as “An error has occurred. See error log for more details.
org.eclipse.php.internal.ui.PHPUIMessages.getString(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;”.

Sure
Hi Vedran,
i like the post.
i want to develop a music website as PHP and zend, but i confuse a problem,
Zendframework support good that ?
@Tobias
You’ll probably need to choose latest version of ZF plugin.
But you can always create zf project via zend tool from console
zf create project [project_name]
Nice article about zend tool:
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.tool.framework.clitool.html
Greetings Vedran,
can you tell me if these steps are working nowadays??
i tried, but i can’t create a zend framework project.. any other item works fine. I need to create the project with zf?
I love PDT!
But I’m using different svn plugin and I prefer to use XDebug.
@Jason
It should appear when you restart your Eclipse or when you open SVN perspective.
After installing the Subversive SVN Team Provider Plugin and restarting, the Subversive Overview page appears.
It seems you are missing a step – How do I get the SVN Connector window to appear?
