No startup file

[xsyz-eng]

I strictly followed the wiki tutorial to configure Eclipse. After 7 hours, Eclipse finally stopped reporting errors, but I couldn't find the debug and launch configuration files. After using m2's package, an error occurred as shown below

My Java version is 21, and my Eclipse version is 2024-12
Thanks for the explanation

From your above screenshot, you're missing the jdbc-libsql project in your workspace. FYI, here's the project list in my workspace:

My guess is, you forgot to run the build.cmd script in the tools directory, after cloning the dbeaver repository. The build.cmd script would then clone the other 2 repositories (if they don't yet exist), so you will end up with the following folder structure for the 3 repositories:

So here are the commands (or steps) I would use, in a Windows command prompt, to develop for DBeaver:

git clone https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver
cd dbeaver\tools
build.cmd

and you'll have the above folder structure set up for development.

Then in your Eclipse workspace, import as "Existing Maven Projects",

first import the dbeaver-common project, then import the dbeaver project (and this 2nd import will then automatically import the 3rd project jdbc-libsql).

Further more, the jdbc-libsql project would probably then fail to compile in the workspace with some weird error message (like my above screenshot of the project list showing the "red" star for it). In that case, force a Maven compile for that project, by

Right-click  -->  Run As  -->  4 Maven install

and then after a while the Maven build would complete (hopefully successful! - just watch the Console view tab for build output) and the "red" star error will be gone.

As to the missing "launch configuration files", they are no longer included in the dbeaver repo, but you can create them yourself in your workspace. Here's @ged-yuko's comment about it: https://github.com/orgs/dbeaver/discussions/38661#discussioncomment-13795015
