building instructions would help

[fac2003]

It would be nice to have some hints how to build this project. So far, I tried git clone --recursive, and then building with MPS, but I get many errors. The furthest I got was with running the build script in de.slisson.mps.all.build, but these are the errors that stop the build (commit d5096df247b3a76e20ed23e8c46a001a743a1870 from May 21):

This sequence of commands should work:

git clone https://github.com/slisson/mps-all.git
cd mps-all
git submodule update --init --recursive
ant

But you can just download the plugins from the build server: https://github.com/slisson/mps-all/wiki

[fac2003]

Thanks for the commands. The submodule update --recursive is equivalent to git clone --recursive. I also found I needed to do ant -Dmps.home=<location of MPS 3.2 on my machine>

After this, I still get compile errors, albeit different ones (shown below). I downloaded the binary distribution form the TeamCity server (I realized after your response that I could click on "login as guest" and this was sufficient to trigger the download). While the languages appear compiled, the bundle does not include any .mpl file or packaged plugins, for instance, in mps-multiline/languages:

mps-sl-all/mps-multiline/languages/mps-multiline/ de.slisson.mps.editor.multiline-generator.jar de.slisson.mps.editor.multiline.runtime-src.jar de.slisson.mps.editor.multiline-src.jar de.slisson.mps.editor.multiline.runtime.jar de.slisson.mps.editor.multiline.jar (no .mpl or .mpb file)

Here are the errors I got building from source:

[slisson]

The plugins are not packed separately as a zip-File. There is one zip-File (mps-sl-all.zip), that contains all plugins. You have to extract it into the MPS "plugins" folder and then all plugins are available.

[fac2003]

OK, thanks for the clarification. The binary distribution worked well. May I suggest to add this info (how to build and how to install the binary distribution) into a minimal README.md on the repo? I think this could help others take advantage of these plugins.
