Subject: Re: Some thoughts about moVirt
Ok, so I'm waiting for some documentation on how I can start working on
movirt
- i.e - I'm at my other in law's house - we have DSL modem
+
wireless network at home.
I have Galaxy note S4, linux machine
+ eclipse + android plugin. Now what?
this is not :) eclipse has been pretty much abandoned by google and setting up the devel
env in it is somewhere in between impossible and totally impossible.
Just follow the description from the page above - you need the
Than you can use this IDE to either open an emulator of the android device (if you have
strong machine it is fine) or you can connect your phone using USB to the machine and
deploy movirt to it directly (it supports also remote debug, logs etc).
so, if the machine with ovirt is connected to the wifi router and your mobile is connected
to the same router, you are on the same network. So lets say the engine's ip is:
192.169.122.2
and it is listening on https, than in movirt in settings page fill something like this:
and in the same settings pick "Disable HTTPS" to avoid to play with the certs.
Tomas
Cheers,
