Running Rabbit MQ from Source in Eclipse / Erlide

I've clone the RabbitMQ repository opened as an Erlang project in Eclipse using the erlide.org plugin.

I don't know how to run the application, and I have 249 errors.

Please can someone explain how to make it run?

EDIT - Example of some Errors

Description Location Resource Path Type can't find include file "rabbit_framing.hrl" line 184 rabbit.erl /home/nicktune/dev/rabbitmq-public-umbrella/rabbitmq-server/src/rabbit.erl Erlang Problems

Description Location Resource Path Type function build_heartbeat_frame/0 undefined line 30 rabbit_binary_generator.erl /home/nicktune/dev/rabbitmq-public-umbrella/rabbitmq-server/src/rabbit_binary_generator.erl Erlang Problems

Description Location Resource Path Type record 'basic.ack' undefined line 1317 rabbit_tests.erl /home/nicktune/dev/rabbitmq-public-umbrella/rabbitmq-server/src/rabbit_tests.erl Erlang Problems

What are the first few errors you're getting? (You can edit the question and put them there; that will get better formatting.) - legoscia
Right, the include path is not getting set correctly for some reason. Someone who's more knowledgeable about Erlide should be able to tell how to fix it... - legoscia
Hm, actually, rabbit_framing.hrl is an autogenerated file, so it's quite possible that it isn't getting generated by however Erlide is building the project. Can you see rabbit_framing.hrl in the include directory? - legoscia
No, it is not inside the include directory. - Nick
I think it might be because I didn't clone the codegen repository - Nick

RabbitMQ comes with Makefile that can generate the rabbit_framing.hrl you are missing (with GNU make). Just use make instead of erlide's compilation feature and you'll be fine.
