Mozilla XULRunner is a Mozilla runtime package that allows to embed and launch a complete Mozilla-based browser into an application.

At ATF we use XULRunner to embed Mozilla browser into Eclipse to provide advanced web development environment with such features as javascript debugging or browser DOM model inspection and more. You can get XULRunner from Mozilla downloads.

Following are the steps to package XULRunner into Eclipse update site so it can be consumed by Eclipse application.

  1. Check-out the org.eclipse.atf.mozilla.xulrunner.releng project from Eclipse CVS.
    1.  :pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.atf/components/releng/org.eclipse.atf.mozilla.xulrunner.releng
  2. Import org.eclipse.pde.build into your workspace
    1. Click File->Import...,
    2. choose "Plug-ins and Fragments", press Next
    3. add "org.eclipse.pde.build" to plug-ins to import and press Finish.
  3. Launch build
    1. choose "Run -> Run Configurations...", select "XULRunner Packaging" and press Run.

In case of any trouble please check PDE Help topic or ask at ATF forums.
