How can I run JoomlaPDT with Joomla 1.5? Is it compatible?

I am new on these types of dev environment. Any help I can get will be very welcome!

Thks,

Pissarra

Yes, Joomla 1.5 can be supported easily.

Just follow these steps:

1. Extract Joomla1.5 in c:\wamp\www\Joomla15
2. Click on "WampServer" icon in tray menu and click on phpMyAdmin.
3. Create new database name joomla15 in phpmyAdmin
4. Open localhost/Joomla15
5. Follow installation steps for Joomla! For MySQL settings, username is root with no password. Host is localhost and database name is joomla15.
6. Open PDT/Eclipse
7. create new project name Joomla15 and keep default project options.

It should be up.

First of all thks for the response.

I have done what you said and here is the result:
1) When I select the original Joomla installation 1.0.15 that comes with the package, it shows all Contants, Classes and Functions. When I select the newlly created project for Joomla 1.5.3, it does not show anything on these areas.
2) I can run and the frontpage shows in the Browser Output. When I select one of the menu options that I have created to go to "Send New WebLink" it displays the following text and not the page as it should be:

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me... I am a newbee at these type of development and I am looking for help everywhere I can get.

My objective is to have a dev environment that I can run, debug and create in Joomla! 1.5.X. If you can also point to Wizards that will help me create a component, module and/or plugins, that would also be great.

Thanks,

Pissarra
