In order to build a Robocode robot in Eclipse, we first have to create a Project to store them in. This page will assist you in setting that up.

Creating a Project for your Robots

First, select File->New->Project in the menu.

In the New Project dialog, select Java Project then click Next.

Type in a name for your project, then click next. Do not click Finish yet!

Oops! I clicked Finish. What to do?

If you clicked Finish by mistake, you can find the rest of the screens shown by right-clicking on the project named MyRobots, then select Properties, and then select Java Build Path.


Select the "Libraries" tab, then click on "Add External JARs"


Browse to the robocode directory, select "robocode.jar" then click "Open"


The window should now look like this. Make sure "robocode.jar" is selected.

Now you must select the "Javadoc location: (None)" under "robocode.jar" and click "Edit..."


Type in (or browse to) the path for robocode.jar, again. Optionally, enter the location of Robocode's Javadocs. The window should now look like this:


Click "OK", then click "Finish" to build your project. Congratulations!
