ConQAT

ConQAT enables you to build ConQAT blocks on the basis of existing blocks and processors. If you use Windows or Mac OS X, this is probably the right package for you.

If you are a Java programmer and want to add new functionality, you can use this package to implement new ConQAT Processors. For this task, you probably want to import the source code of the ConQAT Engine distribution into your workspace.

ConQAT Engine

If you only want to run existing ConQAT blocks and don't need the editor, the ConQAT Engine is what you need. Download ConQAT 2.6 Engine as binary or source distribution. Please refer to chapter Build Integration in the ConQAT Book for details on how to use the ConQAT Engine.


ConQAT Examples

The configuration and input files used in the tutorials and screencasts are available in this download (the examples are included in the ConQAT and edition, but not in the Engine):

ConQAT Update Site

If you want to run ConQAT's graphical user interface on a platform other than Windows or Mac OS X, the ConQAT update site is the way to go. As ConQAT is built on Eclipse you can run it on every Eclipse-enabled platform. For downloading it, use the Eclipse update manager available via Help->Install New Software. The update site is:

To make the features visible, make sure to uncheck the "Group items by category" box:

After performing the update, you need to install the ConQAT engine, since only the editors are installed via the update site. After installing the engine, open the Eclipse preferences, and add the folder bundles from unzipped conqat engine archive as a Bundle Collection, as depicted in the screenshot:

If you now click the build model action, you should see a dialog with a listing of the installed ConQAT bundles like this:

Please note that you need to recreate the launch configurations for the examples (via the new-wizard) if you install ConQAT using the update site and import the examples into your workspace. The folders contained in the launch configurations match the folder layout in the ConQAT distribution and are probably different for your machine.
