You can download a JRE or JDK for Windows/Linux. On Mac OS X, a JDK is bundled with the operating system.
Once a JRE or JDK has been installed, you need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable.
We strongly recommend the use of a 32-bit JRE/JDK rather than a 64-bit JRE/JDK. 64-bit JREs/JDKs will consume the available RAM more rapidly, and this may result in poor performance.
Clover is a pure Java application and should run on any operating system platform provided the requirements for the JRE or JDK are satisfied.
Approximately 100MB will be used by your local Maven repository.
Your Eclipse projects must use the built-in Java Builder for compilation of source code.
Clover does not support AspectJ-based projects.
Support for Eclipse 3.2 and 3.3 and RAD 7.0 has ended with Clover 3.1.5.
Support for IntelliJ IDEA 7 and 8 has ended with Clover 3.1.5. The IDEA 12 is supported since Clover 3.1.8.
If you're using IDEA 12.0.x and Clover 3.1.8-3.1.11 then you have to disable the "external build" feature.
Support for Grails 1.2 has ended with Clover 3.1.5.
