h2. Tutorial recording

This recording and sample code will help you get up and running with your first Building Blocks project using Eclipse. It covers how to use the built-in Eclipse wizards to create, edit, build, and manually deploy a Building Block to a development server. It also shows how to add the Blackboard supporting Java jar libraries and UI tag libraries to your project. (Tip: As a best practice, obtain the Blackboard jar libraries by downloading the installer jar file from Behind the Blackboard, unzipping it, and selecting the /payload/systemlib directory. Alternatively, you can select the /blackboard/systemlib or /apps/tomcat/lib directory from your development instance of Blackboard.) Finally, it covers how to automate the build process using supporting developer tools and scripts supplied by Blackboard.
