1. Start an application server from within the console view.
I can stop the server but not start it.
Starting and stopping are done via the same button in the toolbar (right click on your tool bar > Customize… > and make sure all the “MyEclipse” options are checked to see it).
2. Add application context to Tomcat server.xml.
It would be easy to just add the context to the webapplication under development to the server.xml, otherwise I have to redeploy my webapp each time I make a minor adjustment.
We support more than 20 application servers, the down side is that our connectors are more ‘generic’ in the sense that they do not perform any application server-specific tasks like this.
3. Create WAR file from application.
When setting up a project deployment, selected “Packaged deployment”, it will create a WAR file for you.
4. Monitor SOAP messages with TCP/IP monitor.
The monitor is used like a proxy, you tell it what to connect to and then YOU connect to it.
5. Configure the formating of JSP’s.
The JSP formatter is currently disabled because of some problems with it mangling valid JSP pages. We will address this in a future release (its incredibly complex).
I hope that feedback helped!
