Hello:

I just installed and used MyEclipse 8 in our development environment. Where would I be able to find the .mymetadata file in this eclipse version?

Thanks,
Vu

Vu,

Why do you need to access .mymetadata? MyEclipse doesn’t have .mymetadata, it has .metadata. You can find the same under your workspace dir.

Best.

Hi Joy:

The problem was my Web-root folder was in correctly configured so I need to change it. MyEclipse 8 doesn’t allow me to change it in the Context-Root properties. So I need access to the .mymetadata file to modify it.

I ended up delete the project and then resynch it as a new project from SVN, then I found the .mymetadata file in inside the root of the project.

However, when I compile the application, I ended up with the following errors:

Dec 2, 2009 8:34:38 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile
INFO: validateJarFile(C:\Documents and Settings\tranvu\Workspaces\MyEclipse8\.metadata\.me_tcat\webapps\marketing\WEB-INF\lib\servlet.jar) – jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class

The method put(Object, Object) in the type Map is not applicable for the arguments (int, ConferenceTypeValue)

which is probably related to some missing libraries I did not included in the build path.
Do you have any experience with this error?
By the way, this is the first project I picked up from someone else in Java, so any help to get me started is very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Vu Tran,

We have a lot of white papers and tutorials. I would recommend you to go through the same here – http://www.myeclipseide.com/module-htmlpages-display-pid-7.html
Also there are sample applications available on ME 8. Open MyEclipse 8.0 IDE, from menu options click on MyEclipse > Examples on Demand…This will open “Examples on Demand Browser”. You can click on [install] and add the EOD to your project explorer. Please read README.txt for details regarding the sample application.
