Hi
I’ve seen an installation of a friend of mine with the “Web Tools Platform Project”. He has two different web projects (with its own web root and WEB-INF directory) on drive X: and debugs both of them with the same Tomcat located on drive D:. He has two server configuration where he can create for each of the projects its own Server.xml.
Ist there any way to configure something similar in MyEclipse?Thanks in advance for your help
Currently there isn’t, we are aware of this shortcomming and the need for decoupling projects from Servers and are going to introduce that with full flexiproject support in 5.0.
Keep in mind that MyEclipse is built ontop of the WTP, so whatever they release we will build ontop of and extend with enhanced tools, bug fixes and other enhancements that our users want (usually better integration with other plugins).
Thanks for your answer. What does it mean “ull flexiproject support in 5.0” will it be in MyEclipse Release 5.0, do you can imagine when this is coming out?
Yes we are targetting the MyEclipse 5.0 release for the flexiproject support, it has been on our backburner to do it for a year and a half now but it is such a fundamentally huge change we will need a long release cycle to get it in. We are shooting for our 5.0 release in Q4, no more specific times than that right now, too many unknowns (and 4.0 isn’t out the door yet either 😉
Is the same answer true for wanting to deply my app in a tomcat not started from MyEclipse?
I couldn’t get tomcat started as the user who runs eclipse, so am still running tomcat as root.
I can of course use an ANT script to do the deploying rather than MyEclipses tool, but would be better if I could do it with MyEclipse.Gnome,
This is where the use of “Custom Location” deployments from the deploy tool come in handy, although if Tomcat is installed as root, you may have write permission problsm deploying the project out to the tomcat webapps dir… assuming you don’t have any problems, then just create a new deployment for the project, when you select the location, hit the dropdown and select “Custom Location” and specify <tomcat dir>\webapps\<some dir you want> where “some dir you want” is likely the name of your webcontext, like “myapp”.
