Preface

This document was written using Sun JDK 1.4.2, Eclipse 3.0.1 and MyEclipse 3.8.2. All screenshots are based upon the default user interface settings for Eclipse, MyEclipse, and Windows XP.

Introduction

MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench provides developers the ability to seamlessly deploy, execute, and test their MyEclipse J2EE applications to any of over 20 different application servers including:

• JBoss
• Jetty
• Jonas
• JRun
• Oracle
• Orion
• Resin
• Sun
• Tomcat
• WebLogic Server
• WebSphere

MyEclipse interacts with a local application server instance through an application server connector. Each connector is configured through the MyEclipse preferences and provides integrated controls that allow you to:

• Start an application server in Run or Debug mode
• Monitor application server operation via stdout log messages which is redirected to the MyEclipse console
• Test deployed applications through your custom test client or web browser
• Perform hot-swap Java debugging of deployed application code
• Perform JSP source-level debugging on JSR-045 compliant application servers such as Tomcat 5.x
• Stop the application server

Requirements

The requirements for MyEclipse application server support are:

• MyEclipse application server connectors require direct access to application server installation. Therefore the application server must be installed on the file system of the machine that MyEclipse will operate. Note: MyEclipse does not currently support application deployment to remote application servers.

• To support JSP source level debugging, your application server must support JSR-045 specification for debugging of non-Java source code.

• Hot-swap debugging requires that your application server be launched with a JDK 1.4.x virtual machine. If you are working with an older application server that requires JDK 1.3 debugger, breakpoints will be honored but hot-swapping of modified code in your MyEclipse workbench will not be possible since 1.3 JVM's do not support the JPDA specification.

• Application server connectors should be configured to launch their respective application server with a full JDK (javac included) environment. Do not use a JRE. The full JDK is required because it provides a Java compiler which is required by all application server to compile JSP pages or dynamically process and deploy EJBs. A full JDK for your platform can be downloaded from Sun Microsystems at http://java.sun.com/j2se/downloads/index.html

• Only MyEclipse J2EE project types (Enterprise, EJB, and WEB) may be deployed with the MyEclipse Deployment Service. MyEclipse does not support direct deployment of basic Java projects.
