| [vtp-dev] Missing plugins in WAR file |
|
I
currently have an older version of the VTP up and running on Eclipse 3.2.2. It
is running well and I am very happy with it. Now
I am trying to get the newest version running on Eclipse 3.4.2 using the
current Subversion baseline. I can get the desktop to run OK but am having trouble
with the WAR file. When I export the WAR file it appears to export OK but it does
not contain the 3rd party plugins like Axis, etc. so the
deployment fails in Tomcat. I have written a hack to get around this issue, but
it still concerns me that I may be missing a fundamental point here. I
have traced this down to the
org.eclipse.vtp.desktop.projects.core.Exporter.java module. The call to
getBundles() returns a different format now than it did with the previous
version of the VTP that I have running. In the old VTP it returned: update@../../vtp
development/org.eclipse.vtp.framework.util/ However, the call to getBundles() in the new VTP returns an
absolute path format of: reference:file:/C:/Documents and Settings/joht04/My
Documents/Projects/VTP3/vtp development/org.eclipse.vtp.framework.util/ I
can hack my way around this by changing the PlugIn class method install() and
can successfully get the jar files into the WAR file by doing so. But I feel like
I am missing a fundamental point here. I’m assuming someone tested this
and it worked for them. So what am I doing wrong? Thanks
for the help. |
