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.
