Thomas,
Yes,
I believe we cited both JSR 77 and JSR 88 in our plans. We need to
start making
progress on those.

For deployment, I think “JSR 88: J2EE Application
Deployment” is the way to go.
It defines a standard way of deploy/undeploy/start/stop an
application. Looking at the expert groups, the momentum is there.
However, I haven’t heard many vendors have implemented
them in their release version. When it is ready, we certainly want to
help on
getting the control and ui in WTP.
I believe debugging and profiling support doesn’t
require much modification.
I am not sure there is a defacto way of using JMX for remote
starting and stopping of server. Maybe the assumption is that the
server is
always up and running during the development.

Gerry,
Tim Deboer is the authoritative source on this topic. However, the
current
support does not require JMX. You can use any proprietary means of
controlling
the server. Our intension is to move towards the JCP standards in this
area
such as JSR 77. Are you interesting in working on that?
Aside from publishing, you should support debugging and profiling. You
should
also be able to restart the server or a specific application, and do
the usual
config such as adding or deleting applications.

Arthur,
Thanks for the response - I do understand that a remote server would
require a
controller of some kind like JMX to manage it. More specifically, I
am
looking to find out what services, if any, the WTP framework supplies
for
remote servers. If there are services, how do I plugin to them?
What are the implied requirements for "supporting" a remote host?
Clearly publishing to it is a must-have as there would be little
point
without it. What else?
Thanks,
Gerry Kessler

Gerry,
A remote server is a server that is located on another machine. You
need some
type of controller on that machine, or use JMX.

Tim deBoer posted the following in the newsgroup recently:
" The WTP
server framework fully supports remote servers, however none of the
current server types that have been contributed to WTP do. There are no
immediate plans for remote server support, but contributions may appear
in
later versions."
Could someone please clarify what is meant by "supports remote
servers"? What does the framework provide? What would the
server provider be expected to provide? Documentation?
Thanks,
Gerry Kessler
