Fw: [wtp-dev] Web Services Explorer functional in WTP 3.0 WST download

[Kathy Chan <kathy@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Lawrence,

Yes.  We had the idea of running
the Web Services Explorer as a WAR outside of Eclipse (bug 89191) but we
had been running into a couple of issues and had not been able to spend
any more effort to further pursue that.  

Back in WTP 2.0, we had added an Eclipse
extension point in the WSE when we implemented RFE 176493 (WSE:  Make
message/transport stack pluggable - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=176493).
 In addition, the move from Tomcat to Jetty requires the WSE to be
packaged as an Eclipse plugin to run in the Jetty engine.  With these
two recent development, running the WSE outside of Eclipse is even harder
to achieve.  So I think we would just be shelfing that idea for now.
 We could revisit that decision if we feel that there is significant
demand from the community for this feature to justify re-opening the issue.

We could further any discussion of this
issue in bug 89191.

Hi Kathy, 

Nice work. An idea was floated a little while ago to host the WS Explorer
on the Eclipse site so it can be used stand-alone off of the WTP site.
This will provide a nice service from WTP and I hope draw some more traffic
to the project. Do you foresee any issues here? (I found bug 89191 [1]
that suggests there may be some issues.) I've opened bug 203134 [2] to
track this request.

Hi, 

We have finished the migration of the Web Services Explorer to Jetty (instead
of using Apache Tomcat).  The Web Services Explorer is now functional
again starting with yesterday's WTP 3.0 drivers (it was not working in
WTP 3.0 M1).  Also, the Web Services Explorer is now fully contained
in the WST project package.  You do not need to get both the JST and
WST package in WTP download to get the Web Services Explorer functionality.
