Re: [wtp-dev] Change Context Root

[Udo Walker <udo.walker@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Carl,

sorry for using this mailing list.

But your answer still does not help me.

I tried already EarArtifactEdit.setServerContextRoot(IProject 
earProject, String contextRoot), but I always got a NPE. Probably I did 
it the wrong way to obtain a reference to EarArtifactEdit. But how can I 
do it correctly? Where can I find an example or documentation? Is the 
API public?

The first version you mentioned does not exist.  I cannot find the class 
J2EEProjectUtilities in the public APIs. I found it later in an internal 
package! Should I use that?

For me there is still the question how to solve my problem. :(

With regards,

Udo
