Thank you, Angel.

 

I have looked through the available documentation. I would like my project type to be deployable as a dynamic web module within the existing web server plugins (e.g. tomcat). It appears that the trick is to ensure that my plugin can produce a moduleType of “jst.web”. I can see how to go about registering a module factory, but I cannot see how to actually create a module that meets the specifications of “jst.web”.  Ultimately, I need to provide some structure that tells it what the path is, where the web.xml file is, etc. Is there an example out there I can use to guide me or can someone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks,

Troy,

There is some information about RoS here: http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/server/runOnServer.html, it might not be a complete set of what you are looking for, but is a good place to start.

Other API information for extensions points is provided through the eclipse infocenter at: http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?nav=/36_5

Hello,

Is there any documentation for folks developing plugins that make use of the
WTP architecture? So far, I am restricted to walking through the J2EE plugin
source in an attempt to decipher what it does and why it does it.

I am trying to implement 'Run on Server' for my custom project type so that
it can deploy to web containers (e.g. Tomcat). It appears to require
knowledge of VirtualResources, Components and IModules. I cannot seem to
find effective documentation on what these are and how to use them. Any
pointers are appreciated. Even 'RTFM' is appreciated if you can tell me
where the 'M' is.

Thank you,
