The EJB sample requires the J2EE classes. As you mentioned we could get them from the containers. However, it's a bit complex as it's different for each container. We need them to compile the EJBs and test classes. Of course, as a user of Cactus, you can point to the j2ee jar provided with your container. Hopefully all this will become much easier soon as the Apache Geronimo project will be providing this jar containing J2EE classes and it will be redistributable... Actually it is already available. However, they have split the different JSR implementation in different jar (one jar per JSR). I've asked on their ML if they could deliver a single jar (can't remember the answer though!). I'll have to check back as this would be the ideal solution. > > I also ask because I've tried building cactus cvs, and the builds require > a > j2ee-1.x.jar ( either 2 or 3 ), but I couldn't find easy directions for > what > to get and where to put it.

I've added the following to the build.properties.sample file: # Note: The J2EE jar can be retrieved from the Sun web site defined below. # Unfortunately, you'll also need to download the whole J2EE SDK just to get # this file. In the future we'll work towards using the JSR jars provided by # the Geronimo project. # - For J2EE 1.3: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/ # - For J2EE 1.2: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.2.1/ > > One final unrelated note.

Hmmm... Strange. It was tested on Eclipse 2.1.0 I think. Unfortunately nobody is currently working on the Eclipse plugin. This is sad as it is a very interesting Cactus integration. Have you been able to have a working Eclipse environment? The "import plug-ins[...]" stuff is simply so that Eclipse resolve dependent plugins used by the Cactus plugins. You can also do that manually.
