I haven't had time to look much at Tomcat 6.0.x yet. The first step to patch the org.eclipse.jst.server.tomcat.core plug-in to accept Tomcat 6 as if it were Tomcat 5.5 would be to modify the verfiyInstall.properties file and remove "common/i18n" from the list of what it checks for in 5.5. At that point, the plug-in will probably accept an Tomcat version 4.0.x or later as if it was Tomcat 5.5. You could then try to see if the rest of the plug-in will work as is using Tomcat 6.0.x as a 5.5 server. If I get a chance, I'll give this a quick try in the near future and see what happens.
Cheers, Larry P.S. If you are using the SDK version of WTP or use Update to get the source, it is fairly easy to patch a plug-in. > -----Original Message----- > From: Henri Gomez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, November 14, 2006 9:58 AM > To: Tomcat Developers List > Subject: Re: Eclipse WTP and Tomcat 6.0.x ? > > Larry, how could we lure the current WTP 1.5.2 to use a Tomcat 6.x ? > > 2006/11/14, Larry Isaacs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Regrettably, my day job didn't allow for much change in WTP > from 1.0.x > > to 1.5.x, beyond sporadic bug fixing.
