Hello,

After a laborious day of uninstalling, re-installing, washing,
rinsing, repeating, I finally have my eclipse environment setup with
WTP, Java 1.5 and the FDS Plugin Project Peter Martin created. The
directory structure seems to make more sense to me, but have raised a
couple of questions in my brain - some of which are general Flex /
FDS, others are specific to WTP / Tomcat implementation:

1) Without using Peter's FDS Plugin, what is the easiest way to deploy
a FDS-enabled project as http://localhost:8080/ or
http://localhost:8080/ProjectName/? Every example I've been able to
find has it coming out of the flex.war as
http://localhost:8080/Flex/ProjectName/


2) When deploying using FDS compile on server option, how can you
configure your server to acknowledge
http://localhost:8080/HelloWorld/Main.mxml when
http://localhost:8080/HelloWorld/ is accessed? Default .mxml
parameters? I'd figure to use the index.htm with presentation similar
to the template when using a non-FDS enabled version but unclear where
to point the embed items to.


3) FDS Plugin Specific - How *should* one break down their content
w.r.t the directory structure provided? I was able to create a simple
sample (one event class, one valueobject, two component .mxml views
called from the Main.mxml. The only way I was able to get any to work
was with everything nested within sub-directories of the WebContent
folder. I'd expect I could use the [source_path]user_classes for .swc
but it didn't seem to play nice with pure .as files.

4) Same question as #3 but expand your example answer for a
Cairngorm-ified project.

5) How to turn all this into a deployable .war or .ear file on a
non-development machine? This is more a general java question but
figured I'd press my luck like that old tv show and make it a 5 pack
o' questions.

Thx,
Jamie
