-- hi list,
i'm a bit lost with an issue concerning the eclipse 3.x / g1.0
integration
using the eclipse WTP subproject. this seems _not_ to be an eclipse
but a
geronimo issue as the geronimo eclipse plugin is developed in the
geronimo
project context.
over the last few days, i tried numerous combinations of the
eclipse IDE (3.2M4,
3.1) and the WTP (1.5M4, 1.0, I200602022035) on both win xp and
linux and did
always run into trouble when attempting to deploy a stateless
session EJB.
question:
does anybody out there have a working eclipse geronimo plugin that
is capable of
generating EJB boilerplate code as well as deploy that stuff to a
geronimo
instance?
background:
observations:
eclipse 3.2M4 + WTP 1.5M4:
- xdoclet generator will not generate boilerplate code
automagically, manually
seleting 'run xdoclet' will do. nevertheless, problems arise in the
'.JETEmitters' temp project where various imports can not be
resolved (e.g.
org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.ejb.annotation). deployment to a local
geronimo instance
does not work as no artefact is being generated at all.
3.2x and WTP 1.5 is not yet supported. The plugin has not yet
migrated to this driver. But the above problem sounds like a WTP bug.
eclipse 3.1 + WTP 1.0:
- xdoclet generator generates boilerplate code as expected.
nevertheless,
deployment to a local geronimo fails for the reason that there is a
validation
error with the 'openejb.jar.xml' deploymentplan (missing
'enterprise-beans'
element...).
Yes, if this element isn't specified deployment will fail. This
technically should be fixed by openejb and this element should be
made optional. As a work-around I will go ahead and implement
GERONIMODEVTOOLS-02, so in the stubbed out openejb plan this element
is included.
conclusions (may be wrong):
i can track down both problems to the eclipse geronimo plugin. the
first issue
(path trouble) may or may not be addressed by the re-opened
GERONIMODEVTOOLS-55
JIRA entry whilst the latter one may be filed under
GERONIMODEVTOOLS-02.
my attempt to compile the eclipse plugin from the latest SVN
sources failed
yesterday for the reason that the build process has not yet been
migrated to
maven2 and i did not yet had the time to re-install an appropriate
maven1
environment on my box.
i'm posting this to the 'user' list because i think it is rather a
'user' than a
developer issue. my best guess developer contact would be sachin
patel to
comment on this.
cheers, olle
