I am trying to workout using maven so I tried creating an erxapplication
using:
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeArtifactId=erxapplication-archetype \
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.wocommunity \
-DarchetypeVersion=3.0 -DaskForDefaultPropertyValues=true
It beautifully created an application with just:
build.properties
pom.xml
src
woproject
after importing it into eclipse I selected the application.java file and
debug as woapplication. I received:
HOTSWAP AGENT: 22:18:35.982 INFO (org.hotswap.agent.HotswapAgent) -

WOApplication in WOLips?
