Developing EJB with JBoss Eclipse and JBossTools

[janmueller]

Hello,

I'm making my first steps with EJB-Development on JBoss.
I managed to Create a Session-Bean and a Client, but it seemed quite complicated to me. In my opinion the IDE should give me more support.
Is there a good guide/tutorial on HowTo use The JBossTools?

And how to deploy a EJB-Project as a jar-File without always having to "Export -> EJB-Jar File ...." ?

Thanks in advance
Jan

JBDS is commercial, but it's just a combination of open source plugins.
so you could assemble it yourself

JBDS provides nice Hot Deployment
