Activity Monitor under Eclipse-GWT Development mode?

[umesh.hansla]

Hi all,

I was wondering if it is possible to launch the Errai Activity Monitor under the GWT (2.0.3) Development mode from Eclipse 3.5 ? I've added the VM arg "-Derrai.tools.bus_monitor_attach=true" to the launch config for Development mode but get no window that shows up. My application runs under JBoss AS 5.1.0 with GWT Development talking to it. I'm using Errai 1.1-M2.

Any way I can manually launch the monitor and attach it to the running server?

Thanks!

sincerely,

umesh

Do you have the errai-tools.jar in your classpath?

I was trying to run monitor from within the eclipse but with no luck. I have errai-tools.jar in the ear/lib folder. So I have put at the end of the jboss run.conf following lines :

#Run errai monitor
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Derrai.tools.bus_monitor_attach=true"

Now console starts every time when I start jboss. This of course works when you use development mode with noserver flag.

Hi Heiko,

Looks like I got stuck between m2eclipse and jboss. :S Although I updated my pom for the dependency and it added it to my classpath, my MANIFEST.MF file did not have the errai-tools reference. Fixed that and now I see the monitor pop up!

Thanks!

Hi Marcin,

Thanks for the tip! However, you can also pass that VM argument via the launch configuration dialog box under VM Arguments. I have JBoss Tools for Eclipse installed and double clicking on my JBoss server opens up a JBoss Configuration page. That has the launch configuration option in it.
