Seam + Maven2 + Ganymede + JBoss Tools + WTP sample project

[rmoore2112]

Here is a sample Maven2 project structure that provides the following capabilities:

• Hot Deployment using WTP (set publishing to auto or manually publish in the IDE)


• Linked source code in the Eclipse IDE for all third party libraries (if available in the Maven repositories)


• Seam components are availabile in the context menus in various JBoss Tools editors (visual editor for example)


• Eclipse class path references Maven2 repository


• Upgrade Seam minor releases by changing a variable

The setup takes some time, but it is worth the effort because:

• The project source remains in a native Maven2 structure and can be seamlessly integrated with a build server i.e. Hudson.


• There is no need to run Maven2 targets in Eclipse, WTP handles deployment via the publish feature.

Required Software:

1. Eclipse Ganymede 3.4 (with WTP installed)


2. Maven 2.0.9


3. JBoss Tools Plugin 3 CR


4. JBoss 4.2.3 Application Server

Setup:

1. Install all software above


2. Use sample project as a guide to configure your specific projects / artifacts


3. Create a workspace in eclipse


4. Create a WTP server reference (that references the installed JBoss application server)


5. Configure workspace path and server reference in sample-proj/pom.xml


6. Execute mvn eclipse:eclipse from the sample-proj directory


7. Import all projects into your Eclipse workspace


8. Build workspace in Eclipse


9. Right click on the EAR project and select Run-As..Run on Server ... and select the configured JBoss Server.
