Importing quickstarts into IDE

[andi.scharfstein]

As a complete beginner when it comes to ESB implementations in general and SwitchYard in particular, I though it might be a good idea to take a closer look at the quickstarts to get a feeling for how SY projects are supposed to be laid out. I installed JBDS 5 and tried creating a fresh SY project, then importing an existing quickstart ("bean-service") into the project [EDIT: I'd like to add here for future reference that the "correct" way to import the quickstarts is to do "Import -> Existing Maven Project". No fiddling around with SwitchYard Projects, it will get recognized correctly after import]. I get something that looks vaguely right, but still has some errors (namely, XML problems). It seems to be some kind of namespace resolution thing, this is one characteristic error message:

Description	Resource	Path	Location	Type
cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'implementation.bean'. One of '{"http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200912":documentation, "http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sca/200912":implementation}' is expected.	switchyard.xml	/switchyard-example/bean-service/target/classes/META-INF	line 12	XML Problem

Is there a better alternative to work with the quickstart projects or did I do something wrong with the import? If all else fails, any hints on how to fix the above configuration error manually would be appreciated as well.

Thanks in advance

Hey Andi,

Please uncheck "Honour all xml schema locations" in workspace preferences under XML->XML Files->Validation.  See the "XSD Catalog" section of the documentation here: https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/SWITCHYARD/Eclipse

Hope that helps.

Best,

Rob

Rob beat me to it. :-)  Aside from the checkbox he referenced, make sure you follow the steps in the tooling install guide as the SwitchYard tooling does not come with JBDS 5 by default.

Thanks a lot, at first there was no difference (even after revalidation), but after deleting the test project and importing it again, everything works exactly as advertised!
