This may not be what you require but I dont use Ant or Seam tools at all.

I use
MyEclipse

Create an EJB3 project and Map the correct files to thew correct "sub" projects (Ear, Jar and War).

I simply tell MyEclipse where the JBoss Server is and hit 1 button to run the server (the project is automgically deployed for me by MyEclipse using something called exploded deployment).

The server output (console) is in a MyEclipse window and I can just add in breakpoints and step through the running code within MyEclipse.

I could not be simpler.


However; Ant is IDE Neutral so you are going to stuck with Ant from the Seam team as Ant makes sense (I even use it to build the demos to find which files to move where)!

It Really COULD NOT be easier... I very rarely re-start the server either as any code cahnges are to the "running code"... so you just make a change to the code and carry on.. VERY useful with your JSF pages!

Your posts are rather offensive...

I've been using seam-gen (command line) along with Red Hat Developer Studio since it went beta, and I have cranked out several web sites in the process. Perhaps you can try to be a bit more constructive with your posts - that way, if you solve any issues, we all benefit.

Yes, i never use seam-tools too.
Now, i only use Ant.
But how to edit FACET? JBPM? Yes, they can be written by hand too.
But you will waste more time because of writting errors,etc.

As we know, we cann't delete files such as web.xml(in exploded war file) from jboss. So,at last, how to deploy EAR as EXPLODED file and JAR,WAR as archived files automatically???
Netbeans5.5 can do it!!!!
Why cann't JBoss Tools or RHDS?

I have never tried using seam tools, but I am looking for well designed reusable code. My facelets templates are many levels deep. I write every thing by hand and prefer it that way.

It gives me better understanding and control. I would only be interested in drag and drop for simple prototyping.
~~~~~~~~~yes, you are right. Netbeans, JBossTool can do it now. But why not get better?

Seam gen sets up a working project or just take one of the example and modify.
~~~~~~~~~~~I agree with you, I never use Seam-gen, too simple.

I used seam gen to make a seam 2.0 project and then used the seamdisc example to integrate trinidad.
~~~~~~Ha, ha, me too!!!

Tony maybe never come back.
He is a superman, i hope i can become superman too.

Tony could you please post a tutorial on how you do all that? I dont have myeclipse i would rather try doing that using redhat studio.
~~~~~~~~~yes, I love RHDS too!!! But it has too many bugs, and now is trial version. You should not expect too much of it, or you will be hurt deeply just like me.


Thanks.

Me too.


When i am free, I will dig the whole Jboss forum about seam.

If you have time, I would greatly appreciate a tutorial as well.

I agree with supernova. The tools that exist today pretty much satisfy my needs. The only thing I really need from a seam tool is to generate the finicky project structure.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~This is what i want too. Drag and drop is good too. You should try it, it can easy your job!

before I drop dead

haha!

Please bear in mind that RHDS and JBossTools are only in beta at the moment. If you aren't willing to work with the development team and provide feedback about bugs but looking for a supported development environment that just works, you're probably best of waiting for the release of RHDS early this autumn - it comes with the JBoss EAP and should work ootb with it.
