| Prev | Chapter 19. Setting Up Eclipse and Red Hat Web Application Framework | Next |
Now, you will configure Eclipse for developing Red Hat Web Application Framework.
In Eclipse, go to File->New->Project
Select Java Project
Name this project, webapp (or whatever you wish) and select your existing Red Hat Web Application Framework core-platform directory as the project directory.
In the source tab, make sure that Eclipse lists the Red Hat Web Application Framework source directory, src. If it is not there, click Add Existing Folders... to add it. You may also want to add the directory for the Junit test code, test/src.
After adding the existing source folders, click on Create New Folder.... Name this folder _generated. This is where Eclipse will store its JavaCC-generated source files.
Select the Libraries tab once you are presented with the Java Settings dialog box.
Click on Add JARs and select all the JARs under your Red Hat Web Application Framework Project (typically under lib and etc/lib)
Click on Add External JARs and add the following JARs:
$ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes12.zip
$RESIN_HOME/lib/jta-spec JAR
$RESIN_HOME/lib/resin.jar
Click on the Order and Export tab. Select All
Create a build folder for Eclipse on your file system. Then, enter the path to that build folder in the Build output folder input box
Click on the Finish button
To add CMS or other projects to Eclipse, follow the same steps as for Red Hat Web Application Framework, with the following exceptions:
For CMS and other projects that depend on Red Hat Web Application Framework, you do not need to add external JARs. Eclipse will pick up these libraries from Red Hat Web Application Framework.
When you reach the Java Settings Dialog box, select the Projects tab. For CMS, add a dependency upon Red Hat Web Application Framework. For projects that use both Red Hat Web Application Framework and CMS, add a dependency upon both Red Hat Web Application Framework and CMS.
Create build folders for the respective projects.
For each project that you have added, go to the Package Explorer and right-click on it. Then, select Team->Share Project. Select the options for Perforce. Now, you should see a Perforce menu and Perforce options for your source files.
Eclipse uses its own build directories for compiling your source files. However, you will probably still want to use the Red Hat Web Application Framework build system for building and deploying your application. Therefore, you should create a shell script that will do this for you. Then, you may call this shell script to build and deploy Red Hat Web Application Framework from within Eclipse when you are ready to run your application.
Here is a shell-script that I use. You should modify it for your own environment.
#!/bin/bash #setup environment . /etc/profile.d/ccm-config.sh . /etc/profile.d/ccm-devel.sh . /etc/profile.d/ccm-scripts.sh CCM_HOME=/var/ccm-devel/dev/bche/ecm_dev ORACLE_HOME="/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0" JAVA_HOME=/opt/IBMJava2-131 CLASSPATH=$CCM_HOME/core-platform/lib/jaas.jar CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$CCM_HOME/core-platform/lib/jce.jar CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$CCM_HOME/core-platform/lib/sunjce_provider.jar CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$CLASSPATH:$ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes12.zip CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$CCM_HOME/core-platform/etc/lib/iDoclet.jar export CLASSPATH export ANT_OPTS="-Xms128m -Xmx128m" ########## #build ########## #uncomment to make enterprise.init #cd $CCM_HOME #ant make-config #ant make-init #clean cd $CCM_HOME ant clean #build cd $CCM_HOME ant deploy #javadoc cd $CCM_HOME ant javadoc ant deploy-api |
In your ant.properties file, make sure that you have set
compile.debug=on
Once you have created this shell script, in Eclipse go to Run->External Tools->Configure. A dialog box will appear for configuring external tools. Select New. In the Tool Location input box, select your shell script for deploying Red Hat Web Application Framework. Select the options:
Block until tool terminates
