Hi Christopher,
The design of the J2EE project-interaction architecture is under
discussion for the first Web Tools release. Some information on our current
state can be found at
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/jst/components/serv er/development/miscdocuments/?cvsroot=WebTools_Project .
We are currently collecting and integrating comments from other WTP
contributors. A refresh of the document should be available within the week.
At a high level, we will encourage the use of a single project per
module because of the advantages that it provides. The single project
metaphor makes it easier to understand the dependencies between modules and
to validate those dependencies in a development environment, which can catch
potential problems before they are deployed into a runtime environment.
However, we are building in flexibility for users who still have a need for
a multiple-modules-per-project metaphor due to preference or legacy systems.
Thank you for your participation.
Kind Regards,
Michael D. Elder
