All,
I have been using the 12/02 integration and the progress has been amazing.
However, I noticed something a little confusing (which may be a feature yet
to be implemented):
One of Eclipse's key benefits has always been zero-weight projects that
allow Eclipse to easily interact with the directory and configuration
structure selected by the development team. In our case, we have a folder
structure as such:
docroot/
WEB-INF/
jsp
images/
css/
lib/
src/
com/.....
I have added a WTP nature for this project and configured docroot as a
webapp. Tomcat started inline beautifully, but nothing attemped to copy the
classes to WEB-INF/classes or the libs to WEB-INF/lib. The classes are no
big deal, as I could simply move the output folder, but the libs are a
somewhat bigger deal. It is not convenient for us to store libraries in
WEB-INF/lib, and in fact, many of those libs are generated in other
projects. Our ant task brings this all together to package a war file, but
with WTP executing directly on the webapp, it seems like a good option would
be to have it automatically copy the contents of all Eclipse output folders
to WEB-INF/classes and all marked dependencies to WEB-INF/lib.
Is this a planned feature and if not, am I simply not using the tool in the
best way?
Congratulations on all the great work so far. It is impressive.
Thanks,
Cris
