[wtp-dev] Generic Server Runtime Functionality
|
List members,
I am trying to add tooling support for Red5 which is an Flash Server. In particular, I'm trying to add Server runtime support to our application server. For a quick screencast of the functionality, please see here:
http://www.infrared5.com/2008-05-31_1618.swf
Here is some information about my plugin. The Server runtime is configured using the generic server definition which uses a server definition file and an Ant build file. I'm not sure if I've chosen the correct implementation. I think that I might have been better off using a custom server runtime. However I understand that it requires more effort which I'm willing to do if I can't fulfill all of the plugin requirements.
Requirements:
- deploy and run the application
- debug the application (like Tomcat, etc...)
- start and stop the server
What I have working currently:
- deploy and run the application
- start and stop the server
I have a few questions:
- Is this the correct list to post these questions to?
- Can a generic server have debug support, by clicking "debug on server"?
- The application server does have "Remote Java Application" debug support using jdwp. Is this how the other server runtimes debug their applications (servers like tomcat, etc...)
- Where can I find the source for the Tomcat server plugin source code? I've seen the glassfish source, but haven't looked too much into it yet.
- Is there any place where I can find more information on custom server runtime plugin development? I've checked a lot of resources but it seems many just talk about the generic server definition support like I currently have.
Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. I look forward to any tips/pointers etc.. that may help me add debugging support to my plugin.
