Hi all,
I'm a newbie to Eclipse; just loaded the 3.1.1 release and loaded up many features including ECF. I wanted to try some collaboration with a co-worker, but we do not seem to have the Java-application for the server loaded [there are no applications listed at all]. We're trying to follow the documentation on this, but not getting anywhere. Any clues as to what we are not doing?
Thanks,
John

The generic collaboration server is installed as part of the 'server
feature'. Let's assume eclipse is installed in <eclipsehome>. After
install of all ECF 0.4.0, the ECF server feature is in:
<eclipsehome>/features/org.eclipse.ecf.serverfeature_0.4.0
There are other ECF features listed in <eclipsehome>/features, and also
installed are the plugins, all in <eclipsehome>/plugins/org.eclipse.ecf.*
The generic server can be launched as a *java application* (outside of
Eclipse) by launching the (windows or unix) shell script available in
<eclipsehome> /features/org.eclipse.ecf.serverfeature_0.4.0/bin/startserve r.[cmd|sh]
The shell scripts are currently pretty hacked up...as they assume that
the current working directory is
<eclipsehome>/features/org.eclipse.ecf.serverfeature_0.4.0/bin
But if you go to this directory, and launch startserver.[cmd|sh] from a
DOS or Unix shell (assuming 'java' on path), this should start an
instance of the ECF generic server that has the following ID:
ecftcp://localhost:3282/server
Note you can change this ID by adding a command line parameter:
e.g.: startserver.sh ecftcp://myhost.lucent.com:3282/group
NOTE: If you install the ECF plugins somewhere on disk *without*
Eclipse present all of the above should still work...the generic server
application doesn't require Eclipse itself at all (for example, we
simply download/install the ECF 0.4.0 'all' zip, and then run this
application on the servers that we have going. Java/JDK is required, of
course.
Also...if you want to connect to a test generic server you can use one
of these as well:
ecftcp://ecf1.osuosl.org:3282/server
ecftcp://ecf1.osuosl.org:3282/group1
ecftcp://ecf1.osuosl.org:3282/group2
John we are working on improving the install and config for the ECF
generic server right now, and so this will all likely be changing over
the next few months. So if you have ideas and ability to help please
let us know...
Scott

That's the ticket...thanks again!
One follow-up...
you showed an example server invocation as:
startserver ecftcp://host.lucent.com:port/group
I assume 'group' can be anything I'd like, but what if I want >1 group? List them as multiple args? Separate invocations of the server [binding issues on the port?]?
[sorry for being dense]
Thanks again,
John
