Hi all

I am facing one problem in one RCP application. My application is a
server dependent application. Its a simple J2EE application which will
run in Application Server(WASCE), but as per the requirement I need to add
server control in my RCP application also, like user can start the
server , stop the server or can change the server password all those
things. Some thing like generally we do in Server View of Eclipse
IDE (I mean to say when we add the application server in IDE), only
difference will be in eclipse IDE we can add the Server in server view
as per our requirement and multiple times , but in this case there
will be only one server and one ear file deployed in it. Is that
possible in any way to extend that "Server View" in own RCP
application , so that the user user can have some sort of server Admin
control in RCP application or is there any other way to add Server
Admin panel in own RCP application through WASCE OSGi. Please help me
out .
Thanks a lot in advance...

I'd recommend writing your own server view and control panel because the org.eclipse.wst.core depends on org.eclipse.core.runtime and org.eclipse.ui.The problem is it might take a lot of time. The generic server framework is built of top it, so that doesn't help either.

I'm building a similar project, except using Virgo, and I've decided to build my own. Take a look at the WST source-code and extract out the fragments you need to make your project work. More specifically, look at how they start/stop servers, and how they deploy modules to the server.

Hi John,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. yes after your suggestion I also decide to do that in own way with the help of WST code. One more request, do you have any link or URL, where I can get WST Source code. Could you please forward that link to me? Once again thanks a lot.
