Hi;
First of, the webtools project has brought an Eclipse oldtimer, who
'detoured' to Netbeans 3.6, back to Eclipse (applause). The initial
contribution looks pretty elaborate for starters. Nice. (BTW, I also
gave MyEclipse a shot, but alas they do not support j2ee 1.4 yet.)
Anyhow...
I installed the ibm features/plugins and it seems like all went ok. I
did NOT install the objectweb plugin. (Does this overlap the ibm
contrib, or does it complement it? Should I install Objectweb as well?)
Sorry for the deviation, back to my main question (finally!).
With the j2ee sdk from Sun, I also dl'd the Sun Appserver 8, which I
have up and running ok. How do I specify this server for my ejb's ear's
as well as servlets/jsp's?
Also, what is meant by "J2EE RUNTIME Server", and to what directory do I
need to point it to, in order for this to work.
Thank you much;
-nat

Thank you much, indeed its working now. (except it doesn't generate
local interfaces for the ejb.)
Fwiw, since the Sun server comes with pretty good packaging and
deployment tools, gui and cmd line based, I can make do (for now)
without direct support for it from Eclipse.
Thanks again;
