Migrating from Sysdeo to WTP [message #51796] Wed, 02 July 2008 19:43 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Our team has been using the Sysdeo Tomcat plugin. This plugin still works in Eclipse 3.4, but there hasn't been any updates in the last year. We started to look at WTP and got overwhelmed by all of the options/pieces/etc. Basically our app starts a servlet and our java clients communicate to the server using persistent http.

Can anyone give us some pointers on migrating to WTP? We currently have a project that contains the web.xml and Servlet class. I think this project needs to be migrated to one of the WTP projects. I would like to avoid changing our directory structure also.

We also use Maven for building our Eclipse projects. Can we build the correct WTP project using Maven also?

Thanks in advance for any help.
Neil Hart

You can use m2eclipse for that [1]. It provides configuratior for WTP
projects that allows to import existing Maven project and configure it
to work in WTP [2]. You can ask further questions in
eclipse.technology.m2e newsgroup or in m2eclipse mailing lists [3].
