Our application has a lot of forms. We want to display and post those forms in eclipse browser but we need plugin that will be HTTP Server (Servlets, JSP).

So we create a feature like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<feature
      id="com.hertz.as.servlet.module"
      label="Module Feature"
      version="1.0.0"
      provider-name="HERTZ">
   <description url="http://www.example.com/description">
      [Enter Feature Description here.]
   </description>
   <copyright url="http://www.example.com/copyright">
      [Enter Copyright Description here.]
   </copyright>
   <license url="http://www.example.com/license">
      [Enter License Description here.]
   </license>
   <plugin
         id="org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="org.eclipse.equinox.http.servlet"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="org.eclipse.equinox.http.registry"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="org.apache.commons.logging"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="org.mortbay.jetty"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="com.hertz.as.server"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="javax.servlet"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
   <plugin
         id="org.eclipse.osgi.services"
         download-size="0"
         install-size="0"
         version="0.0.0"
         unpack="false"/>
</feature>


Now we want To use this feature in our RCP Application but the we don't know how to start the JETTY Server from our RCP Application. We tried by activator. When we run this in OSGI Envioment Server is starting and working but our application can't start so how to solve this problems. How to write plugin to our application with HTTP Server inside to handle requests from eclipse browser on localhost.

We solve this problem but it was some time ago. The project was cancelled by the way. I remember that this was very hard to configure. I try to post You a solution in few days. Take care.

Hi nodachi
I don't know if Jetty has a servlet engine. My only experience with this is IBM's implementation of the RCP (Lotus Expeditor). This has a built-in servlet (and portlet) engines and was easy to use. This was 2-4 years ago now. The drawback is that it's not free, and comes with a whole load of goodies, that whilst nice to have, are probably surplus to requirements.
If Jetty does support servlets, then ask again and I'll have a peep at old code to see if I can offer any clues. It might be that IBM created code to process the extensions it provided for using the servlet engine. I can't remember the details although I use it a lot on one project.
Regards, John
