Hello,

Is there any way to use Embedded Tomcat (tomcat server embedded in one of
the plugins) via Generic Server Support? Thanks.

Although I have not tried it, I can not think of any reason that Generic
server framework fail to support it.
From the Generic server' s perspective whether the server is embedded
or not makes no difference, you just need to teach it how to
start/stop/publish.
Please let me know if you try this.

Thanks. Then let me rephrase my question. What exactly one should teach how
to start/stop/publish and how?

I tried doing this in Eclipse 2.1 and barely got Tomcat 4.0 to work, but
got hopelessly stuck in classloading problems and commons-logging and
other conflicts with Tomcat 5.0. I think I traced this down to problems
in the way Tomcat did its classloading, breaking various chaining rules to
accomodate its own logging conflicts and was unable to encapsulate this
inside Eclipse. (Sorry I don't remember details) YMMV. Perhaps the new
OSGI classloading will help somehow?

That said, I think it would be a wonderful feature if you can get it to
work!

I've managed to get an "embedded" websphere working in another context
here using the new Eclipse-BuddyPolicy. I couldn't get it working before
w/o that new feature in 3.1M7

This may apply to tomcat also :)?

Cheers,

Hi Adam,
Actually, I also got Tomcat 4 working in Eclipse 3.1 with some problems
(like it did not want to load application's jar files, but worked with
application's class files) but am stuck with Tomcat 5's classloading issues
too.
