LOMBOZ J2EE plugin usage and problems [message #119401] Fri, 29 August 2003 14:41 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hey,

I am trying to use the Lomboz J2EE plugin from objectlearn. Those guys
have done a lot of work and it looks pretty amazing.

However, I have encountered what look like to be some annoying bugs
(finally worked around with some pains). Is the plugin widely used? I
would be happy to discuss its workings with some other users before
submitting any potentially superfluous bug reports to the devs.

In creating a EJB, following their HelloWorld tutorial, it seems Lomboz
does not add any classpath information on its own if a custom Java
perspective is used. This was the first of the glitches I found, has
anyone found anything like this?

Best,

dani++

PS: I am using the latest release (not M*) on MacOSX Jaguar, VM 1.4.1.

The Lomboz plugin is good, but it is quite finicky. Their tutorial does not
work well with Eclipse 2.1.1 which is a major bummer. I cannot tell you how
many people are using it. But correct me if I am wrong, judging from the
very low activities on their forum, it can't be a lot of people using it.

An alternative is MyEclipse (myeclipseide.com) plugin. It is a J2EE plugin
that costs only $30/year. With my limited knowledge, it appears to be about
the same as Lomboz. But it beats Lomboz hands down with their excellent
technical support. I usually get an answer or solution in less than half a
day, where Lomboz does not have an official support team and you may or may
not get any help on their forum.

I don't know about you, but I have projects with tight deadlines up to my
eyebrows. The last thing I want is uncertainty on my development tool. I
don't have the luxury of time to figure it out.

Hope this helps.

simon.

Dear Simon,

Thanks for your response. It seems that LOMBOZ activity is quite low,
which is sad. But as you state, we are all up to our eyebrows in tight
deadlines. I had heard of MyEclipse before (the site is down for
maintenance now).

I am just currently evaluating Eclipse and getting the hang of it.
Sadly, my company is "standarized" in JBuilder, so they are not going to
pay for a different (even $30/year) IDE. So for tinkering on pet
projects at home, I think paying makes little sense. I suppose it is
back to plain Eclipse and XDoclet for experimentation.

Anyway, thanks for the info, it clarifies matters greatly.


Best,

dani++

Hi Daniel,
I am having similar problems. Actually first symptom is that the
ejbGeneratel.xml was not created in chapter3 after going through the ejb
creation wizard... Any tips would be appreciated..
