Using the TCP/IP Monitor [message #116875]

Is it possible to use the WTP's TCP/IP Monitor without going through
any of the wizards? I'll be teaching a Web Services course in a few
weeks, and would like the students to be able to see some SOAP messages
in transit before they have to get down and code anything. My plan is
to have them use the Web Services Explorer to connect to an xmethods
service or two. I then want to place a TCP monitor in between the
Explorer and the service, so they can see the communication. I could
use the Axis TCP monitor, but since they'll be using Eclipse during the
remainder of the week, I thought it would be ideal if they had one less
tool to learn and use.

Anyway, that's the justification for using the WTP monitor. I've been
able to open the Monitor view using the standard Window/Show View
command, and selecting the monitor from the Debug group. But there
doesn't seem to be a way to add a new listener by hand; all of the
tutorials mention that a listener will be created automatically during
the Web Services Wizard.

Am I missing something obvious?

thanks

Hi Doug,

You can create a new monitor (listener) from the TCP/IP monitor view. In
the TCP/IP monitor view, select the down arrow and click on Properties.
You can then click on Add and create a new TCP/IP monitor.

I tried to follow this instruction but after selecting "Properties"
nothing seems to happen - But I get an error in the log:

Unhandled event loop exception

Hi Jens,

This was (and maybe this is obvious) a bug. It was fixed about a week ago,
so you'll be fine when you move to a newer build. If you want to use this
without going to a new build, just use the Preferences page (Window >
Preferences > Run/Debug > TCP/IP Monitor) to configure the monitor.
