Re: [rap-dev] Broken Link on Eclipse RAP Developer Guide

Hi  Dominik,

WAR Products tooling is not maintained for a long time and it's not compatible with the latest Eclipse Platform.

I would suggest to build the application WAR file with Tycho like our RAP examples. [1]

Hi Ivan,

thank you for your response. Sad to hear that, that document cannot be found anymore.

I have a question: Is the deployment per "Servlet Container" still supported? If you follow this deploymen guide [1] and try to create the rapdemo.warproduct an error happens, as seen in the attached "Error_when_creating_warproduct.png" screenshot. The mentioned WAR Products tooling at the beginning is also archived, as seen here [2]. Project Kepler was archived in 2008 and project Libra in 2022.

There is also an open issue [3]. That happens because the created .warproduct is empty and when Eclipse tries to open it, the error happens.

Tried both on Eclipse 2023-09 (4.29) and Eclipse 2024-12 (4.34).

Hi Dominik, 

Thank you for pointing us to the broken link. The PHP support on the Eclipse servers has been discontinued since the beginning of the new year. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to find a replacement link for the requested content. To avoid a confusion, we will remove the broken link from RAP developer's guide.

Best regards, 

Ivan

Subject: [rap-dev] Broken Link on Eclipse RAP Developer Guide

Hello,

I'm current reading https://eclipse.dev/rap/developers-guide/deployment.html  and noticed that the following link is outdated and no longer working:

https://www.eclipse.org/equinox/server/http_in_container.php

Could you please update it?
I would also appreciate it if you could provide me with the correct link in the meantime, as I was unable to find the document via Google.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Dominik
