I'm on a team that has an ant build that creates and EAR including a number of WARs and JARs. There are currently no Eclipse projects for the source and the ant build is custom built. I'm trying to move to Eclipse/WTP using the Enterprise Pack for Eclipse.
I've successfully created the corresponding EAR project, dynamic web projects and Java projects. It all compiles (the jsps, xml and js don't validate yet), and I can now build an EAR much like the one built by the existing build. But now I want to demonstrate the benefits of Eclipse's simple debugging.
The team's current development is on a clustered install all on the same localhost with a cluster of one node. I am trying to debug the clustered node. I have been able to create a server of type "Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 PatchSet 1". I was told in another discussion thread that is the one that lines up with WebLogic 10.3.2 (
2209961 I can run this server in debug mode and publish my EAR to the cluster successfully. I can then use the application successfully. But I only know how to start the cluster node on the command line, and then I can't debug it.
I'm questioning a couple things,
1) Can I add another server for the cluster node and start it in debug mode for the workspace metadata?
2) Should I even be developing in a clustered install?
I watched this demo, http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/technology/products/enterprise-pack-for-eclipse/remote/remote.html. It shows how to deploy an application to a remote cluster node, but it doesn't show how to debug it and not remotely. Maybe there are other demos/tutorials that would help me.
Any advice? Thanks in advance,
Scott
