OpenEJB Eclipse plugin not working

[recursion <ba...@yahoo.com>]

Hello,

I am trying to integrate my OpenEJB server into Eclipse. I follow the steps
described here: 
http://openejb.apache.org/installation.html, but i get the following error
from Eclipse : 

"No repository found at http://people.apache.org/~jgallimore/update-site/"


Any ideas how to make things work ?

I am using OpenEJB 3.1.1 and Eclipse Ganymede - latest from the Eclipse
download site.

Hi Jonathan,

I can only see one single jar file at the specified update site! It is just
a feature, and Eclipse cannot recoginze it as an update site (for instance,
there is no site.xml descriptor).

However, i took a look at the Dev OpenEJB forum, and found a link to a file
called openejb-eclipse-plugin-1.0.2-SNAPSHOT-updatesite.zip and it worked
for me! I set it as an update site of type 'archive', and everything went
OK. So i have already tested myself the Eclipse plug-in and it's really
great!

Congratulations for the good work! Here is what i see:

This is very different compared with the content of the zip archive...

Regards,

recursion.

The Eclipse plugin sounds like what you're after, we provide a WTP server
adapter for deploying, starting and stopping the standalone server, and few
other bits of functionality such as generating annotations from a
ejb-jar.xml/openejb-jar.xml and a error checking for the @DependsOn
annotation for EJB3.1.

The update site seems to be working for me, I'm just installing the plugin
from it now. Are you able to see anything at that URL in a browser (you
should see a light blue table with a link to org.apache.openejb.feature -
1.0.2<http://people.apache.org/%7Ejgallimore/update-site/features/org.apache.openejb.feature_1.0.2.jar>)?
If you don't see anything I'll try and upload a zip you can unzip in a
folder under eclipse/dropins on another server.

Thank you David!

I definitely liked the tutorial and enjoyed your presentation.
It's really great, and it depicts some tricky details that would otherwise
cause some trouble if one has to discover them the hard way.

(funny mistake at the end with the time span of the junit tests)

I was actually looking for the OpenEJB Eclipse plug-in, which is a kind of
server adapter. It is related to the usage of OpenEJB as a standalone
server, the adapter just automates starting and stopping the server, as well
as deploying applications on it from the IDE with just a click. Eclipse in
its J2EE variant comes with several server adapters, including JBoss, OC4J,
JOnAS, etc.

Unfortunately, currently this plug-in is not available, although i found an
article about using it, and it definitely seems that this plug-in exists and
works! :) I would very much like to test it personally.

I found an OEP (OpenEJB Eclipse Plugin) JIRA site, and reported an issue
about this problem. I hope that Jon is going to take a look at it some day,
it's really a pity that this great plug-in is actually unavailable.

Jon is the real OpenEJB plugin expert, so I'll defer to him.

As far as using just plain OpenEJB with Eclipse, I made this tutorial  
at the tail end of last week -- about to put it up in out site and blog.

Not sure if this is exactly what you're after.
