[jira] [Commented] (FINERACT-918) Document how to run Fineract in IDEs like Eclipse & IntelliJ - great for easy debugging!

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-918?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17103785#comment-17103785 ] 

Michael Vorburger commented on FINERACT-918:
--------------------------------------------

Running the OpenJPA Enhancement through Fineract's (already existing) Gradle task to me sounds like a great pragmatic way to go about this! Who wants to try that, and raise a PR to the README with a few lines documenting this?

Agreed to stay away from OpenJPA's runtime enhancement. That didn't work entirely well back in the Kodo days (I was one of its first customers!), and I suspect is still trouble today. PS: I think I actually wrote https://openjpa.apache.org/enhancement-with-eclipse.html myself, many, many moons ago, believe it or not.

As for EclipseLink see FINERACT-849, and FINERACT-703 re. Hibernate (TL;DR No Go due to LGPL).

> The goal of this issue is to be able to easily run (something like) {{org.apache.fineract.ServerApplication}} directly within the IDE.
> While Spring Boot itself will launch just fine in-IDE, the main issue in Fineract is that it fails due to (missing) OpenJPA Enhancement. ({{Caused by: org.apache.openjpa.util.MetaDataException: The type "class org.apache.fineract.infrastructure.core.domain.AbstractPersistableCustom" has not been enhanced.}})
> One solution would be that I  resurrect my (very!!) old OPENJPA-1412 (with OPENJPA-1879 and OPENJPA-1887, see [https://openjpa.apache.org/enhancement-with-eclipse.html|https://openjpa.apache.org/enhancement-with-eclipse.html)] ... I'm JOKING!
> Another much easier and perhaps more feasible approach could be to make the IDE use the same classes produced by and already enhanced during the Gradle build on the CLI?
> PS: Once we have FINERACT-764, it would also be great of all ITs (first the SpringBootLoginTest and then others) could be run directly within the IDE, instead of only via Gradle on the CLI.  That should, in theory, "just work" - when we resolve this.
