[Jetty-support] Looking for Recommendations on How To Work with Jetty In Eclipse

[Andrew M. <mcg...@ya...>]

Hi,

I've been using Eclipse for a couple of years and I'm starting to 
work with a preexisting Jetty application and I'm trying to get 
setup to debug Jetty code in Eclipse.

I'm using Eclipse 3.3 and Jetty 6.1.5.

I've found JettyLauncher (an Eclipse plug in), but it says that my jetty 
install directory is invalid.  It seems that there is a problem with
JettyLauncher and Jetty > v4.  Can anyone comment if this tools is still 
useful or is effectively obsolete?

I've also found Jetty Generic Server Adaptor and Jan was kind enough to 
give me some pointers, but I haven't had success with this yet.  I did 
the following steps:
- Installed Eclipse 3.3
- Installed jetty to c:\jetty-6.1.5
- Set JETTY_HOME to c:\jetty-6.1.5
- Installed the plug in from http://www.webtide.com/eclipse

I thought that if I went to File->New->Other I would see a folder called 
Server (as per http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Web+Tooling+Support ) 
but I see nothing. Am I looking in the wrong place?

According to my configuration, the plugin is present and happy.  Can anyone
recommend a log file to look at for errors?


Is there another simpler way to debug a Jetty application that 
I've overlooked?

Any pointers on any way to get going with Jetty/Ecplise would be very welcome!

           Thanks,
                    Andrew.
