Daniel,

 

good for you.

 

But wouldn't it be great if you could share with us how exactly you did it? :)

Apparently, this is not trivial to do.

 

Well, it is absolutely trivial: install Eclipse 4.2 Java EE. Install JBoss Tools from Marketplace (you'll automatically get 4.0.1). Then from servers select JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.1 (Tech Preview), and in the new server dialog point it to the directory where you unzipped JBoss EAP 6.1.

 

It's a shame that 6.1 is only supported for Eclipse 4.2. Why does JBoss change so much between JBoss EAP versions that (appearently) such dramatic changes are needed to the WTP runtime?

 

Note that JBoss EAP 6.1 is also the default that you get at OpenShift. Everyone got automatically upgraded to it when it was released last week, so OpenShift users don't have a choice. They can't stay at 6.0.1.
