It also includes targeting WTP - projects, such as Dynamic Web Projects, to certain server runtimes in order to ensure that the - proper jars from a specific server are added to the project's classpath - properly.</para> - <para>In order to get started creating, running, and debugging J2EE applications, we should create - our <property moreinfo="none">runtime</property> and <property moreinfo="none">server</property> instances.</para> - - <section> - <title>Runtimes</title> - <para>In <property moreinfo="none">JBoss Tools</property>, the main purpose of Server Runtimes is to point to a - server installation somewhere on disk.

The last one comes with its own new feature, that is a safer - incremental deployment, which prevents partial deployments to be picked up by the server. It - means that scanning for auto-deployment is suspended while files are being copied to the - deployment location and resumed when the copy is completed.</para> - - <note> - <title>Note:</title> - <para>Currently we recommend you to use a fully supported JBoss 4.2 server adapter.</para> - </note> - - <para>You'll also note a Deploy-Only Runtime type. This type provides no classpath - for WTP projects. It is used solely by its server type for the purpose of setting up a - deploy directory for users who don't wish to make use of starting, stopping, or - debugging their projects inside eclipse.</para> - - <figure float="0" id="add_runtime_figure"> - <title>Adding a JBoss 4.2 Runtime</title> - <mediaobject> - <imageobject> - <imagedata fileref="images/runtimes_servers/runtimes_servers_3.png"></imagedata> - </imageobject> - </mediaobject> - </figure> - - <para>The following table describes all the available options of the currant wizard - page.</para> - <table> - <title>Server Runtime Wizard Parameters</title> - <tgroup cols="2"> - <colspec align="left" colnum="1" colwidth="1*"></colspec> - <colspec colnum="2" colwidth="3*"></colspec> - - <thead> - <row> - <entry align="center"> - <para>Name</para> - </entry> - - <entry align="center"> - <para>Description</para> - </entry> - </row> - </thead> - - <tbody> - <row> - <entry> - <para>Name</para> - </entry> - <entry> - <para>The name of a new Runtime for a chosen server.

Web projects of <property moreinfo="none">JBoss Tools</property> are - Struts, JSF and Seam projects. All of them are called faceted projects. Thus, in this - chapter we are going to tell you about facets the main benefit of which to provide proper - structuring and packaging for any type of project.</para> - - <section> - <title>Faceted Projects Overview</title> - <para>The idea behind faceted projects is that each project can accept units of - functionality, or facets, which can be added or removed by the user. Most often, these - facets either add to the project's classpath, enable a builder, or watch the project in - some other fashion. Generally, every project concerned has at least one facet when - it's created. As an example, a Web project has a WebDoclet facet, or an EJB - Project has an EJB Module facet as prerequisites.</para> - - <para> WTP projects have undergone some criticism as being - <emphasis>over-engineered</emphasis> or too restrictive in their design. WTP projects - are set up in a tree-relationship to each other, where one project can be a child of - another. For example, an EAR project may have a Web Project child, an EJB project child, - or other types.</para> - - <para> However, the benefit of this is that the structure of your projects is then known, - and packaging it up *should* be trivial.
