-----------------------------------
Really appreciate someone looking at it.....usability issues are hard to argue and usually
get closed with that is the way we do it, so seriously, a HUGE thanks!!! We did get it to
work finally but the effort was quite a bit more than MyEclipse but the other features
like EL completion rock!!!!!! glad we switched. It was an effort and we almost gave up
but glad we finally got it working!!!
THANKS,
Dean

Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Seam
Affects Versions: 3.0.0.GA, 3.0.1.GA, 3.1.0.M1, 3.1.0.M2
Environment: any
Reporter: deanhiller
Fix For: 3.2.next
We currently work in MyEclipse and everything works awesome. JBoss tools has some other
features we want, but alas, we can't set our project up in jboss tools. There seem to
be too many issues. Not sure if this is a feature request or bug (ie. I can't use the
product without this feature so does that make it a bug?)
Issue #1 : We have a dependency on an EJB3 project and those class files never get
deployed to the server so the server ends up with ClassNotFoundException(ie. we can't
debug unless we do attach source and then hot deploy fails unlike MyEclipse which works
like a charm).
Issue #2 : As soon as we give jboss tools our webroot which is
project/input/webroot/WEB-INF, it copies all the libraries and class files there which is
causing havoc with our source control and our ant build system as generated files are NOT
suppose to ever be put in project/input directories. We have a special output directory
if you need a location OR you could change to the way MyEclipse does it and put it on the
server....either way, this should be configurable so it is not screwing with people's
build systems.
Our custom directory structure works for jar projects and war projects and looks like so
project
---input
------javasrc - the *.java files
------libexclude - the jar files that do not go to WEB-INF/lib
------libinclude - the jar files that should be put in WEB-INF/lib
------webroot - all the xhtml files and jpgs
---------WEB-INF - all descriptor files
jboss tools throws all this junk stuff in WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes when it should
not generate anything unless there is an override for it. All of this stuff works in
MyEclipse and we would love to switch but can't. I have seen other posts related to
this same issue.
