[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - installation questions on XP home.

[kishjeff]

Greetings.

I installed standalone JBoss into C:\Apps\JBoss\jboss-5.0.0.GA
Then I found a mini tutorial and created this project and got it to run
C:\Documents and Settings\jeff kish\Desktop\Projects\JBoss\HelloWorld

Then I decided I would like to use Eclipse to work with JBoss.

I read that the easiest thing to do was download jboss ide
so I downloaded soa-4.3.0.GA.zip.

I started having some questions.. 
I didn't see eclipse.exe in the ginormous download (557Mg) so I figured it didn't have eclipse there. The instructions I found said it would so I am mismatching my instructions with my downloads.

So I looked online and saw the directories aren't quite the same in the zip as this documentation: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/jboss/jboss-eap-4.3/doc/Getting_Started/html-single/index.html


So I decided to just download the entire windows eclipse plug-in set and eclipse.
I installed Ganymede (latest eclipse).
I downloaded and installed the plug-in set for windows:
JBossTools-ALL-win32-3.0.0.CR2-R200901280154.zip

Now could someone point me to how to get these working together?

I've used weblogic and eclipse before.. if I recall I just had to supply some command line args to eclipse to start it with enough memory, and tell the debugger to use something like port 9000 or something after building the project in eclipse.

Or should I go back to the enormous 557Mb zip file and use that?

thanks
Jeff
