I believe FFJCE3.0 uses Tomcat 3.2. You should get Tomcat 3.2.3 with the latest bug fixes. You could also use Tomcat 4.0.1 which also has the fixes as well as latest features. I don't think it would slow down the development process if you use Forte as a debugging tool. It would work just as well with the new jsp/servlet container. I think the hard part would be the initial setup.
If you'd like to use an updated version of Tomcat, I'm including some instructions on how to get the two to talk to each other. They're for Solaris and Win32. Justy ---- Everything in these instructions assumes JDK1.3.1_01. Install your webapp into your tomcat server, making sure all the code you want to debug is compiled with -g. Start tomcat, making sure you give the proper arguments for the java runtime to enable debugging. With tomcat 4, you can do this by setting the env var CATALINA_OPTS appropriately: For Win32, use the lovely shared memory debugging option: SET CATALINA_OPTS=-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_shmem,address=jdbconn,server=y, suspend=n For more information consult the JDK tools docs for win32. For Solaris, use the socket option: -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n For more information consult the JDK tools docs for Solaris. You can probably do this on Linux as well. For detailed information about JPDA, the enabling technology for this debugging method, check out this document: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jpda/ Start FFJEE30. Make sure you close any existing "Project" instance you may have in the editor. In the FFJEE30 explorer window, mount the filesystems containing your source code. This enables you to set breakpoints in your code. This source code must be the code from which you compiled and deployed into your tomcat instance, above. Go to Debug->Attach. Change the "Debugger Type" to Default Debugger(JPDA). Win32 make the "Connector" be SharedMemoryAttach. In the "name" field, fill in the value of the "address" param to your tomcat JVM invocation, above we use jdbconn. Solaris make the "Connector" be SocketAttach. Make sure the Host is correct, and make sure the port matches the value of the "address" param for your tomcat JVM invocation, above we use 8000. Set breakpoints in your code in FFJ, then take the necessary action to make your code get executed. Now you can do all you want to do in a debugger. ---- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dirk Versavel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 2:19 AM Subject: Re: <jsp:include> and relative path for included file > Thanks for your answer! > > Which version of tomcat do you advice me to use then instead of the tomcat > 3.2 which comes with Forte For Java 3.0 CE? > > Is there an easy way to upgrade the, in Forte integrated, tomcat engine? > > Currently, I'm quite happy with Forte for Java 3.0 CE as a development > environment for JSP/servlet applications and the way tomcat is integrated > makes developing and testing very productive.
